    Playoff Final Day - Beaches, Windmills, Cockerels & Cities

    Josh and Tommy catch up to reflect on Saturday's slate of inter-divisional fixtures as Amateur Hour makes a return with North Beach and Morley Windmills enjoying success against State League opposition. We have post-game interviews with Nick Di Carlo (North Beach) and friend of the pod John O'Reilly (Morley Windmills) in the aftermath of those victories before briefly touching on the defeated sides. Attention then turns to Cockburn City's dramatic penalty shootout win over Kalamunda City as Zayd Free's heroics and celebrations see him named as our enhancer of the week.  Next, we talk about Fremantle City's 2-1 win over Joondalup City with reaction from Charlie Betts, whilst praising the Division One side for a fine season and touch on a competitive 2026 ahead in the second tier.

    State Cup Final and Top Four Cup Review - You'd like 2

    Tommy and Kelechi are back to review two cracking weeks of football here in WA. In the Women's we talk about Fremantle lifting their first-ever Women’s State Cup with a commanding 3-0 win over Balcatta - and give flowers to a few familiar faces. In the Top Four Cup, Perth RedStar survived a thriller – Gabby Dal Busco the shootout hero as they beat Perth SC after a 1-1 draw, while Balcatta edged the Academy 4-3 in extra time thanks to a Rachel Jarvis double. In the Men's! Stirling produce a stunning late comeback with Danny Douglas the hero coming off the bench. We wrap up the fixture and highlight some positive stories and also talk about how hard it is to win stuff! We also talk about wins for Glory and Bayswater as the Glory keep their Top Four Cup run alive after a win in the penalty shoot against Perth Redstar while Baysie are in the final!  ------------------------------ A big thank you to all the listeners for your continued support and also to our major sponsor - The Enhance Health Group – who are your trusted provider of comprehensive vocational rehabilitation services in the South West region of Western Australia.
