Brant Colledge Biography

Following the loss of their elimination final against the Bulldogs, the Eagles delist experienced duo Patrick McGinnity and Jamie Bennell as well as rookies Kane Lucas, Brant Colledge, Alec Waterman and Corey Adamson.

Brant Colledge, who tested the waters during the recent NAB AFL Trade Period, is delisted by the Eagles but is contracted for 2016 and will return to the club in the rookie draft, if not picked up by another club.

Brant Colledge has re-signed with West Coast for a further two years.

"It's good to get something like that (re-signing) out of the way, so that I can concentrate on my footy, especially coming into WAFL finals," Colledge said.

The Eagles have high hopes for Colledge despite the 19-year-old's injury issues over his first two seasons at West Coast. He played two matches earlier this season after some impressive form in the NAB Challenge.

"Obviously the start of the year was good for me and I got my opportunity to play my first game against St Kilda, which was amazing. I had a few injuries through the middle of the year, but back into it now and hopefully I can get back into the AFL team, and East Perth finals are coming up as well."

Brant Colledge has been cleared of serious facial damage after a sickening last-minute collision in the Foxtel Cup match with Norwood.

While the Royals advanced to the semi-finals with a dominant win, the focus fell on the clash between Colledge and his Eagles teammate Scott Lycett.

In the final minute of the contest, Colledge was running back with the flight of the ball as he ran deep inside the East Perth forward 50. Lycett was running the other way and launched at the ball, colliding with Colledge at full tilt.

Colledge was assisted from the ground and taken to hospital but was released after an examination.

Brant Colledge makes his AFL debut for West Coast with 8 disposals (4 kicks and 4 handballs), a mark and 4 tackles in a 25-point win over St Kilda.
