BRADLEY, LOUREY STRENGTHEN FALCONS BIG MEN STOCKS

Monday, October 6, 2014 - 6:42 PM - by CHRIS PIKE

WEST Perth's big men stocks for the 2015 WAFL season have been significantly boosted with the signing of VFL centre half-forward Michael Lourey and the return of premiership star Kepler Bradley.

With Lourey to settle a spot in the forward-line and Bradley able to play forward, back or in the ruck, it gives West Perth plenty of options with its big men in 2015 with Marcus Adams and Nick Rodda proven young key position players at either end along with Chris Keunen and Seva Martin in the ruck.

Following the retirements of champion pair Dan Hunt and Anthony Tsalikis, West Perth was on the hunt for some more key position players and now that is exactly what Lourey and Bradley provide to coach Bill Monaghan.

SHANE NELSON WINS 2014 BRECKLER MEDAL

Friday, October 3, 2014 - 11:08 PM - by CHRIS PIKE

STAR West Perth midfielder Shane Nelson has claimed his second Breckler Medal as the Falcons' fairest and best player taking out the award on his own in 2014 narrowly winning ahead of Jay van Berlo, Laine Rasmussen and Sandover Medallist Aaron Black.

The 21-year-old on-baller had another outstanding season with West Perth and was presented with his second straight Breckler Medal at Joondalup's HBF Arena on Friday night.

Despite his averaging 31.1 possessions a game throughout the year as the WAFL's leading ball winner, it was a tight fairest and best vote count for the 2014 season.

Nelson finished on 114 votes to be only one ahead of co-captain van Berlo and the emerging Rasmussen who both finished on 113 votes as runner's-up. Sandover Medal winner Black finished in third-place on 108 votes.
