Claremont product Mikayla Western enjoyed a breakout AFLW season in 2022, playing eight games before an arm injury cut her campaign short. She returned strongly in 2023 and has continued to establish herself as one of West Coast’s most influential midfielders, renowned for her speed, defensive pressure and trademark chase-down tackles. Western played a key role in the Eagles’ historic first AFLW finals campaign in 2025 while also stepping into the vice-captaincy, further highlighting her leadership and importance to the group. Her impact on and off the field was recognised with a contract extension through to the end of 2027. After suffering an ACL injury late in the 2025 season, Western has been moved to the inactive list for 2026 as she continues her recovery.
