TWO TEAMS who are hungry for wins go at it in a match which could be a really tight contest. While the winless Perth might not look like a threat on paper, tell that to unbeaten Subiaco who almost fell to the Demons, much like the Falcons prior. East Fremantle simply have to win this if the Sharks are to play finals, and are at home too.

FORM

East Fremantle secured a much needed win over South Fremantle in Round 9, keeping their hopes of a finals campaign alive. The Sharks will need a lot more of those in the run home, starting win the winless Perth. The Demons pushed West Perth to the brink a fortnight ago then were incredibly in front against the unbeaten Subiaco early in the last quarter. Both sides will view this game as winnable.

TEAMS

CHANGES

Just one change for each side with Sharks forwardAlicia Blizard (National Academy) coming out for Jae Flynn, while Perth regains talented midfielder/forward Jorja Haines who replaces Milla Spalding.

AFLW DRAFT TALENT

Without Blizard, all draft attention turns to consistent Sharks defender Maya Louvel-Finn who is having a ripping season, while up the other end, Perth duo Addison Opalinski and Mia Carlshausen are also shining. From a mature-age perspective, another sharks defender in Madison Evans and the dangerous Noa McNaughton are a couple of names to just not down, while for the Demons, Holly Britton – who like McNaughton had a draft combine invite last year – has gone to another level in new colours.

PREDICTION

At home, East Fremantle should get it done in a close one, with the real test for Perth now being able to finish off its good work. The Demons have been in winnable positions against quality sides the past two rounds, but can they put the final nail in the coffin when in front?
