West Coast have welcomed club great Shannon Hurn back into the fold just a year after he retired from the AFL . The 33-year-old will rejoin the Eagles ahead of the 2025 pre-season as a development coach focusing on game fundamentals. The announcement described the position as “an important role in fast-tracking” the team’s young list after three difficult seasons. “I always had in the back of mind that I would take a year off and then make a decision about what I wanted to do,” Hurn said.

I have seen a few things, so it will be just nice to be able to pass that back to the player group and help them get back to being a successful footy club. “Obviously the last few years haven’t been great and this is a good opportunity to be back in football and especially at West Coast.” Hurn’s appointment preempts West Coast appointing a new senior coach, with the final three candidates still being interviewed.
