West Coast forward Isiah Winder was involved in an alleged incident this past weekend in Geelong that is being investigated by Victoria Police.

Seven Perth’s Ryan Daniels reported the allegation involved Winder being part of a physical altercation while under the influence of alcohol following the AFL/AFLPA Indigenous and Multicultural Players Summit.

Daniels added Winder has been stood down from the Eagles’ AFL program but can train with WAFL players and use club facilities.

Winder was one of over 100 AFL and AFLW players from Aboriginal, Torres Strait Island and Multicultural backgrounds to attend the summit which took place late last week.

Days prior he was re-drafted as a rookie by the club, having been delisted a month earlier.

Winder was the No.57 pick in the 2020 national draft and played seven games across his first two AFL seasons, including six in 2022.
