 West Perth
West Perth, as minor premier in 1905, needed to call on this right of challenge against East Fremantle, which had won the final having earlier comprehensively beaten the Cardinals, 5.5 (35) to 0.4 (4), in a semi final played at the WACA.
For most of the ensuing decade, West Perth struggled: between 1912 and 1920 the side contested the finals only once, in 1916, when it was immediately vanquished by South Fremantle; it finished last in 1918 and 1919, and overall its success rate for the period was a paltry 26.3%.
West Perth contested the finals in all 3 under age seasons, winning the premiership in 1942 with 51 point grand final defeat of Claremont, and bowing out at the first hurdle in both 1943 and 1944.
