West Coast, AFL Stars Farewell Premiership Player Adam Selwood
Adam Selwood, a beloved former West Coast Eagles premiership player, was mourned at a private memorial service in Perth following his sudden death at age 41, just months after the death of his identical twin brother, Troy Selwood. Adam was remembered as a selfless team player, a loving husband and father, and a key figure in West Coast's 2006 premiership team, with many past and present teammates such as Chris Judd, Ben Cousins, Josh Kennedy, and Nic Naitanui attending to pay their respects. The Selwood family, which includes other AFL players Joel and Scott Selwood, expressed profound grief and highlighted Adam's infectious personality and determination. Adam's death brought renewed attention to mental health issues in the AFL community, especially given the close timing to his brother Troy's passing, who died by suicide. Friends and former teammates continued Adam's charitable efforts by running a half-marathon in his memory to support suicide prevention. The memorial reflected the deep connections Adam had within the football world and the broader community, with tributes underscoring his role not only on the field but also in football development and leadership.
