The Peel Cavaliers have gone back to back, defeating the Get Careers SWFL Colts for the second year in a row, at East Fremantle Oval on Saturday afternoon, winning the CBH Group Grand Final.
The Peel side got off to a good start, kicking with the breeze, keeping the SWFL to one behind in the opening quarter.
The South West fought back in the second quarter with Evan Hill kicking the opening goal, with a banana kick on the run from the boundary line. Hill backed that up with a set shot to get the South West back to one point. Harry Jones put the South West in front with a set shot, and the South West looked to be in control, but two late goals to Peel against the breeze, put the Peel side back in front by five points at half time.
It would be the third quarter that would be the match winning quarter, with the Peel side kicking three goals, while keeping South West to three behinds.
Coach Brett Maguire implored the South West to take the game on in the final term, and in the opening minute Kayden Panetta kicked a good goal, giving the South West side hope. However Peel responded and despite the South West never giving up, Peel were too good.
On a positive note, the South West did have five players selected in the All-Stars team.
