West Coast forward Isiah Winder is under investigation by the Victorian Police after an alleged incident occurred this past weekend.

“The Eagles have been made aware of an incident in Geelong after the AFL/AFLPA Indigenous and Multicultural Players Summit involving player Isiah Winder,” the club wrote in a statement.

After being delisted by the WA club, the No.57 pick in the 2020 national draft was handed another chance by West Coast when he was recently re-drafted as a rookie having played six games last season.

“The club will fully cooperate with Victoria Police and provide support to Isiah through the investigation.”
