No SSP rookie for Eagles with train-on players set to finish up

Subiaco forward Nick Martin recently finished his training period with the Eagles after straining a quad, while former Brisbane player Cedric Cox and Swan Districts defender Will Collins will continue for a final week.  

The deadline to sign players during the Supplementary Selection Period is March 9, with the Mid-Season Rookie Draft in early June the next window for AFL hopefuls.  

It is understood the Eagles are more likely to keep Venables available for selection, rather than make him 'inactive', which would have opened a list spot to be used during the SSP.
