\u201cI spoke to him the other day about how difficult a position it is when you\u2019re a player that\u2019s out of contract and you haven\u2019t had much opportunity,\u201d Eagles coach Andrew McQualter said before the club\u2019s final game of the season.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou need a lot of grit to be able to put your focus towards what\u2019s important and he\u2019s done a great job with that.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we\u2019ve all seen the last three weeks what we were hoping we would see from Campbell as a player, and he\u2019s got a really exciting future with our football club.\u201d<\/p>\n
In terms of other potential additions, Carlton has been linked to delisted West Coast speedster Jack Petruccelle. <\/p>\n

DOCKER KNOCKS BACK INTEREST TO STAY LOYAL<\/p>\n
Young gun Neil Erasmus has rejected considerable rival interest to stay put at Fremantle and is set to sign a three-year deal at the club in coming days.<\/p>\n
7News Perth\u2019s Ryan Daniels reported on Monday afternoon that the 21-year-old will stay at Cockburn until at least the end of 2028, as clubs such as the Western Bulldogs and cross-town rivals West Coast expressed interest in the outside midfielder.<\/p>\n
Erasmus played a career-high 16 matches at senior level this year, three of which were at the starting substitute.<\/p>\n
He was dropped at multiple points throughout the season but gritted his way back into the side through the WAFL at Peel Thunder.<\/p>\n
Erasmus was one of Fremantle\u2019s best in their heartbreaking one-point loss to Gold Coast in last Saturday\u2019s elimination final at Optus Stadium.<\/p>\n
Given the retirements of Nat Fyfe, Michael Walters and Quinton Narkle, the Dockers look set to make few changes to their list this off-season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"An out-of-contract West Coast midfielder has reportedly requested a trade to Carlton.
