EAST Fremantle’s busy off-season has continued with the signing of former Essendon midfielder Nick Kommer on a two-year deal.

“It’s great to be back in the west and playing in the WAFL,” Kommer said.
“I’m looking forward to meeting and playing alongside a new bunch of lads with an up and coming young list.”
Kommer is East Fremantle’s third off-season recruit with AFL experience.
Dockers ruckman Jon Griffin was announced as a new member of the side last week, while Bull Creek-Leeming product Jarrad Jansen joined a month earlier following stints with Geelong and Brisbane.
Head coach Rob Wiley said Kommer’s approach would be welcome in a side that won just three matches during the 2017 campaign.
“His pace, aggression and competitiveness will go a long way as we move forward,” he said.
