I had no idea he was that old.

I'm not into AFL at all but Todd certainly was a WA legend.

John Todd, WA football legend and former West Coast Eagles coach, dies aged 86

John Todd, one of the most influential figures in WA football history, has died at the age of 86.

Todd, who coached the West Coast Eagles for the 1988 and 1989 seasons, made his name in the Western Australian Football League (WAFL), first as a star player and later as a successful coach.

He burst onto the scene, debuting for South Fremantle's senior side as a 16-year-old in 1955.

He enjoyed a magical first year, taking out the Sandover Medal for the league's best and fairest player.
