RORY O'Brien could only dream of finals during his first 92 games with Peel Thunder and hope for them upon his return in 2016, but ahead of Sunday's preliminary final he is pinching himself over how his return to his original club has panned out. O'Brien grew up in Mandurah wanting to play with Peel Thunder and got his wish making a league debut in 2005 going on to play 92 games either side of a stint in the SANFL with North Adelaide in 2008. He won two fairest and best awards with the Thunder but there was nothing resembling team success on the horizon when he decided to leave for East Fremantle in 2011. Read More ...

SUBIACO veteran Wayde Twomey is now a 150-game WAFL player and isn’t sure what 2017 holds for him just yet aside from getting married, but what is on his mind is becoming part of history part of a hat-trick of premierships with the Lions. Twomey was again a key contributor in Subiaco's second semi-final win over South Fremantle at Medibank Stadium on Sunday that puts the Lions into a third straight grand final, and a 10th in the past 14 WAFL seasons. That is a remarkable record and the Lions already have one premiership hat-trick to their credit this century between 2006 and 2008. They are one win away from another if they can win next Sunday's Grand Final against either South Fremantle or Peel Thunder at Domain Stadium. Read More ...
