ROUND 23 PREVIEW V PERTH

WEST Perth looks to end its 2014 WAFL season with a win against Perth at Lathlain Park on Saturday and to do so to farewell Dan Hunt and Anthony Tsalikis with a victory, and to celebrate ruckman Chris Keunen's 150th match.

West Perth's best football this season has still been outstanding with the reigning premiers just unable to deliver the consistency that took them to the ultimate success last year.

Perth and West Perth have met just the once this season and that was way back in Round 3 at HBF Arena with the Falcons winning that contest by 18 points.

West Perth has plenty of reasons to win on Saturday at Lathlain Park as well most notably with Dan Hunt and Anthony Tsalikis playing their final games, and Chris Keunen celebrating his 150th appearance with the Falcons.

Hunt joined West Perth in 2005 after spending the previous three years with the Sydney Swans and ever since he has been the elite key defenders in the competition.

He has now played 168 matches for the Falcons, represented WA, is a life member of the club and a key member of their premiership team last year.

Tsalikis made his debut with West Perth back in 2004 and has now gone on to play 189 matches, kick 332 goals, represented WA and be a five-time leading goalkicker at the Falcons and he is likely to make that six this year.

Keunen, meanwhile, will be continuing his career in 2015 and has cemented himself as one of the best ruckmen in the competition in recent years.

He was a huge part of West Perth's premiership this year and now the athletic big man becomes a life member of the West Perth Football Club by playing his 150th game this Saturday against Perth at Lathlain Park.

Perth had the bye last weekend and prior to that had lost 13 straight matches to be guaranteed of claiming the wooden spoon for 2014 and that is after the 2014 season began so well with two straight victories over Claremont and South Fremantle.

However, things have unravelled with a long injury list for Perth since and along the way coach Damien McMahon departed with Trevor Williams taking over for the rest of the season and the Demons still searching for their new coach going forward.

Perth now has one more chance to avoid finishing the season with a horror 14-game losing streak.

Corey Chalmers goes out of the West Perth team after copping a one-week suspension during last week's narrow loss to Claremont.

Hunt comes back into the West Perth line-up for the final league game of his career while Joe Morrow and Jack Thrum have staked their claims to be picked after good reserves form, and Steve Potente is back in the mix after missing last week's clash with the Tigers.

From Perth's team that was thumped by East Perth a fortnight ago, Brent Edmonds, Matthew Welburn, Cody Leggett, Ben Power, Matthew Moody and Daniel Arangio come into the line-up.

Meanwhile, Joel Houghton, Mark Deaves and Joel Kalajzic are the players named as outs at this stage for the Demons to face the Falcons at home on Saturday to close out the season.
