WEST PERTH v SWAN DISTRICTS Arena Joondalup 6.40pm

West Perth take on the Swans tonight in what should be an intriguing encounter. Swans have lost Clayton Hinkley to the Dockers. The Falcons should regain Robbie Warnock after he was dropped by Fremantle for their clash with Adelaide. West Perth’s Big man department should be the difference.

West Perth by 12 points

PERTH v SUBIACO EFTel Oval 2.15pm

Perth has started the season with a bang winning two out of their first three. Subi will be a true test of where the Demons are at. The Demons have the runners to trouble the dominant Lions.

Perth by 6 points

EAST PERTH v SOUTH FREMANTLE Medibank Stadium 2.15pm

East Perth has struggled so far this year. The loss of Luke Webster to a knee injury will not help matters. South Fremantle still have a side full of potential and on their day can beat anyone. The Dogs will do it for captain Toby McGrath in his 150th

Souths by 36 points

PEEL v CLAREMONT Rushton Park 5.30pm

Peel has had its best start to a season since their inception and looks to have an outside chance of making their first finals appearance. Claremont lose in-form forward Chad Jones to West Coast but should have enough depth to cover the loss.

Claremont by 32 points
