Sunday Round 11 McDonald's WAFL Results

Sunday, May 29, 2016 - 10:07 PM - by Chris Pike
CLAREMONT has ended its five-game losing run with an 80-point win over Swan Districts at the Claremont Showground on Sunday giving the Tigers some positive vibes heading into a two-week break. Claremont now doesn’t play again until hosting West Perth in Round 13 with a bye to come next week and then the break for the state game against Tasmania. That put extra importance on the Tigers not dropping a sixth straight game on Sunday and they had the added incentive of having lost a game they perhaps never should have against Swan Districts back in Round 4 at Steel Blue Oval. Despite Swans starting well with two of the first three goals, the Tigers dominated the rest of the contest to run out 20.10 (130) to 7.8 (50) victors. Read More ...

Sunday, May 29, 2016 - 8:22 AM - by Chris Pike
DARCY Cameron has been a great shining light in Claremont's WAFL season to date and it could very well lead him to an AFL future, but his focus is firmly on helping get the Tigers back on the winner's list starting Sunday against Swan Districts. Claremont comes into Sunday's clash at the Showground on the back of five straight losses and despite how competitive the Tigers have been, to remain in the finals race they need to beat Swans in what is their fourth straight match at home. Cameron is having an outstanding season, though, mixing his time between playing as a key forward and helping out premiership ruckman Mitch Andrews in the middle. Read More ...
