West Coast Eagles Wiki

West Coast's offseason was dominated for a second straight year by the pursuit of Geelong midfielder Tim Kelly, this time successfully obtaining the South Fremantle product in a monster trade. With little left in the way of draft picks, the Eagles picked up local products Callum Jamieson and Ben Johnson late in the draft. On the other side of the ledger, West Coast said goodbye to premiership midfielder Chris Masten and a number of depth players, including long-serving clubman Fraser McInnes.
