Andrew Gaff has reportedly turned his back on a huge free agency offer from North Melbourne to sign a new AFL deal with West Coast.

The star winger has agonised over the big career decision but is believed to have put months of indecision behind him on Sunday when he informed the Roos he will stay in Perth.

The 26-year-old, who missed the Eagles’ premiership triumph after copping an eight-game ban for punching Fremantle’s Andrew Brayshaw, is out of contract and had been mulling a return to home state Victoria.

More to come.
