Why This Eagles LineupBefore we look at why Mike Tolkin picked the team he did, a little note about Tonga. The Eagles are 1-5 against Tonga, and it’s kind of hard to see why. They have had a better team on paper in most of those games, but somehow didn’t get the victory. Most recently in 2013 in Carson, Calif., they just played badly. Almost everyone played badly.
Drop Goals Still Eagle Rarity
The record for most drop goals in test matches is 36 by Jonny Wilkinson of England.
Wallace Says Eagles Ready
Back for another round with the Eagles is former Chuckanut and St. Mary’s All American Nick Wallace, who has suddenly become the top choice at prop.
