West Coast EaglesSince they entered the league in 1987 under the former VFL banner, the Eagles have always worn a gold & royal blue in some form.In their initial seasons, West Coast wore the basic gold with royal blue shoulder panels on both sides, an eagle motif on the front, through to the mid nineties this design was reversed becoming a predominately royal blue and gold jumper with gold instead of blue eagle motif.At the beginning of 1995 the light royal blue was replaced by a much darker shade, which come the new millennium became strictly a home Guernsey, one of the original lighter royal blue jumpers being their first away design before a more complicated almost black with orange and red large eagle styled Guernsey was worn for matches outside Perth.Not proving as popular as the originals, West Coast only briefly used these much more complicated and busy Guernseys before returning to a more traditional royal blue & gold jumper for both home & away matches.The club has worn different Pre Season Guernseys, experimenting with striped royal blue & gold chest panels and larger eagle motif across the front and also a bright yellow more than gold but as their heritage round jumpers have showed, even though one of the leagues newer than most clubs, tradition is important, back to where they started, the royal blue & gold of the late 1980s, the preferred Guernsey of the modern day Eagles.
