Kevin Eastermann

Kevin "Blue Jay Jesus" Eastermann is a former ruckfur for the Freemantle Panthers and Orange Miners, and the current head coach and team coordinator for the Perth Osprey Footballers Club (more commonly known as "The Ospreys"), as well as one of the club's founding members.

Early Exposure
Born in 1983 to a nurse practitioner and an accountant, the world of athletics was almost a foreign concept to a hatchling Kevin; it would be the constant treasure trove of ideas that is elementary school that would get him hooked on the idea of getting into sports. After days of pleading with his unenthusiastic and unsure parents (his father thought it would "only cause him bodily harm" and his mother was afraid of the costs), he was finally able to crack them, and he would join his hometown Mildura JFC the next week to a big ovation from his classmates.

Kevin would make his mark as a ruckfur very quickly, being one of the fastest and toughest competitors on the junior field. He wowed parents, coaches, and fans with intense movements that were seldom-seen outside of FAFL tapes; of course, after every game, it would be those exact tapes that would fill his mind with every play under the sun. His abilities to rile up his team and rally the crowd made him an obvious pick for JFC captain, a decision that would anger the parents of another member of the team: one Aiden Entwhistle.

Aiden and Kevin: Good Friends, Better Rivals
Aiden and Kevin were inseparably-good friends throughout school, and this connection would be easily-seen on the oval, but little did anyone know that their last year playing junior footie together would be the dawn of one of the greatest rivalries in Mildura JFC. When Kevin was announced as the captain for that year, Aiden Entwhistle's parents (who were well-known for being proprietors of entitlement) began to protest at practices. After several straight days of annoyances and interruptions of practices for their "insatiably whiny bollocks," they were finally thrown out by the umpires at their first game, to one of the loudest cheers the small field had ever heard.

Aiden and Kevin would become absolutely enthralled with being better than the other, and it showed in their stats: both of them were skyrocketing in their speed, strength, and durability, not wanting to look weak in front of their bitter rival. Their intense and ultimately-all-improving rivalry culminated with a showdown between the two at their last practice, attended by the parents of every single team member, and many parents of members of other clubs in the area. It would also be attended by scouts from the largest private school in the area: St. Joseph's College. The two would absolutely blow away the scouts and the audience, and both were signed for scholarship opportunities the next day.

St. Joseph's Finest
At St. Joseph's College, the two rivals fit right in with the championship-competitive football team and their physically-demanding playstyles and practices. Soon, Kevin would be the team's starting ruck, with Aiden as their lead substitute, starting in their sophomore year. It would also be their sophomore year where Kevin would earn the title he has kept throughout his life and career: Blue Jay Jesus.

It was the championship game of their incredible undefeated season, and the two teams, St. Joseph's and Constitution College, were tied in the fourth. With one minute left to play,
