Eagles Suffer 33-16 Loss to Buccaneers

The West Coast Eagles have appointed Andrew McQualter as their new senior coach, hoping to rebuild the team after a tough three-season run, winning only 10 games. McQualter, who has a solid coaching background with Richmond, aims to start fresh with all players, as significant changes are anticipated during the AFL trade period. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles faced a disappointing 33-16 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, where they struggled offensively, failing to gain yards for over a quarter. Coach Nick Sirianni called for fundamental changes following the loss, which marked the second time the Buccaneers eliminated the Eagles from playoff contention in three years. Jalen Hurts acknowledged the need for better production and efficiency, especially as injuries impacted the team's performance. The Eagles, once strong at 10-1, are now in a slump, having lost six of their last seven games.
