Coming in at #20 was the 1990 drawn qualifying final against Collingwood when Peter Sumich kicked a point after the siren to level the scores.

After a disappointing season in 1989 where the club failed to reach the finals, West Coast excelled in the following year, winning 16 out of 22 matches to finish third on the AFL ladder. This set up a blockbuster qualifying final showdown against Collingwood at Waverley Park.

Peter Sumich recalls feeling fairly confident throughout the game, until an incredible goal from Peter Daicos lifted Collingwood’s intensity.

“It was a game that was fairly even throughout,” Sumich said. “We did get on top there for a while, I think we got 10 points in front, and I thought we had the game.

“And then of course Daicos comes into play and kicks an unbelievable goal and just got them on a little roll.”

With the help of the runner and future assistant coach Robbie Wiley, West Coast forced a boundary throw-in with only seconds remaining. Trailing by a single point, West Coast were setting themselves up for one of the most dramatic finishes to an AFL game of all time.

Karl Langdon took a shot at goal which sailed wide and into the arms of Sumich who lined up to kick from an acute angle.

“If I had my time over again I would have gone a banana kick,” Sumich said. “But I was probably playing more the percentages.

“I thought I could still kick it with a drop punt and plus then there was going to be no way I could miss the whole lot and not kick a point and drawn the game at least. Whereas with the banana if you don’t hit it right it could go anywhere. So I did go the drop point and it just missed.

“There was disappointment, but of course Fatty Lamb came up after and said don’t worry mate, we got an extra game, an extra match payment.

“That was a key factor, everyone was pretty happy, got a few extra dollars in the pocket after. But it was just one of those things. And of course it was the last drawn final that will ever be played.”
