BITTERSWEET VICTORY

West Perth played a wonderful brand of football to beat Subiaco by nineteen points on Saturday. The win was ultimately responsible for knocking the Lions out of the final four but the margin fell just one point short of the Falcons grabbing second spot on percentage. As a result, West Perth will play Perth, who will make their first finals appearance in twenty-two years, after they defeated Read More [+]

The West Perth Women’s Reserves team took on Subiaco at Leederville Oval in the first semi final, and to say we beat them would be lion. With a score line of 70 to 28, a more accurate description would be that we dominated and thrashed the Subiaco Lions. If big game hunting wasn’t so morally reprehensible, one might even say that we bagged enough lions to make a rug that covered Read More [+]

TOUGH DAY AT THE OFFICE

The trip to Claremont Oval brought very little joy for the Falcons on Saturday. For the first time this year all three sides lost and as a result the last week of fixtures has become even more important. The Colts and Reserves were beaten by twelve and six points respectively. Both were down by five goals going into the last quarter. They finished strongly Read More [+]

RESERVES

After an inspirational morning with the junior girls from the local community football clubs, the Reserves women were reminded of what they were fighting for going into the match against Subiaco Lions. Second place on the ladder wasn’t just a finals berth, it was a milestone to prove that the West Perth Falcons Women’s could provide the elite football pathway that young females in the northern suburbs desperately need.

RESERVES

The ideal weather combined with the day’s spirituality created the perfect conditions for our Reserves team to play some Moorditj football. The players were led enthusiastically onto the ground by proud Noongar girls, Maddison and Jilaya Collard, whose mum, Courtney Collard, Noongar Yamatji woman, is our BGC Housing Group’s Indigenous Ambassador. Courtney is also our champion full forward and her emerging elite snapshot has bagged her nine goals so far this season.

FALCONS GET OFF THE CANVAS

West Perth looked in all sorts of trouble when they trailed East Fremantle by twenty-nine points midway through the third quarter. Up until this point in time they had only scored two goals and the victory needed to secure a finals berth seemed a long way away. But to their great credit they rallied to record a hard fought four-point victory by kicking six Read More [+]

RESERVES

Amidst unrelenting rain, the Falcons Women’s Reserves team headed off to Leederville Oval for their clash against Subiaco Lions. The ibis seemed impressed with the oval’s condition, wading happily through the inner-city wetlands, but our players looked warily at the sodden, muddy mess. Challenging conditions build character though, and the Falcons proved to be undeterred by the drowning hazard, running, or at least slidingover the top of the Lions by Read More [+]

FALCONS WIN A CRACKER

Tyler Keitel was a match winner in his hundredth game for West Perth at Mineral Resources Park on Saturday. He kicked six goals to lead the Falcons to a seven-point victory in what was a terrific game of WAFL football. The result was in doubt right until the end and the win against a very good Perth side was full of merit. The Colts, once Read More [+]

RESERVES

With heavy rain throughout the day and thunderstorms forecast for the evening, the Reserves team headed off to Claremont Oval for a swim meet rather than a footy match. While the conditions made it difficult to play clean footy, our players fought as hard as ever for every metre gained and every scoring point made. Unfortunately, the Tigers’ experience proved to be their strength, and they ran the game out by 20 Read More [+]

A LOT TO LIKE ABOUT STRONG VICTORY

West Perth was most impressive in their thirty-two-point victory against East Perth on Saturday. Their attack on the football made it very difficult for their opponents to develop any cohesion. The Falcons were relentless from the first bounce and didn’t let up for the entire game. Supporters would have to be buoyed by the football that is being played under Senior coach, Read More [+]
