West Coast Career
Chick returned to Perth as part of a trade deal to play with West Coast for 2003. He eventually became a versatile tagger, shutting down many opponents. However his 2003 season was crippled by AC joint injuries and eventual surgery. 2004 and 2005 were better years where Chick became a key contributor. Season 2006 included many highlights for Chick including 5 goals against Essendon in round 8. Chick played a vital role in the 2006 AFL Grand Final win. During the last quarter Chick smothered an attempted kick by Sydney's Ryan O'Keefe and via the collection, handball and shepherd set up a pivotal Adam Hunter goal. In September 2007, West Coast released a statement of their intent to delist Chick at the end of October 2007.

From the west unto the east
Any day now, any day now,

“On the Coast of Coromandel
Where the early pumpkins blow,
In the middle of the woods
Lived the Yonghy-Bonghy-Bo.
Two old chairs, and half a candle,—
One old jug without a handle,—
These were all his worldly goods:
In the middle of the woods,”
—Edward Lear (1812–1888)

—Margaret S. Mahler (1897–1985)
