WAFL round five
It remains tight in the WAFL but it’s beginning to look like six teams (well five) will be jostling for the final finals spot.
Many years ago I was leaving East Fremantle Oval after a big Sharks loss and found myself behind a father and son.
“Dad, we’ve still won the most premierships haven’t we?”
“Yeah mate, we’re still the best.”
Last week we mentioned the importance of round four for Subiaco, Swan Districts and Perth. Well they all won – by margins of one point, nine points and one point – and so the ladder has bunched up with only the Eagles looking to be without hope.
WAFL round three
It’s not often a team scores 10 goals in the first quarter and losses. It’s not often a team doesn’t score a goal in two quarters and wins. At Northampton East Fremantle used the howling wind and blew East Perth away in the first quarter scoring 10.4 (64) to 1.4 (10). For the rest of the afternoon, in front of an enthusiastic country crowd, the Royals chipped away and in the end just ran out of time for the impossible victory.

A Song. A Place. A Time.
