2005, March 29, The West Australian, story and photo “Royals melt as Tigers pile on the pressure”. Claremont overcame oppressive conditions, a heavy surface and a loss through injury of a player coach Ashley Prescott calls “as the heart and soul of the team” to crush East Perth by 13 goals at Leederville Oval yesterday. The stunning win was soured only by the injury to Rory Walton. Trainers are photographed with the Club Doctor, Dr. Lim, carrying Walton from the ground. He was one of the better midfielders along with Claremont captain Jaxon Crabb, Rowan Jones, Mitch Morton and Tony Delaney. Trent Carroll played a great game also Darren Kowal, Tim Nelli, Tom Matson, Tim Greaney, Anthony Jones, and David Crawford.
