Premierships Current clubs Defunct Clubs Consecutive appearances Consecutive Premierships Consecutive Grand Finals Prior to
1904, the premiership and runners-up of the season were decided by position on the ladder (1st and 2nd, respectively). From 1904 onwards, a grand final was played to determine the premiers of that year. Since no grand final was played prior to 1904, despite
East Fremantle either winning a premiership or being determined as the runners-up in the years of
1899-
1903 (L, W, L, W, W), these years are not counted additionally towards
East Fremantle's consecutive grand final appearances from
1904-
1912. 1 East Fremantle drew the
1905 WAFA Grand Final and was defeated by West Perth in the replay. 2 Claremont drew the
1938 WANFL Grand Final, and defeated East Fremantle in the replay.
Grand Final Matchups Grand finals commenced from
1904, onwards. Grand final replays are not counted as individual appearances. This table is a list of all the grand final matchups in the
West Australian Football League by order of how often two teams have played against each other. The table denotes the number of grand final appearances between two teams, the year(s) both teams have played against each other, and the premiership years(s) of each team (if any at all).
Premiership Droughts The following tables summarise the different premiership droughts for each club. The first table is limited to droughts lasting twenty or more seasons, while the other three are specific to each club (two of which span the entire competition, including all 21 teams). The duration of the drought is given as the number of full seasons contested between premierships; the season in which the drought is broken is considered to be part of the drought, and if the drought began from a club's entry to the league, the club's inaugural season is also considered to be part of the drought. Grand final replays are not included in grand final appearances. The
East Perth Football Club (Royals) currently playing in the WAFL since 1906, are only referred to as
East Perth (II) when appearing on the same table along with the original
East Perth Football Club (1891 - 1892), to avoid any confusion with the lesser known club (
East Perth (I)).
