Richmond premiership midfielder Jack Graham looks all but set to trade out his black and yellow for the Eagles guernsey in 2025 and beyond.
Long linked with a move from Punt Road which included touring Port Adelaide ahead of the 2023 season, it appears now Graham will depart the Tigers.
West Coast has been interested for multiple months, attempting to lure the South Australian free agent, meaning he won't cost any draft capital.
Barring a significant shift, Jack Graham looks set to be at @WestCoastEagles next season.

Graham is an unrestricted free agent as well, meaning Richmond can't match any bid from rival clubs.
This would be a massive coup for the Eagles, who are clearly at the beginning of their rebuilding phase while they are on the hunt for a new coach.
The club is also heavily into bringing in Graham's teammate Liam Baker, while Shai Bolton's desire to return to Western Australia also has West Coast considering their options, although they'd need to offer up selections to the Tigers to strike a deal.
However, despite the potential additions to the proud club, rivals have come hard for premiership defender Tom Barrass, who is genuinely weighing up a move to Victoria.
Young defender Harry Edwards is in a similar boat, but his exit is dependent upon the Barrass situation, given the club wouldn't like to lose both.
Graham's likely exit from Richmond could yield a compensation pick in the second or third round, given his age (26) and potential contract at the Eagles.
