As widely expected, Jack Petruccelle, Callum Jamieson and Loch Rawlinson have not been offered contracts for 2026
 


Jarrad Schofield (midfield) and Ryan Turnbull (rucks) are departing the coaching panel and won’t be at the club in 2026

Took us just over a week to find a replacement for Mat Inness

Welcome to West Coast, Phil Merriman (after a solid delousing to wash off the purple)
 


One year contract extensions for Tom Cole and Jacob Newton who were out of contract

Tom McCarthy rewarded the outstanding start to his career with two years added to his existing contract taking him through the end of 2028
 


Mitch Duncan officially signs on as new backline coach to replace Luke Webster

Article also confirms that Sam Radford will be the midfield assistant coach following the departure of Jarrad Schofield
 


Brandon Starcevich officially joins the club on a 4 year deal through to 2029 via a complicated swap of picks between Brisbane, Fremantle and ourselves
 




Oscar Allen departs to join Brisbane as the worst kept secret in football over the last 6 months

West Coast receive pick 2 as compensation
 


Liam Ryan traded to St Kilda

West Coast exchange their 2027 R3 pick for St Kilda’s 2026 R2 pick in return
 



Campbell Chesser departs to Carlton for pick 41 after 4 frustrating, injury plagued years at West Coast

Disappointing to lose him as he showed in a late season burst that there was something there to work with.

Reduces the number of players from our 2022 list still at the club to just 11
 


Tylar Young joins the club on a 3 year deal after trading pick 38 to Richmond

Pick 38 is the R2 pick we acquired from Hawthorn last year as part of the Tom Barrass trade

Not player related and has been known for a couple of weeks ago after it was reported in the West, but strength and conditioning coach is departing the club to join the Western Force. He had been at the club for 3 years and seemed well liked by the players


There’s been no acknowledgment from the club that he’s leaving
 




Coen Livingstone has not had his contract extended

No announcement on either Cripps or Champion but have to assume they’ve been given new contracts since they weren’t delisted by the October 31 deadline
 


Belated confirmation that Jamie Cripps has been extended for another year

Still waiting for any confirmation on Champion getting a new contract

As has been expected, we have signed three new players to the rookie list as SSP signings.

Welcome to the club - Deven Robertson, Finn Macrae and Harry Schoenberg

Contract lengths have not been specified. It had been reported that Schoenberg was given a 1 year contract with triggers for an extension but no information for either Robertson or Macrae is currently available
