West Coast Eagles training notes including Harley Reid, Liam Ryan, Liam Duggan, Bo Allan and Jake Waterman

All eyes were on West Coast star Harley Reid during training on Tuesday to see how he’d reacted from a weekend where he was criticised for his performance against Gold Coast. Here’s what we saw on the track. Harley Watch There’s been an enormous focus on star midfielder Harley Reid after he was well below his best against Gold Coast. Reid has been heavily criticised for his behaviour during the game and the lack of impact he had. He trained in bright purple runners instead of footy boots but appeared in good spirits. Some of the fans at the session were quick to cheer him on too from over the fence. All eyes will be on Reid’s performance this weekend against Brisbane. Tuesday stocktake The majority of the squad from Sunday’s loss to Gold Coast trained but there were some key players missing. Jake Waterman didn’t appear as he continues to nurse a calf problem and Jack Hutchinson’s hamstring also had him indoors. Oscar Allen, Liam Duggan, Jamie Cripps and Tom Cole didn’t appear until midway through the light session and did little as they recovered from the opening game. Liam Ryan (hamstring) and Bo Allan (illness) both trained despite being unavailable against the Suns. Elliot Yeo was still doing solo training up and down the grandstand stairs. Depth check The 22 men who played against the Suns didn’t spend a lot of time on the field but that provided the opportunity to see who could potentially come into the team if coach Andrew McQualter makes changes. There were 15 players in the WAFL group: Liam Ryan, Bo Allan, Bailey Williams, Ryan Maric, Tom Gross, Harry Barnett, Harvey Johnston, Clay Hall, Lucca Grego, Jack Williams, Jobe Shanahan, Loch Rawlinson, Malakai Champion, Hamish Davis and Sandy Brock. Jack Petruccelle went back inside with the AFL group despite not playing against the Suns. Strong support Despite the thumping loss and West Coast’s lack of wins in recent seasons, the fans remain out in force. There was a surprising number of fans at training for a Tuesday morning, as they took the opportunity to cheer on their players. Duggan was among a small group of players to take photos and provide autographs for the fans at the end of the session. He even became a photographer for some people wanting a shot alongside Elijah Hewett.
