Believe this list was the best goal to goal line up, as usual the injury curse severely impacted this group from winning a flag... 

Stynes, Lyon , Shcwarz, Neitz, Jackovich, Tingay, Pike, Lovett, Prymke, Lovell 

Goals 
Lyon 79

Schwarz 60

Jackovich 51

Pike 25

Charles 24

lovell  29

    1994 was another year that “could have been”. We had a great forward line. 
     

    Lyon Schwarz Lovell
    Pike Jakovich Charles

    Neita at CHB. Stynes in the ruck. Tingay in the wing.  

    Mids  Viney Obst G.Lovett Tingay Dyson Matt Febey  Steve Febey

    Our defence was pretty good too with Wight, Brett Lovett,  Hoppy, Yeats and Prymke as a first year player. 

    Why we didn’t win it? 
    1- we finished 7th.  After. 5-0 start, we ended 12-10

    2- Had to beat the Eagles at home in the preliminary final. They were powerful, at home and rested after a weeks break.

    Prymke’s injuries cost us big time. Very solid, under rated

    I agree, he was a super talent and would have made a difference over the following decade.  Degenerative back injury on memory.  A few year Slater we had Newton I think with a very similar injury.  Then Jako/Lyon, it was the decade of bad backs unfortunately :(

    The Eagles were an excellent team in 94 - very underrated when we talk about the great teams.  

    For as good as our forward line was, teams simply couldn’t get a look in against a backline of: Jakovich, Worsfold, McKenna, McIntosh and Brennan.

    Note that the weagles backline comprised local wa players who had been gifted to the weagles when they entered the league.

    We had recruited so well but still couldn't beat a gifted team.

    Those gifted wa players were given to them at the end of the 80’s when the club almost collapse after what was considered a failed start.  The wa public had expected to win the flag in their first year when they saw their starting squad.  They special draft set them up for a decade, plus a decent AFL coach in Malthouse, who modernised their footy thinking from the original coach in terms of preparation and structures.  Interesting what might have happened if the pies didn’t lose the game when they had it under control in the first week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
