Former Collingwood and North Melbourne Midfielder Ben Davies will return home to Williamstown in 2009. The hard running midfielder will add pace and experience to the Seagulls midfield group next year.

The former Western Jets player played 12 games for Collingwood from 2005-2007 after being originally drafted as a Rookie List player. At the end of 2007 he was traded to North Melbourne where he played 1 game in 2008 against Geelong in Round 11.

Ben will turn 23 in 2009 and is a great addition to the side that has finished the last 3 seasons in the Preliminary Final week.
