West Coast Eagles defender Blayne Wilson may lose spot despite impressive AFL debut West Coast debutant Blayne Wilson marks the ball in front of St Kilda forward Beau Maister. WEST Coast defender Blayne Wilson knows he faces a battle to hold his spot in the team despite an impressive AFL debut last Sunday. Wilson had 21 disposals and 10 marks as the Eagles edged out St Kilda by four points at Etihad Stadium, with his accurate kicking also a highlight. But the Peel Thunder product is not holding his breath for a second game against Hawthorn on Friday week. The Eagles are likely to welcome back captain Darren Glass and fellow defenders Beau Waters and Will Schofield from injury, meaning Wilson could be an unlucky omission. "We've got a few good players coming back, so it's not really in my control," Wilson said. I've done the best that I can, but we have got some pretty good players coming back...a few good backmen, so we'll see what happens. Wilson, 21, looked at home in his first AFL game, which came almost three years after he was drafted to the Eagles. Injuries during his first two years on West Coast's list halted his progress, but an off-season move to East Perth under the new AFL-WAFL alignment model increased his chances of a senior debut. Sam Butler, who was playing his 100th game, and Blayne Wilson are sprayed with sports drink after West Coast's win. Wilson caught the eye of TV commentators during Sunday's match, in particular his ability to hit a target. "I was pretty happy with my first game, still got a fair bit to work on, but hopefully that will come later on," Wilson said. I felt pretty comfortable. I have played a couple of NAB Cup games before, so I sort of had a little bit of a feel. It was good to hit a couple of targets early. I think I butchered a couple late - Milne got that goal when I kicked it to him out of full-back. Wilson was involved in a crucial piece of play in the last quarter when Saints forward Nick Riewoldt fumbled while running into an open goal. Riewoldt managed to get boot to ball, but a determined Wilson was able to get a finger on it before it crossed the goal-line. "I was just thinking I've got to try and do something," Wilson said. I just kept going and was hoping he would fumble or do something and I was lucky enough to touch it, so I was pretty happy with it.
