West Coast has won Derby 46 and the last Western Derby at Domain Stadium by 30-points over Fremantle on Sunday afternoon.

West Coast’s reliable forward Josh Kennedy kicked three goals in his first game back from a calf injury sustained in Round 10, but Shannon Hurn’s 34 disposals and 14 marks earned him the Ross Glendinning medal in the 5.14 (44) to 11.8 (74) win.

Fremantle didn’t kick a goal until half way through the second quarter, but they leaped into the second half to get within a few goals with time left to steal the win. But the Eagles quickly snapped two goals in the final term to extend their lead.

Fremantle’s Lachie Neale clocked up 34 disposals and Michael Walters kicked a couple of impressive goals.
But Peter Sumich in expert comments was critical of some of the West Coast players.

“he’s got to lose some weight and get some speed back…have a look at his arse and his hips”

Hear how the game played out

Liam Duggan earned 3 votes for the Ross Glendinning Medal and told 6PR after the game that he and Shannon Hurn are gelling well in the backline.

“Our method really stood up today and our effort and contest around the ball was really strong where we were lacking is a bit of polish on the finish and a bit of connection with our forwards,” David Mundy told 6PR after the game.

“We walk away thinking ‘Gee Whiz, we had an opportunity to win that game’,” Ross Lyon said after the game.
