KRIS Miller found some inspiration from an unexpected source over the summer that made his decision to play on in 2014 for him and now this Friday night that will result in him reaching 300 WAFL games in a remarkable milestone. Miller has been playing WAFL football since he made his league debut in 1999 with East Fremantle and he has been at South Fremantle since 2007, and his durability has been remarkable as he now prepares to become just the sixth player in history to play his 300th game this Friday night against Perth at Fremantle Oval.

EAST Fremantle forward Jack Perham is looking forward to returning home to Geraldton this Saturday as the Sharks take WAFL football back to the regional centre hosting another Round 1 winner Subiaco.

IT HAS taken Abe Davey five years since his league debut to reach 50 games with Subiaco to be just a sixth of the way to Kris Miller's 300, but he already knows the South Fremantle champion well and got the chance to play on him again in last Saturday night's season-opening win. Since making the move to Perth from Condingup, near Esperance, Davey made his league debut with Subiaco in 2009 and now has played 46 of the Lions' last 64 games as a half-back who can lock down on an opponent or provide plenty of run and drive either out of the back-line or off the wing.

NEW Claremont coach Michael Broadbridge sees no reason why the Tigers can't remain a premiership contender in 2014 despite the loss of a bevy of star players. It is easy to look at the list of departures from Claremont that includes Ian Richardson, David Crawford, Chad Jones, Paul Medhurst, James Thomson, Jesse Laurie and Andrew Browne, and think the Tigers might fall down the WAFL ladder in 2014. However, Broadbridge can't see that happening with the players departing opening up opportunities both for those in the side to take on more responsibility, and for others at the club to receive more regular chances in the league side.
