(33rd Eagles player)
A long-time servant of West Perth, Paul Mifka was added to the inaugural West Coast squad after three solid seasons at the Falcons.
West Coast career[]
Given a debut in the final game of 1987 along with fellow Falcon Sean King, Mifka performed reasonably with 14 touches but was dropped from the list at the end of the year.
Post-VFL career[]
The wingman slash defender played on with the Falcons until 1999, racking up 283 games and a best and fairest and retiring after the 1999 premiership, his second (having also played in the 1995 flag). He also had a stint at the Brisbane Bears in 1991 but failed to play a senior game.
