Inspiring skipper ‘Boots’ to retire

Inspirational West Coast Eagles captain Luke Shuey has today informed the club of his intention to retire at the end of the season.

After producing one of the great individual performances in Grand Final history, the 2018 Norm Smith medallist has decided to join another former captain Shannon Hurn in calling time at season’s end.

Shuey, a big game star and captain for the last four years, is also a dual John Worsfold medallist, was player of the finals in 2019 and also won the club’s emerging talent award in 2011.

“As much as my mind wants to go on, my body won’t allow it and I have made the decision to retire at the end of this season,” Shuey said.
