The West Coast Eagles is pleased to announce the appointment of Anthony Jones to the role of assistant strength and conditioning coach.
The 2007 Sandover medallist and former Fremantle Docker will also join inaugural West Coast Eagles squad member John Gastev as a match day runner in 2009.
High performance manager Glenn Stewart said Jones’ unique skills set would make him a welcome addition to the club.
“The best thing about having Anthony on board is that he not only has a significant amount of AFL football experience, but he also has qualifications in strength and conditioning, with a Bachelor of Science majoring in sports science,” said Stewart.
“We’re in a fortunate situation that we’re able to put someone on who has the skills to develop the physical capacity of the players, already with the experience of being at an AFL club, having been with Fremantle for nine years.
“Anthony’s combination of skills is quite unique and is a decided advantage for us.”
Jones will commence his role with the club early in the New Year.
