WAFL – Round 14: A pair of thrillers

Two cliffhangers in the WAFL on the weekend.

WAFL – Round 13: Swans sour Subi celebrations

It was meant to be Subiaco’s party, but Swan Districts was having none of it. Les Everett saw some good footy this week in the WAFL.

WAFL – Round 8: Slick, Dick show in Falcon Shark shootout

IT was the kind of game coaches hate and spectators love at East Fremantle Oval. The Sharks and Falcons kicked 45.11 between them confusing all sorts of arguments about negative footy and how modern players can’t kick for goal.

WAFL – Round 7: Sharks take out the ANZAC derby

South Fremantle have still to win a game in 2013 despite a plucky effort in the Anzac Day derby at Fremantle Oval.

WAFL: Tigers make it two in a row

Claremont are the 2012 WAFL premiers, defeating East Fremantle by 26 points. However, as Les Everett reports, the Tigers didn’t have it all their own way. Some terrific photos included.

WAFL Round 22: Final four final but movable

WELL I did my best to talk up a possible Perth derby round 24 elimination final… but alas… after round 22 the final four has been settled. There’s still some movement possible because this week first takes on second and third meets fourth. The top four confirmed their credentials by winning well in round 22 [Read more]

WAFL Round 19: It’s a one Tiger race

By Les Everett A FEW weeks back there were four genuine premiership contenders in the WAFL competition.

The battle of the top two at Claremont Oval started innocently enough but [Read more]

WAFL Round 17: East Fremantle makes a statement

By Les Everett EAST FREMANTLE started round 17 looking at a run of games that could turn them into premiership favourites or finals onlookers. They thrashed East Perth at home and now face the other two teams in the top four, Swan Districts and Claremont, in away games over the next couple of weeks.

Peel revive, Swans thrive, Falcons dive

WAFL – Round 14 As I wandered down to Fremantle Oval on Sunday to watch South Fremantle play Peel in round 14 of the WAFL I concluded there’s a good reason teams that have just sacked their coach tend to go pretty well first up. It’s about timing. If you’re considering getting rid of your [Read more]

WAFL Round 13: East Perth continue unbeaten run

By Les Everett EAST PERTH’S unbeaten run is now nine games but in round 13 they did it with a little less  frenzy. Boasting a ruck battery a number of AFL clubs would trade for the Royals came up against a weakened South Fremantle and put the game to bed in the first quarter. The [Read more]

Great days at East Freo

by Bruce Houston   As a ‘past player’ of East Freo I receive their regular mag. I was looking at it on the weekend and thought I must send you a list of EF players in the AFL. Surely, no other individual club could match it. I’d be pretty confident that EF would still hold [Read more]

Old East Fremantle Would Have Been A Contender

  by Rod Gillett and Dave Warner   When Paddy Ryder was awarded the Anzac Medal for his game for Essendon in this year’s match against Collingwood it occurred to me that here was yet another top-class player produced by the East Fremantle Football Club. I thought there was a story in it. I contacted [Read more]
