1934 WANFL season

Swan Districts made their debut in the league, losing by 17 points to East Fremantle, with George Doig kicking eight goals.

Swan Districts won their first WANFL game, which was also the first game played at Bassendean Oval.

George Doig kicks another nine goals, whilst Victoria Park hangs on against East Perth despite not goalling in the final term.

• Victoria Park fall two points shy of the current record WA(N)FL score set in 1916.^[24] Gook kicks eight goals for his first major WANFL performance and veteran Johnston six from a half-forward flank.
• West Perth play superbly in a preview of the Grand Final, with George Doig held to two goals.

An inaccurate West Perth overhauls Subiaco, already leaving the 1933 grand finalists in danger of moving out of the running.

• Tyson kicks thirteen goals in slippery conditions to give the newcomers their third straight loss, whilst East Fremantle end Victoria Park's run of four wins in a row.
• Jerry Dolan, who had transferred to the Royals after ten seasons with East Fremantle, returns as a player as East Perth downs Subiaco.

• A Rainoldi behind after the bell gives the Cardinals a sixth win, and their only win with two fewer goals.^[37]
• Skinner kicks ten as a Claremont-Cottesloe team minus Keith Hough and Neilson wins its first game of the season.

• Victoria Park play their best game for many years in extremely wet conditions with two-day rainfall of 3.82 inches (97 mm)^[42] to outplay the leaders with a superb first half of 9.6 (60) to 2.8 (20).
• Despite the wet conditions, George Doig maintains his amazing average of eight goals per game.

• East Perth makes an amazing recovery after being forty-one points behind during the first quarter, still a club record.^[51]
• Ted Tyson kicks eleven goals for the Cardinals.
• Old Easts storm home against Subiaco after being outplayed in the first half.

• Swan Districts took the field with only seventeen men against Victoria Park before the injured Krepp and Mosey strip, but still kick their lowest three-quarter time score until 1946 and fifth-lowest on record.
• East Fremantle play superbly in awful conditions with 2.80 inches (71 mm)^[42] over two days. Tyson is kept to one goal by Woods, whilst the Cardinals cannot cover injuries to key defender Tetley and rover Rainoldi.

• Claremont-Cottesloe's score, on a waterlogged ground after another 1.99 inches (50.5 mm) of steady rain during the previous four days^[60] remains its lowest-ever against East Fremantle.^[61]
• A severely depleted West Perth produce an amazing comeback from 13.11 (89) to 3.8 (26) down at three-quarter time to be only 14 points down with five minutes to go before the Maroons – who had not entered attack all quarter – steady.

In conditions which shocked the South Australians as Adelaide had been experiencing extremely dry weather and dust storms,^[63] Western Australia's extraordinary accuracy with a slippery ball – 11.0 (66) to late in the second quarter – ensures the locals an untroubled victory in the first interstate match played in Perth since 1929.^[62]

In conditions totally different from the rainy Saturday,^[60] South Australia produce an impressive display to win after being narrowly behind most of the afternoon.

In a close match of low standard due to the absence of interstate players such as George Doig, Gook, Jarvis, Shepherd, McGlinn and Fitzgerald, Victoria Park move with their narrow win and West Perth's surprise loss to second position.

• East Fremantle again show their superiority in heavy rain with an 8.5 (53) to 2.4 (16) second half.
• West Perth, with Tyson injured, outplay South Fremantle after a hard-fought first half.

West Perth win with a brilliant torpedo punt from McGarry after the bell.

George Doig kicks his hundredth goal in third quarter, but East Fremantle stops to a walk and just holds on.

Ted Tyson kicked fifteen goals, at the time a WA(N)FL record.^[85] In doing so, he reaches the hundred as the Cardinals inflict Claremont-Cottesloe's biggest loss until 1952 and still their fourth-biggest ever.^[86]

On another wet Saturday,^[6][91] East Fremantle comfortably account for West Perth even with George Doig only kicking one goal six. The final four is settled with three rounds remaining, and Old Easts seal an unprecedented seventh successive minor premiership.^[a]

• George Doig beats Tyson's record against the Tigers, kicking nineteen of twenty-two goals against that same club, who were handicapped by full-back Batt having an injured hand.^[92] It remained a WANFL record until 1953^{[note 2]} when Bernie Naylor set the current record of 23 against Subiaco.
• Albert Gook kicks seven as Victoria Park lead 19.22 (136) to 6.10 (46) at the last change before easing off.

East Fremantle kick 17.12 (114) to 5.4 (34) after quarter-time, with George Doig kicking another thirteen goals. In the process Old Easts seal the finals matchups by depriving Victoria Park of any chance to take second position.

• Speed on a firmer ground gives East Perth an excellent win over East Fremantle.
• Claremont-Cottesloe end a run of thirteen straight losses.

This was Victoria Park's first finals win since 1915 when known by their more familiar name of 'Perth', which they reverted to before their next senior finals appearance in 1947.

Despite the absence of "Checker" O‘Keefe, West Perth crush the Victoria Park attack, with Flemming holding Gook scoreless.
