Out-of-favour big man Elliott Himmelberg (14 disposals, four contested marks and an inaccurate 1.3) also tried hard, while uncapped big man Kieran Strachan amassed 41 hitouts, six tackles and 17 touches in a solid ruck display.

State league affiliate: Peel Thunder (WAFL)

Out-of-favour defender Reece Conca did his chances of a senior recall no harm with a standout performance for Peel Thunder, during their 44-point loss to Subiaco.

Conca collected 27 disposals and was a steady influence in his usual defensive role, with inexperienced ruckman Lloyd Meek (13 disposals and 31 hitouts) also impressing in the loss.

Luckless defender Alex Pearce got through the match unscathed as he continues his return from a knee injury, collecting just seven disposals and two marks.

Dumped defender Hamish Hartlett produced a solid performance at SANFL level, contributing 21 disposals and seven marks as Port Adelaide defeated West Adelaide by 29 points.

Youngster Joel Garner (20 disposals and eight marks) was best afield for Port, while former Lion Sam Mayes (30 touches, eight marks and seven clearances) and dashing defender Martin Frederick (17 disposals) weren't far behind.

Big man Sam Hayes (16 disposals and 36 hitouts) once again impressed in the ruck, while veteran utility and ex-Collingwood premiership player Tyson Goldsack (20 disposals and two goals) also made a solid contribution.

State league affiliate: West Coast (WAFL)
This weekend: South Fremantle v West Coast - Saturday May 29, 2.10pm, Fremantle Community Bank Oval

Ball-magnet Xavier O’Neill (24 disposals, six tackles, 10 inside 50s) was West Coast's best player during their disappointing 66-point loss to reigning premier South Fremantle.

Mark Hutchings (21 disposals) and Zane Trew (20) also won plenty of the ball, while young forward Brayden Ainsworth managed 17 touches and a goal from limited opportunities.

It was a dirty day for former Geelong big man Nathan Vardy, with the ruckman reported for striking and giving away four free kicks in his nine-disposal game.
