Adam Simpson’s future as coach of the Eagles will be determined today at a scheduled meeting of the board today, according to Tim Gossage.
Simpson, who is contracted for 2025, has suffered through multiple tough years of struggles with West Coast stuck on the bottom of the ladder.
Gossage says while the board meeting is planned, the premiership coach’s future will be the number one item discussed.
“It is my understanding that the West Coast Eagles’ board meeting is today,” Gossage told SEN WA Breakfast.
“This is a planned meeting – not an extraordinary board meeting – and it’ll come as no surprise that Adam Simpson’s coaching future will be the number one item on today’s agenda.
“My information is the board could decide as early as today and announce today that Adam Simpson’s time as coach is up effective immediately.
“The board is meeting today, a standard board meeting, but Adam Simpson’s tenure is the number one item and it would come as no surprise if Adam Simpson was today informed out of that board meeting that his time is up effective immediately.
“There’s no point staying if the board has made a decision.”
