The West Coast Hawks are 2017 Colts Premiers. Wining the Grand Final by 122 points, the match was much harder than the scoreboard suggests.
Elliston came in with a side smaller in stature but big in heart, they would be much closer with perhaps another big man close to goal. The Hawks however played an irresistable brand of team football, contributors all over the ground.
Jonti Brice took out the ML O Brien Medal as best afield, playing in the midfield, he was everywhere, propelling his team forward time and again. Jacob Baldock showed is trademark dash from half back, very close in the best afield award. Jaxon Hutchison a towering forward target, Bailey Hawes dangerous around goals, Oska Williams, mainly on the wing showed that he will be a force into the future and Jay Johns lively, particularly forward. Spoils well shared amonst a team of hard workers.
Oska Richards and Luke Hutchison led the way for the Roosters, big efforts all over the ground, Yani Cobby pulled down some great contested marks and thrilled with speed and dash to run away from opponents. Harvey Fleming outstanding in the back pocket, either in the air or on the groun, Jacob Newton another polished performance, as usual!. Coach Tim Kierse will be proud of the efforts of his charges, mainly battling against bigger bodies, but they just put in for each other.
Congratulations to the West Coast Hawks - back to back premiers
