From the papers[]
The Sunday Age[]
"Hasleby was unstoppable on the ball for most of the night and collected his third Ross Glendinning Medal as best-on-ground He won the award narrowly from Bell.
Hasleby had 30 touches and kicked two goals. Bell had 33 possessions and one goal.
The Eagles had their chances but had no targets up forward, apart from pint-sized Phil Matera, who kicked four goals despite being well held by Roger Hayden in one-on-one contests.
The Eagles had only four goalkickers compared with Fremantle's nine.
West Coast's best players were Andrew Embley, who did a good job on Matthew Pavlich, and Daniel Kerr, who burst forward a number of times and finished with three goals."
