After an injury interrupted preseason, Hewett split his 12 games across the AFL and WAFL Eagles teams in 2026 as he continued to develop his game. A key part of the Eagles’ emerging core group, Hewett has shown his exciting potential across 40 AFL games since being drafted with pick 14 in 2022. His burst from congestion, speed and ability to impact through the midfield and forward half remain key features of his game. Hewett also reinforced his commitment to West Coast in 2026, signing a contract extension that ties him to the club until at least the end of 2030. At a Glance: Junior Club: Caversham (WA). Debut: Round 2, 2023. Recruited from: Swan Districts (WA). Brownlow votes: 0.
