We hold a single season for Eames, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 19, 9th of 20 of the 20 defensive midfielders in the A-League. At 18 Eames is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 0.8 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Central Coast Mariners finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
5.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — high defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (9th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Strengths
- Defensive volume. 5.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — does the unseen work.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 46.6% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
With a Rating of 18.8, Eames carries the 9th-highest potential of the defensive midfielders in the A-League of 20 — though on just 16 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as high defensive volume (5.73 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 18 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (100/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
