WEST COAST utility Andrew Embley looks set to finish his career at the the club after signing a two-year contract extension.
Embley has enjoyed another consistent season and is just one of five players at the Eagles to have played all 17 matches so far this year.
The 28-year-old said he was looking forward to being a part of the club's resurgence.
"I am very keen to be a part of the club's rise back up the premiership table and look forward to helping a lot of the young players on our list enjoy the success we achieved only a couple of years ago," Embley said.
"I very much want to be a part of the future and believe it can turn around very quickly given the talent at the club."
West Coast coach John Worsfold said he was 'thrilled' to have locked away the 2006 Norm Smith medallist.
"Andrew was at the club during some lean years and then was an integral player in our push towards finals, the top four and then grand finals in 2005 and 2006," Worsfold said.
"And he will again be a key player in the club's resurgence."
"It is always good to lock away our top line players and in addition to what he offers the team on-field, he can also provide important guidance for the talented group of young players on our list, both on and off-field. I am thrilled that he has re-committed to the club."
