SUBIACO pulled off a stunning WAFL grand final victory over East Perth on Sunday at Patersons Stadium to claim the 2014 premiership with veterans, youngsters and recruits all pivotal to the triumph of the Lions. 1. Jason Bristow – 9.5 The 30-year-old had been a tremendous servant for Subiaco since arriving in 2008 from Melbourne but he was simply outstanding in the grand final victory as the best player on the ground and deservedly winning the Simpson Medal. After missing the 2008 premiership and then playing in the losing grand finals of 2009 and 2011, the flag is a just reward for the service provided over 114 matches. He had already proved himself able to deliver in a grand final as Subiaco's best player in the 2011 loss to Claremont, but this time he led his team to a flag with his physical approach perfectly suited to the wet conditions. He finished with 27 possessions, seven clearances, five tackles, four inside-50 entries and a crucial goal just before three quarter-time. Read More ...

SUBIACO has handled the wet conditions and grand final stage perfectly to hand East Perth a second straight grand final defeat to the tune of 16 points to win the 2014 premiership at Patersons Stadium. Despite East Perth being heavily favoured to win the 2014 premiership coming off losing last year's grand final to West Perth, then winning the minor premiership two games clear on top of the ladder and beating Subiaco in the second semi-final, the Lions had all the answers on Sunday. The wet conditions for the grand final suited the likes of Jason Bristow, Chris Phelan, Kyal Horsley, Chris Deluca and his younger brother Josh ideally, and Subiaco opened up a match-winning lead in the third quarter and won 11.16 (82) to 9.12 (66).

WEST Perth kicked the only three goals of the final quarter to beat Subiaco by 14 points in the WAFL reserves grand final to end a drought that stretches way back to 1960. The Falcons had not won a reserves premiership since 1960 and lost last year's grand final to South Fremantle, but finished the stronger over the minor premiers Subiaco on Sunday at Patersons Stadium to come away with the victory. Subiaco had finished the season clear on top of the reserves ladder and had a massive percentage while scoring a thumping second semi-final win also over West Perth, but the Falcons finished the better in the wet conditions of the grand final.

SWAN Districts was the best team in the WAFL colts all season and prevailed over Claremont in the grand final on Sunday morning at Patersons Stadium by 20 points, but the Tigers made them work for it. Swans lost just two matches all season and then advanced straight to the grand final with a thrilling second semi-final win over Claremont before the Tigers advanced to the decider with a one-point nail-biting victory over South Fremantle in the preliminary final. Swan Districts led all day in the grand final, though, kicking four goals into the breeze in the opening quarter and then dominating the last term with the advantage of the wind and in the driving rain to end up winning 11.9 (75) to 7.13 (55).

EAST Perth and Subiaco have shared a home ground for more than a decade now but will face off in a grand final for the first time since 1959 with the Royals and Lions set for a strong battle between the two standout teams of 2014. Either side retains the right to make a late change and that remains a possibility especially with the storms predicted for Sunday so it wouldn’t be a huge surprise, but right now East Perth will go into the grand final with the same 22 that won the second semi-final against Subiaco by 32 points. Subiaco meanwhile had three key players missing from its side that beat East Fremantle in last Sunday's preliminary final and captain Kyal Horsley, full-forward Matt Boland and half-forward George Hampson have all been named to come in for the grand final.

SUBIACO is looking to finish off a dominant WAFL reserves season by winning the premiership on Sunday at Patersons Stadium but West Perth is in its second straight grand final and out to break a reserves drought that stretches back to 1960. Subiaco put together a dominant season in the reserves winning 18 of its 20 matches during the home and away season with a five-game and percentage advantage over the rest of the competition. The Lions more than doubled their opposition's scores throughout the whole season and then thumped West Perth by 56 points in the second semi-final to advance straight to the grand final.

SWAN Districts and Claremont meet in Sunday morning's WAFL colts grand final with plenty of exciting young talent on display between two teams who played off in a second semi-final decided with the last kick of the day. Swan Districts was the standout colts team of 2014 winning 18 of 20 matches during the home and away season, and then beating Claremont in the second semi-final to win straight through to the grand final. However, Claremont and South Fremantle have shared the last three WAFL premierships and had played off in last year's grand final, and always loomed as the threats to Swans in 2014 and it was the Tigers who won last week's preliminary final to advance to the grand final.

DARREN Rumble has the chance to become Subiaco's most successful ever player with a fifth premiership on Sunday and he will have a big job to do on East Perth full-forward Josh Smith to help that cause. Rumble shared the 2004, 2006, 2007 and 2008 premierships with Alistair Pickett, Luke Newick, Marc Webb, Chad Cossom and Mark Haynes but is the last remaining player with four flags to his credit at the Lions giving him the chance of the rare feat of a fifth flag if they beat the Royals this Sunday. He was in his first full season of league football in 2004 cementing himself as one of the best full backs in the league and now a decade later not only has he played in three more flags, but amassed 210 matches as he prepares for his sixth grand final and 18th final overall.

TRINITY Handley put together one of the more remarkable WAFL careers over the past decade as the ultimate versatile player and the 30-year-old retires content having won two premierships, represented WA and being a life member of the Claremont Football Club. Handley played the final game of his career that began at league level in 2004 in Claremont's Round 23 victory over East Perth in which he kicked three goals including the match-winner on a day when Luke Blackwell, Matt Orzel and Andrew Foster also bid farewell to the WAFL. That meant that Handley ends his career on 189 matches with Claremont including two premierships, five grand finals and 17 finals matches while kicking 101 goals along the way and representing WA in 2012.

MUCH of the talk surrounding East Perth this season has been about its partnership with the West Coast Eagles, but it is the Royals' WAFL players who will likely be the deciding factor in winning a premiership on Sunday or not with Dean Cadwallader as important as anyone. Cadwallader has now played 40 matches with East Perth since making his debut in 2010, but his last three against Peel Thunder, Claremont and then the second semi-final against Subiaco could very well have been his best in just about best on ground performances in a new role across half-back. East Perth is coming off losing last year's WAFL grand final to West Perth by 49 points but the Royals have been on top of the ladder through most of 2014 ending the year as minor premiers and then booking a grand final sport with a 32-point second semi-final win over Subiaco at Medibank Stadium.
