Brothers In Arms – Nick Hayes Returns!

The Woodville West Torrens Football Club is excited to share amazing news: Nick Hayes will be joining brother Jack in returning to Oval Ave in 2025!

Nick returns to the Club after four seasons at Werribee in the VFL. Throughout the 2024 season Nick passed 200 state league matches across the SANFL, VFL and NEAFL competitions. He also represented the VFL against the SANFL during the Gather Round festivities and then capped off his time in the VFL with a premiership for Werribee.

On his return to the Eagles Nick said, “The opportunity to play alongside Jack again excites me and played a big role in my decision to return to the Club. That said, some of my favourite football memories were made at this Club, and I’m hopeful we can create a few more together.”

On Nick’s signing coach Sam Jacobs said, “We are really excited to have Nick back at the Club and teaming up with Jack in Eagles colours once again. With a turnover of some experienced senior players last year, having someone with Nick’s experience will be such a valuable asset to our team. Nick is still playing at a really high level and as we know, he is capable of playing multiple roles which he will continue to do for us in 2025.”

Nick and his partner Zoe are set to return to Adelaide from Melbourne in mid March. We look forward to welcoming them both back to the Eagles in the coming months.
