\n\n\nSUBIACO secured its fourth WAFL Colts premiership after defeating Claremont by 59 points in Sunday’s one-sided Grand Final at Fremantle Oval. Jack Clarke Medallist Lachlan Venirsen<\/strong> won the Mel Whinnen Medal after he finished with 32 possessions, 11 marks, five tackles and a goal, boosting his draft stocks.\r\n\r\nThe opening quarter proved to be an even contest. It took until the fifth minute for the opening goal of the game. Jake Willson<\/strong> was able to spear a pass to Jacob Van Rooyen<\/strong> inside Claremont\u2019s attacking 50, before Van Rooyen went back and converted the opening goal of the game. Minutes later, Neil Erasmus<\/strong> was able to break through a forward 50 stoppage and slammed home the Lions\u2019 first goal of the game.\r\n\r\nIn the fourteenth minute, Jacquin Ciminata<\/strong> snapped through a goal for the Tigers. In the twenty-second minute, Lachlan Henderson<\/strong> was able to break through a tackle and kicked a goal for the Lions. Soon after, Subiaco\u2019s Connor Faraone<\/strong> was able to run into an open goal. Just before quarter-time, Willson was awarded a free kick for being taken too high. He went back and nailed the goal from 50 metres out to reduce the margin to just one point at quarter-time.\r\n\r\nThe Lions were on fire in the second quarter, with Erasmus, Jaxon Bilchuris<\/strong> and Matthew Johnson<\/strong> all kicking goals for Subiaco. In the 17th minute, Claremont\u2019s Ben Ramshaw<\/strong> was able to take solid one-on-one mark inside the Tigers\u2019 attacking 50. He went back and kicked a goal from a tight angle, to get the Tigers to within 15 points at half time.\r\n\r\nAfter the main break, Joshua Moses<\/strong> roved a pack expertly, shrugged off a tackle and snapped through another goal for the Lions in the third minute. Moments later, Claremont\u2019s Kieran Gowdie<\/strong> took a strong contested mark inside 50. He went back and nailed the goal. Erasmus booted two consecutive goals for the Lions soon after. In the 15th minute, Trey Kennedy<\/strong> got the ball inside 50, and Tyler Brockman<\/strong> took a strong contested one-on-one mark. Brockman went back and nailed the goal. Before three quarter time, Sandon Page<\/strong> kicked two consecutive goals for Subiaco, to give the Lions a 45-point lead at the final break.\r\n\r\nIn the last quarter, Connor Patterson, Jack Gouge<\/strong> and Lachlan McKay<\/strong> all kicked goals for Subiaco, while Gowdie kicked one goal for the Tigers.\r\n\r\nAlong with best afield Vanirsen, Johnson (21 possessions, six tackles, one goal), Patterson (20 possessions, one goal), Blake Morris<\/strong> (16 possessions, eight marks), and Erasmus (13 possessions, four goals) were prominent for the Lions.\r\n\r\nFor Claremont, Jack Avery<\/strong> fought hard with 33 possessions, seven marks and four tackles. Skipper Joel Western<\/strong> (25 possessions), Van Rooyen (17 possessions, one goal) and Logan Young<\/strong> (17 possessions, six tackles) also competed strongly for the Tigers.\n\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n
