There is an indirect link between West Perth and Kardinia Park - Graham Polly Farmer, Derek Hall and Ronnie Burns.

Doesn't mean much in terms of tonight's Foxtel Cup Grand Final.

Good luck to coaching staff and players, I'm sure you will show the West Perth spirit and acquit yourselves well as representatives of our iconic Western Australian footy club.

It's A Grand Old Flag

WO OF the country's oldest football clubs, Williamstown and West Perth, will do battle for the $100,000 first prize for the 2014 Foxtel Cup at Simonds Stadium on Tuesday night.

The runners-up will take home a cheque for $40,000.

Williamstown, celebrating its 150th anniversary this season, is out to claim its second Foxtel Cup title in four years, having won the inaugural competition in 2011, while for West Perth, which boasts a rich 129-year history, the clash marks its first Foxtel Cup Grand Final appearance.

It is the fourth successive year a West Australian side has qualified for the decider.

The match will consist of four 20-minute quarters, including time-on.

Heres the latest team from the West Couple of outs and ins.. no major changes still looking pretty good.. Noticed Striker now in back line.. Thats good as has been brilliant in defence this year. Rodda out injured.. Seva didnt travel, Shannon on the wing - Will leave the rest to you to sort out

Simonds Stadium 6.30pm. Fox Footy
West Perth:
B: * Browne Marusic Rasmussen
*HB: * Tedesco Jones Strijk
*C: * Bartholomew J van Berlo Kerr
*HF: * Crisp Adams Shannon
*F: * Alexander Tsalikis Lynch
*Ruck: * Keunen Black Nelson

*Emerg: * Rohde M van Berlo.

Not a bad side.. good defence but lacking firepower I reckon..

You'll be able to use the forty grand to plug a bit of the hole in your bank account that Kraks left ...

Should be a good game, I've been following the Seagulls since Peter German left Subi to coach them. The club is sending a few supporter busses down so hopefully we won't see another empty stadium.
