For Round 23, we're proud to celebrate Bryce, a devoted Eagles member whose connection to the club is built on family, friendship and a lifelong love of the Eagles.
A lifelong connection
For Bryce, the West Coast Eagles have never just been a football team. The Club has been a constant throughout his life, helping create lasting memories with the people closest to him.
"The club will always be important to me, it's always been something that's involved friends and family. The Club has been a part of my life as long as I remember and will always be no matter where I am."
That sense of connection is what makes being an Eagles member so meaningful. Whether he's cheering from the stands or watching from afar, Bryce knows he'll always have a place within the Eagles family.
The week that had it all
If Bryce could relive one moment in Eagles history, he wouldn't choose just one game. Instead, he'd revisit one of the most memorable weeks the Club has ever experienced.
"The 2018 prelim and Grand Final, that whole week."
Like many Eagles supporters, Bryce still remembers the incredible energy that surrounded the Club during its charge to premiership glory.
"The incredible atmosphere that honestly might never be topped at the home prelim, followed by being there to see us come back and win the Grand Final."
For Bryce, it was a week that perfectly captured the passion, belief and unity that makes the West Coast Eagles community so special.
Never missing a moment
When it comes to following the Eagles, Bryce doesn't miss many matches.
"It all revolves around the game, whether I'm at home watching it or going to the game, I do everything I can not to miss a game."
And if circumstances ever force him to miss one?
"When I do miss one, nobody is allowed to talk to me about it until I get to watch it myself."
It's a tradition many football fans can relate to, ensuring every moment is experienced firsthand, free from spoilers.
Inspired by passion and perseverance
When asked which current Eagle he's most excited to watch, Bryce points to one of the Club's emerging players.
"I have to go with Milan Murdock, you can see the passion in the way he plays and is in each game."
What stands out most to Bryce is the way Murdock has embraced his opportunity at AFL level.
"He's been achieving the dream this year and showing that he's earnt it."
That passion and commitment are qualities Bryce admires, and he looks forward to seeing what the talented Eagle can achieve in the years ahead.
A reminder of what it means
If Bryce had the chance to address the team before they took the field, his message would be one of perspective, belief and pride.
"Block out the noise, it's been tough but the signs are there."
He wants the players to remember not only why they first fell in love with football, but also the impact they have on the next generation of Eagles supporters.
"Go out and play for the kid that wanted this and the kids that want it now. Show them what it means to be a part of this Club."
Through his lifelong support, unwavering commitment and deep connection to the West Coast Eagles, Bryce embodies what it means to be All the Way West. Members like Bryce help make the Club what it is, standing proudly behind the team through every challenge, every victory and every memorable moment along the way.
