1995 WAFL season

Australian rules football season December 2017 December 2017 wafl 1995 8 WP 16 Sub 8 88 Jason Heatley (Sub) Craig Treleven (EF) 1994 1996 The 1995 WAFL season was the 111th season of the West Australian Football League in its various incarnations. Already depleted in strength by the rise of the West Coast Eagles, the WAFL suffered a further blow to its popularity and standard when the AFL, to counter the Eagles' dominance of the early 1990s with a champion defence and vast player depth, introduced the Fremantle Dockers as a second Western Australian club. The introduction of Fremantle into the AFL meant that the national league was competing with the WAFL on every weekend, and this led to an acceleration of the long-term decline in WAFL attendances. Crowds declined by forty-six percent compared to 1994 figures,Barker Anthony J. Behind the Play: A History of Football in Western Australia 316 0975242709 and the resultant financial problems led to many proposals to improve the competition's appeal, ultimately leading to the abortive renaming "Westar Rules" and the introduction of a ninth club, Mandurah-based PT, who proved perennially un-competitive on-field for almost two decades. The WAFL's proposed move of perennial tailender Perth to the Perth Hills was voted down by the Demons' board on 11 July, when that body's members voted 115 to 83 to remain at Lathlain Park, largely because of the unaffordability of WAFL-standard facilities in Gosnells.Lague Steve Members Vote to Keep Perth at Lathlain The West Australian 12 July 1995 122 1995 saw the abandonment of another abortive experiment, that of allowing a fifth team in the finals, although the "double-header" introduced with the final five in 1991 was retained for the first week of finals. Under former star player Gary Buckenara, Subiaco dominated the home-and-away season losing only two matches, but were narrowly beaten in the second semi-final and thrashed in the Grand Final by West Perth – now firmly established at Joondalup – due to an outstanding performance from Darren Harris. Subiaco were spearheaded by Jason Heatley, who after several years of very poor records from full-forwards, produced a century of goals in a WAFL home-and-away season for the first time since Mick Rea ten seasons beforehand. The Falcons, who had not won a title since 1975 apart from a Colts premiership in 1990, won the pre-season "Emu Export Cup" as well as the premiership.Lewis Ross Symmons Shows Class The West Australian 3 April 1995 75 In contrast, Swan Districts, under new coach Graham Melrose after John Todd returned to South Fremantle and having lost several key players including David Ogg, Kevin Caton and Paul Gow to country clubs,Lague Steve WAFL Back on Course The West Australian 6 April 1995 104-105 lost their first fifteen games and would not return to the finals until 2004.
