1971 WANFL season
The 1971 WANFL season was the eighty-seventh season of the various incarnations of the Western Australian National Football League, and the forty-first (including three wartime under-age seasons) under that moniker.
Following half a decade dominated with the exception of two challenges from South Fremantle by the three Perth clubs and Austin Robertson’s goalkicking, 1971 saw a changing of the guard, with Perth, in Mal Atwell’s last season as coach, dropping to second from bottom owing to the weakness of their forward line,〔East, Alan; ''From Redlegs to Demons: the Story of the Perth Football Club from 1899''; pp. 132, 214〕 and Subiaco also fell out of the four after an off-season disrupted by efforts to thwart potential clearances of goal machine Robertson, half-forward George Young, and promising young players Stephen Heal and Peter Featherby.〔Spillman, Ken; ''Diehards: The Story of the Subiaco Football Club 1946-2000; pp. 143-144. ISBN 0957818505''〕
After a promising season in 1970 and the acquisition of Colin Tully from Collingwood, John Evans from St. Kilda and 30-possession-per-game rover Ross Parker from VFA club Prahran,〔Collingwood, Ted; ‘Claremont’s Hopes’; ''The West Australian'', 27 March 1971, p. 91〕 Claremont became early favourites for the flag.〔Lee, Jack; ‘Claremont May Fulfil Early Prediction’; ''The West Australian'', 6 September 1971, p. 51〕〔de Mori, Gino; ‘Claremont Again Fall into Error’; ''The West Australian'', 17 May 1971, p. 63〕 The Tigers faltered later on however, and despite playing finals for only the fourth time since 1942 and the first since 1965, were regarded as disappointing. East Perth, despite a noticeable roving weakness owing to the injury-related retirement of Keith Doncon,〔Brakey, Dale; ‘Perth Rovers Show Up East Perth Weakness’; ''The West Australian'', 3 May 1971, p. 59〕 won fifteen of seventeen matches but failed in the Grand Final before rivals West Perth, who after a disappointing 1970 returned to second position and sent champion ruckman “Polly” Farmer out on a high note with his sixth senior premiership and second as their captain-coach. More significantly, East Fremantle, after four disastrous seasons, reached the preliminary final under the coaching of future Hawthorn premiership mentor Alan Joyce and nearly overcame the Cardinals in a heart-stopping preliminary.
Although the season did not quite reach the previous season’s record average score of 100.76 points per team per game, it did see a record high losing score and the highest score and greatest winning margin for over a decade.
