Geez somebody has told ya something that was meant to stay a secret.
He's playing for Woodville - West Torrens next season. He quit Subiaco just a couple of weeks ago.

As to the Eagles finding him employment, he is a plumber by trade so he could get work if he ran his own business.
Yeah, it was on the news.
It appears the Woodville part of the club has been erased. They referred to him now wearing the 'Blue and Gold' of the SA Eagles.
Obviously a report in the Perth media, although I'm sure it'll happen one day in Adelaide.
All I can say about Luke Toia coming to the Eagles is that I'm glad Woodville Oval is around the corner from the Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

Graham C ornes went the other way, he kept reporting on 5AA that Toia was playing for Woodville in 2004. I thought it may have just been a mistake, but you never know with Cornes ... he may not be aware that Woodville and West Torrens have merged.
Toia spoke with 2 clubs, W-WT Eagles and Glenelg. He said he chose the Eagles because of their "professional" approach. That probably means they offered him more money.

Cornes is right. Trust him with what he says.

Definitely Mc, I think they just wanted to go with some teaser saying "a former Docker is moving to the Eagles and it's not who you may think..". However, it annoyed me at the time. I always felt that Woodville were ripped off in the merger.

Agree, in poor taste, Im sure the Eagles wouldnt have gone for a player with his injury record if they thought there was any doubt about him. I personally think its a bit of a risk but Im prepared to give him a go and hopefully he will prove me (and everybody else) wrong.

In my opinion, they ALL should be, given some of the insipid and soft performances in BIG matches over the last few years

cornes always calls us woodville, and the stutterer can't get past woodville either.The media are meant to refer to us in all respects as THE EAGLES. the only place for woodville-west torrens is on the TSH trophy
He can't get past w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w-w.....
