West Coast remained firmly entrenched at the bottom of the ladder, beaten heavily at home by Carlton. The Eagles kept it close in the first term but three quick Carlton goals to start the second term broke the game open, and the Blues were largely able to do as they pleased from that point. Skipper Emma Swanson tried her hardest with a game-high 27 disposals.
