Another Fremantle have finals series to forget

The straight-sets finals exit theme in the AFL on the weekend extended to the WA Amateurs when A Grade minor premiers Fremantle CBC lost the preliminary final to Wesley Curtin by 12 points.

CBC scored only nine goals in their two finals, a major disappointment for the team which lost only two games in the home-and-away season.

Wesley Curtin's bid for a second consecutive flag is on track after their 9.10 to 7.10 win over CBC at Morris Buzacott Reserve in Kardinya on Saturday.

It was a turnaround from their clash in the final round when Fremantle won by 28 points.

Wesley take on University in the grand final at Lathlain Park this Saturday.

There was another surprise in the B Grade grand final when Kelmscott comfortably defeated minor premiers North Fremantle, who also lost only two games for the season.

Kelmscott finished fourth and had been in danger of missing the finals after round 16 when they were 8-8, but they won the final two matches then four finals in an extraordinary run at the premiership.

The Bulldogs won by 36 points, 11.12 to 6.6, at Lathlain Park on Saturday. They had been promoted from C1 this year and now go into A Grade for next season.

North Fremantle had some consolation with winning the reserves and colts premierships.

In C1, Kingsway Football Club had a mighty triumph on grand final day, their seniors, reserves and colts all winning at HBF Arena in Joondalup.
