Eight of the 16 Eker club representatives are gone, with Hansen likely to make it nine. This is a horrible time indeed for our cause.
Wiggins, Harding, Playfair and Callan have 'retired', Leigh Fisher, McMahon and Cameron Cloke have been delisted and Jamar is no longer an Eker due to his All-Australian selection.

How does Koshitzke manage to fly under the Eker radar ? Might not look an Eker in the true spirit of Ekemanship but has played his career out like the finest of Ekers.
This should be one of the criteria for ekerdom -- most of your highly-rated ekers on this thread have had short star periods (Farren's one great final vs. Collingwood for example) and then managed to eke out half a decade or more on the fringes of AFL lists as coach after coach try to rekindle what they are sure they saw in those few wonderful moments.
We can now add Wayde Skipper to this destinguished list- A big hearted Eker with very little talent. As tends to be the Eker way, his last season of AFL football was easily his best.

We salute you Wayde!
Western Bulldogs: We exist to win premierships
I have a feeling we haven't seen the last of Wayde Skipper.
Our 1954 premiership players are our heroes, and it has to be said that Charlie was their hero.
