Tom Swift (born 6 July 1990) is an Australian rules footballer for the West Coast Eagles in the Australian Football League.

[edit] Early life

Swift was once regarded by Michael Voss as the best 16 year old footballer he had ever seen. However, Swift then suffered two serious knee injuries and consequently played only a handful of games over the next two years. After a good performance at the 2008 AFL Draft Camp, he was selected at pick 20 in the ensuing Draft by the West Coast Eagles.^[1]

[edit] 2009 season

Swift performed well in the WAFL for Claremont in first half of 2009 and was named to make his debut for West Coast against Carlton in Round 10.^[2] He has since played six games at AFL level and experienced his first win against Essendon in round 18, when he also kicked his first two goals.
