Recruited from: West Perth

Draft bio: The son of former Eagle Robbie, who played 13 games for the club during West Coast’s early 1990s golden era, West has forged a reputation as a tough and prolific midfielder at West Perth. The 22-year-old represented Western Australia at the under-18s championships in 2017 alongside the likes of Oscar Allen, Brayden Ainsworth, Aaron Naughton, Sam Taylor and Brandon Starcevich, and averaged almost 16 touches in three games. He has since added 40 senior games for the Falcons to his experience and looms as a handy pick-up to add to the Eagles’ developing midfield depth.
