← 1934 1936 →

The 1935 WANFL season was the 51st season of the Western Australian National Football League. The season saw West Perth win the premiership under the coaching of Johnny Leonard; it was the only time in West Perth's history that it won consecutive premierships,^[1] preceding a brief but exceptionally steep decline that saw the Cardinals four years later suffer the equal longest losing streak in WA(N)FL history.^[2]

This season saw Claremont-Cottesloe under new president Pat Rodriguez change its name to Claremont,^[3] and at first gave promise of great improvement before returning to their worst 1934 form. 1934 finalists Victoria Park lost defenders Shepherd, A. Brown, Hungerford and Patrick Fitzgerald in the off-season to retirement of major injuries^[4] and failed to cope with these problems,^[5] finishing last for the only time in open-age competition between 1924 and 1980. In contrast, Subiaco, who had been disappointing in 1934 with just seven victories, regained Lou Daily from Geelong and Collingwood to signal the end of a major exodus to the VFL.^[6] Daily's brilliant play in defence, and the acquisition of Frank Murphy from the Magpies as captain-coach, made the Maroons the best team in the competition for much of 1935, but West Perth's defence was too much in the Grand Final and Subiaco were to have a third of a century as a cellar-dweller before their next premiership in 1973.

The Sandover Medal count was marred by overlooking a clause in the rules to deal with a tie – Lou Daily was initially awarded the Medal on the casting vote of WANFL President Walter Stooke^[7] and became the first full-back to win a "best-and-fairest" medal in any leading Australian Rules state,^[8] but on 21 September it was pointed out that George Krepp should have won through having received one more three-vote than Daily.^[9] Ultimately the WANFL had no choice but to strike a second medal, which was given to Krepp at the League meeting on 16 October.^[10]

Victoria Park, after trailing at half time by 45 points – 1.7 (13) to 8.10 (58) – came from behind to defeat Swan Districts. South Fremantle recover from having only five scoring shots to 22 in the first half for a thrilling win to be two games out of the four but face a tough draw to finish.[72]

East Perth fell one point short of the existing record WA(N)FL score,[87] against a Claremont team which had lost eight matches in a row. The score remains the highest by a visiting team at Claremont Oval.[88] Ted Tyson (West Perth) kicked seven goals to kick his hundredth goal for the season. Newly promoted forward Ted Holdsworth kicked eight for Swan Districts, as they ensure 1934 finalist Victoria Park, who had to recall committeeman Franch to field eighteen fit players[84] finish with the wooden spoon.

Notes

^a WANFL President Walter Stooke gave a casting vote to Daily, but Bob Bryant noted that Krepp had received eight first votes to Daily's seven, and should according to the "countback" rule of the time have won, so that the WANFL had to strike a second medal.
^b The "first eighteen" of Western Australia was in Adelaide playing South Australia for this weekend.
