Adam Simpson
Simpson inked a new deal with the Eagles on the eve of their illustrious finals series last year, signing on until the end of 2022, yet a return to Arden Street could certainly be on the cards.
The former North Melbourne captain joined West Coast in 2014 and has lead the Eagles to four consecutive finals appearances, including last years premiership run.
“I think they know where I stand with it all. It’ll be old news pretty quickly for me,” Simpson said.
“We’ve got a lot on our plate as it is. I’m really happy where I’m at.
“I’m contracted and I’m really happy where I am. I’m at the start of a four-year contract and we’ve just come off a premiership. So, I’m happy where I’m at.”
The reigning premiership coach will be at the top of the Kangaroos' wish list, with the Roos looking to rejuvenate the 'shinboner' spirit back into the club.
It's likely that North will throw the 'kitchen sink' at Simpson, who will attract a pool of players towards the club, who currently sit on a war-chest of available salary.
Simpson is joined by John Longmire and Alistair Clarkson as candidates the Kangaroos would welcome back to the club as their new man at the helm. Both Longmire and Clarkson have been ruled out of moving away from their current positions, leaving Simpson as North's top target for 2020.
