Round 1 July 18, 2020 Official Publication of the Wafl $3.00 OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE WAFL $3.00 ROUND 1 JULY 18, 2020 like no other When the ball is bounced across various WAFL venues on Saturday, it will be exactly 124 days since football in this state was turned on its head by the Coronavirus pandemic. Players have had their longest ever preseasons, coaches have tried to plan for the unplannable and backroom staff were presented with challenges no-one could have seen coming. Finally, footy is back. It really will be a season like no other in 2020; nine-rounds, 16-minute quarters, no West Coast Eagles or AFL-listed players, a top-four and three weeks of finals. The Optus WAFL has never looked like it will on Saturday, July 18, but the elements of the game we love will still be apparent. We look forward to seeing Subiaco attempt the elusive three-peat. The midfield of Horsley, Kitchin and Delahunty is truly worth the price of admission. What will the big three inclusions of Chris u Lachlan Delahunty Masten, Brady Grey and Fraser McInnes 2019 Sandover Medallist do for Perth. It’s been 30 years but is the wait for finals footy nearly over? South Fremantle return with a chip on their shoulder and look hungrier than ever to atone for Grand Final day. The Tigers added to an already powerful list and look ready to take the next step. Swan Districts have created a strong mix of youth and experience as they look to charge up the ladder, while WAFL admission prices This publication is proudly produced by the WA Football DID YOU KNOW? $15 – Adult* Commission. $12 – Concession* Photography // Blake Parry & Michael Farnell You can subscribe to the Football Budget Free – Children 15 and under Design // Jacqueline Holland, Direction Design and Print Simply call 0419 930 763 or *Includes a copy of Football Budget Printing // Data Documents www.datadocuments.com.au email [email protected] The Football Budget is printed on Gloss 90gsm paper, which is sourced from a sustainably managed forest and uses manufacturing processes of the highest environmental standards.

The Sharks and Peel are young and developing but youth often brings excitement and a sense of the unknown to the table. A talented West Perth have all the tools to make a difference this season and will entertain their supporters in 2020. What better match-up to open the WAFL season than a traditional Fremantle Derby. A game that encompasses everything we enjoy about WAFL footy. Fierce rivalry, a burning desire to win and plenty of flare between two of the competition’s oldest competitors. If anyone has a chance of challenging reigning premiers Subiaco, it’s Claremont. Leederville Oval will set the scene for a cracking first up fixture. Swans host West Perth at a hostile Steel Blue Oval and the new and improved Perth will visit Mandurah for a clash against Peel. All of this plus an abundance of talent in the second year of the Optus WAFL Women’s competition. Once again, some of the best players in the AFLW will suit up for their local club. u Chris Masten We will get a glimpse at All-Australians like Gemma 2020 Perth recruit Houghton, Ebony Antonio and Dana Hooker. The heroes of the next generation, right on our doorstep. The best part of it all is from game one in both competitions, you’re invited and everyone is welcome to the return of footy in WA. It’s a celebration 124 days in the making. It’s time to bring on the WAFL. 2 3 WAFL MATCH PREVIEWS brought to you by waflfootyfacts.net Steel Blue Oval - 18th July @2.30pm #SDvWP 10th 4-14 68.93% Tip 5th 9-9 97.47% (2019) (2019) (2019) Swan Districts by 10 (2019) (2019) (2019) L85 - W4 - L62 - W4 - L106 Form Guide W22 - W44 - L70 - L4 - L3 Fact: Swans and West Perth have previously played three times in round 1 at Bassendean Oval, with Swans winning twice, in 1981 and 1987, whilst the Falcons sole victory at Bassendean in round 1 games was in 1943 P: 241 W: 88 L: 151 D: 2 Head to Head P: 241 W: 151 L: 88 D: 2 27.20 (182) in round 6, 1980 Highest Score 30.25 (205) in round 7, 1952 3.9 (27) in round 5, 1965 Lowest Score 5.9 (39) in round 20, 1975 126 points in round 6, 1980 Biggest Winning Margin 158 points in round 12, 1971 Fremantle Community Bank Oval - 18th July @2.35pm #SFvEF 2nd 13-5 128.38% Tip 5th 9-9 97.47% (2019) (2019) (2019) South Fremantle by 8 (2019) (2019) (2019) W4 - W7 - L34 - W30 - L96 Form Guide L21 - L22 - W8 - L13 – L23 Fact: South Fremantle have won the last nine games against East Fremantle which is their 2nd longest winning streak against the Sharks.

    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Elise and the Gold Gloop by S.B. Davies S.B. Davies. At the age of six, my daughter was a good reader for her age, but refused to start reading “proper books” with chapters and no pictures. She was bored with “Horrid Henry” and fairies saving a rainbow yet once more and insisted that she was old enough to read proper books, but every one she tried was “too difficult”. It wasn’t she couldn’t read them, it was the concepts and storylines; they were all designed for nine and ten year olds. There was another problem too. She wanted to read about girls, yet all the books about girls we could find were twee and dull. My daughter is happy to read about a princess, along as she is a Ninja Princess; happy to save rainbows, as long as it involves a good sword fight or perhaps a well-planned heist. After a few months of this, my lovely daughter stopped reading. We tried most of the “first chapter books” that people recommend; all met with disinterest. So I asked her exactly what she wanted in a “proper book”. After much though, she wrote down: “Dragons, princess, zombies, vampires, ghosts, but not spiders and it should be funny and scary and have fighting in it.” We couldn’t find such a book with concepts and vocabulary suitable for a six year old – so I wrote one. I had written novels before, but not a children’s book, so I had help from my daughter to find the right level.

  • AFL Vic Record Week 2.Indd
    TAC Cup Round 2 TAC Cup Girls Round 3 1 - 2 April 2017 $3.00 Photo: Cameron Grimes Perkins a lesson in persistence Not much knocks the AFL men’s competition off the front page of the paper, especially during the opening round of the season. But the NAB AFL Women’s Grand Final did just that on the weekend, with premier Adelaide – featuring Eastern Devils Swisse VFL Women’s draft ee Sarah Perkins – recognised on the front page of The Age with the headline ‘Making HerStory’. With close to 100 VFL Women’s players draft ed into the AFL this season, just one now has the title of premiership player, with Perkins to be congratulated on being part of the successful Crows outfit. Perkins is a great example to up-and-coming female and male players, having been overlooked at the women’s draft but making the most of the late lifeline thrown to her by Adelaide to live out her AFL dream. The TAC Cup regularly provides over 50 per cent of the talent to the AFL at draft time, but it is only a small percentage of players from the competition that are draft ed. Each weekend almost 300 players take to the field representing their region, with double that amount on TAC Cup lists. While it is the elite talent that is oft en focused on in the competition, we should also recognise the role our clubs play in developing future Peter Jackson VFL and local players. The skills learnt at this level are taken back into the community, as the players become leaders from the education and training provided in the TAC Cup.
