West Coast had nine AFL-listed players turn out for their WAFL side that was mauled by Subiaco. Here’s how each of them went.

Isiah Winder: West Coast’s best on the day, he put through a nice set shot from beyond the arc to get off to a good start. He continued to find the football and was the man to lift when they were 50 points down. Had a game-high 33 disposals to put his hand up for an AFL recall.

Greg Clark: Worked his way into the game after receiving a tag from Liam Hickmott, earning 23 disposals and 10 tackles.

Hugh Dixon: Set the tone early and finished with two majors. Shared the ruck load with Josh Rotham and used the ball well.

Patrick Naish: One of West Coast’s hardest workers. Ran just as hard defensively as he did going forward and gathered 27 touches.

Jackson Nelson: Had plenty of opportunities in the midfield but only managed 12 disposals. Sparked the Eagles’ resurgence with a checkside goal in the third.

Josh Rotham: Had a tough battle with Lewis Putt early, but gave the midfielders first use in the second half. He finished with a game-high 29 hit-outs.

Zane Trew: Was eased back in after battling a hip complaint and COVID-19 over the past few weeks. Managed 13 disposals.

Jack Williams: Was locked in a battle with Lion Lachlan Henderson and was beaten early. Fought back into it with some strong contested marks but was wayward in front of goal when the Eagles made their charge.

Alex Witherden: He was his usual self in the backline, and took the game on with his kicking.
