MARK LeCras says his playing future is the last thing on his mind, with the West Coast veteran turning his full focus to the Eagles' premiership push.

LeCras, who turned 32 on Thursday, has enjoyed a renaissance in 2018 after overcoming the hip and back problems which threatened his career last year.   

Despite missing two games with a lingering wrist issue, the sharpshooter needs only one more major during finals to notch his 10th bag of at least 30 goals in a season.

The oldest Eagle on the list, LeCras is moving freely again and appears more than capable of playing on in 2019, but capturing an elusive flag is his No.1 priority.

"It's (playing on) a discussion that will be had after the season," LeCras told AFL.com.au.

"That's the furthest thing on my mind really, at the moment, I really want to make the most of the opportunity that we've got ahead of us.  

"It's an exciting time to be coming into the footy club and playing finals. 

"That (contract discussions) will all take care of itself post-season, I would have thought."

LeCras was in just his second season and missed out when West Coast won its last premiership in 2006, after being dropped following a two-disposal qualifying final against Sydney.

The Eagles have only appeared in one Grand Final since, the 2015 debacle against Hawthorn, and LeCras is desperate for another crack with an evolving side which defied expectations to finish second.  

"I suppose you realise how hard it is to put yourself in a position to have a good crack at the finals (as you get older)," LeCras said.

"Moving towards the later stages of your career it's a pretty exciting time to be playing finals, and I think the young guys at the footy club realise that as well."

LeCras has been invigorated playing alongside the kids, with first-year forwards Willie Rioli (25 goals), Liam Ryan (17), Jake Waterman (13) and the second-year Daniel Venables (eight) adding spark and speed up front.

"It's been awesome, actually," LeCras said.

"They bring a lot of energy and excitement to the group. They realise how good it is to be able to live out their childhood dreams and play AFL.

"They've been able to put it together pretty consistently for us throughout the year.

"I feel like our young guys are pretty level-headed. There's going to be a lot of guys telling them what to do (in finals), but they don't have to do anything different. 

"They've been able to play their role really well and also do some stuff with a little bit of magic.

"If they can go into the game (against Collingwood) with the same preparation they've been doing most of the year, they'll be in a good spot."

While LeCras could undergo wrist surgery at season's end, he is confident the injury won't be an issue during September.  

The Eagles should be close to full-strength when they host Collingwood in the qualifying final next Saturday, with only Nic Naitanui (knee), Andrew Gaff (suspension) and Eric Mackenzie (toe) unavailable for the rest of the season. 

Dual Coleman medallist Josh Kennedy (shin) covered the ground well at training this week and took part in match simulation after Friday's session was closed to media. 

Barring any setbacks, he and Lewis Jetta (calf) will be available to face the Pies.

"Anytime you can throw Kennedy back in the side it's going to help," LeCras said.

"It's not going to be about the one bloke though, it's about playing your role.

"It might make a few of the blokes walk a bit taller having him out there because he's such a good player."
