ROUND 4 PREVIEW V SUBIACO

Friday, April 10, 2015 - 1:22 PM - by Chris Pike

SUBIACO and West Perth are the last two WAFL premiers, have no love lost between them, have both won two of their opening three games of the season and that should all equate to quite the battle at Medibank Stadium on Saturday.

West Perth won the 2013 WAFL premiership before going on to miss the finals altogether last year and then starting 2015 in disappointing fashion with a loss to South Fremantle.

However, the Falcons have now bounced back well beating Peel Thunder and Perth the past two weeks to build some momentum into the clash with Subiaco on Saturday leading into the Round 5 bye and then clash with Swan Districts on the Anzac Day weekend.

LIFE MEMBERSHIP AT WEST PERTH MEANS EVERYTHING TO STRIJK

Friday, April 3, 2015 - 2:02 PM - by Chris Pike

ANDREW Strijk's heart has always been with West Perth either side of his time with West Coast, and during, and now he is rewarded for his outstanding service by earning life membership reaching his 150th match on Saturday against Perth at HBF Arena.

Strijk has put together an outstanding WAFL career with West Perth since making his league debut in 2006 along the way representing Western Australia on three occasions and then the highlight came right throughout 2013 when not only did he play in the Falcons' premiership but he was the fairest and best winner on top of it.

The now 27-year-old spent three years with West Coast and played 13 AFL matches, but even when with the Eagles he still played 10 WAFL games in 2010 with West Perth, 19 in 2011 and 14 in 2012 before then returning to the Falcons full-time ahead of the 2013 season.

Monday, March 30, 2015 - 1:48 PM - by Chris Pike

WEST Perth had a lot working against it heading into Saturday's home opener against Peel Thunder at HBF Arena but in the end the Falcons held on for an inspired seven-point victory against a side featuring 16 players on the Fremantle Dockers list.

West Perth was coming into the contest following a 35-point season-opening loss to South Fremantle last Friday night at Fremantle Oval and from that contest lost premiership utility Jordan Jones to a torn hamstring.

However, coach Bill Monaghan made some changes to the team making some big calls dropping premiership players Marc Crisp and Ray Bartholomew to give an opportunity to Matt Johnson and Kris Shannon with Matt Fowler the other change coming in for the injured Jones.
