1992, June 22, West Australian, Story and photo “Fringe performer grabs centre stage”. Claremont mid-fielder Mat Elliott has taken 4 seasons to play 12 WAFL games but on Saturday he showed that this was not a true reflection of his ability. Elliott was one of a band of runners who swamped Swan Districts for a 14 point win. The 23 year old left footer in 1988 but his career was curtailed by injury and overseas travel. He reserved his best game against Swan Districts combining with Kevin Mitchell, Brendan Green Brad Wira and David Ham to set up a 41 point half time lead.
