Description

Adam Murray Selwood (1 May 1984 – 17 May 2025) was an Australian rules footballer who played 11 seasons for the West Coast Eagles in the Australian Football League (AFL). Originally from Bendigo, Victoria, Selwood was recruited by West Coast in the third round of the 2002 National Draft. He made his debut for the club in 2003, and received a nomination for the AFL Rising Star two seasons later, in 2005. Alternating between midfield and defensive roles, Selwood played in West Coast's 2006 premiership win over Sydney, and also represented Australia in the 2008 International Rules Series against Ireland. He retired at the end of the 2013 season, having played 187 games for the club.

A member of the Selwood family, Selwood had three brothers: twin brother Troy (1984–2025), Joel, and Scott. Selwood had two children. He was found dead during a welfare check by police on 17 May 2025, aged 41, in Herdsman, Western Australia, three months after Troy had died by suicide. It would later be revealed Adam had also committed suicide.
