From the papers[]

The Age[]

"The Eagles began to assert their stamp on the match as they gained ascendancy across their half-forward and centre lines through forwards Heady and Chris Lewis and wingman Peter Matera.

Full-forward Sumich finished with five goals but was well held for most of the match by Shane Ellen.

Footscray found opportunities increasingly difficult at the other end of the ground.

Spearhead Danny Del-Re was unsighted until late in the game and finished with only one goal after bagging six against Essendon last week. With the Bulldogs' forward line well held by an unstinting West Coast defence, repeated forward thrusts by the Footscray midfield were abruptly rejected."[1]
