Werribee premiership player and star Jack Henderson has been welcomed to West Coast to trail for one of the two list vacancies.
The Eagles will have a second spot to fill on their roster following the long-term knee injury Dom Sheed suffered last week, which ultimately ruled him out for the 2025 season.
Henderson has been at the Tigers since 2021, and took his game to a new level in 2024, claiming a premiership medallion and the Norm Goss Medal as best afield in the decider against the Southport Sharks.

The 24-year-old averaged 21.1 disposals, 5.4 tackles and 4.1 marks for the year, kicking 15 goals as well.
Henderson dominated the 2024 VFL grand final, gathering 23 disposals, eight tackles, seven marks and two goals, trumping the Sharks by six points.
West Coast has already welcomed delisted Gold Coast stopper Sandy Brockย for a train-on stint over the summer, with the 22-year-old recently joined by recently cut St Kildaย James Van Esย in pushing for the sole list spot at Laithlain Park during the SSP.
The club is reported to have spoken with former Melbourne and GWS defenderย Adam Tomlinson in recent weeks about a potential SSP deal, but no move has been locked in yet.
Tomlinson has signed with North Melbourne's VFL program for the 2025 season but could still be up for consideration.
