WESTERN Australia has continued its terrific start to the 2009 NAB AFL Under-18 Championships, defeating Vic Metro by 63 points at Subiaco Saturday afternoon.

Vic Metro buckled to the host's pressure all over the ground, as WA built on its 11-point half-time lead to run away with a 21.6 (132) to 10.9 (69) win.

Metro captain Tom Scully stole the show in the losing side, picking up 30 possessions, eight clearances and six tackles to reinforce his status as this year's potential No. 1 draft pick.

But it was Western Australia's even contribution that forced Metro into sloppy skill errors, as Blayne Wilson, David Swallow and Nicholas Winmar excelled.

Brandon Matera and Matt Fyfe were the standout forwards, kicking four goals each.

Robbie Hicks continued his good form with four goals for visitor.
