2021 is the 35th season of the West Coast Eagles football club and the club has often as stated below released it's current best ever side. The last one seems be team 25 which was ten years ago. Been thinking about this a lot I think there could be a few new inclusions for Team 35. I see an oddity between Team 20 and Team 25 where David Hart is not in 20 but is put back in 25 so I'll make sure that is noted when selecting 35.
Team of the Decade
In 1996 as part of the AFL's centenary celebrations, and the club's 10-year celebrations, the Eagles named a team of the decade. I'll include 7 subs 4 Interchange and 3 Emergencies but I'll count them as one unit.
Team 20
In 2006 the West Coast Eagles named a greatest team of the past twenty years as part of the club's twentieth anniversary celebrations:
Team 25
In 2011 the West Coast Eagles named a greatest team of the past twenty five years as part of the club's twenty fifth anniversary celebrations:
