Vale Shane Evans

The Club extends sincere sympathy to the family, former teammates and friends of Shane Evans, who passed away recently following a long illness.

Shane was a prominent player for us during the 1990’s, representing the Club in 92 matches from 1994 to 1998. He had previously played for East Perth but transferred to us and became a valuable member of the mid-field.

Shane suffered from Motor Neurone Disease for a number of years. This is the same affliction that AFL great Neale Daniher is fighting and is publicly raising awareness of it in order to hopefully one day have a cure found for it.

A young man taken far too early, Shane Evans will be remembered by all who were involved with the Club during his time with us.
