<a href="/wiki/Perth" title="Perth">Perth</a>, Western Australia. With the background of war completely removed, 1947 saw the WANFL begin a golden age of growth<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> dominated by the two Fremantle clubs, West Perth and Perth, who made the league for the following nine seasons a <i>de facto</i> hierarchy<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> led by South Fremantle and West Perth, who respectively won 128 and 121 of their 159 home-and-away matches between 1947 and 1954.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <a href="/wiki/Zoning_(Australian_rules_football)" title="Zoning (Australian rules football)">Zones</a> with vastly different populations<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and large unzoned areas<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>note 1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> allowed these more successful and financially secure clubs to monopolise the leading player talent. </p><p>The red and whites won their first premiership for thirty seasons – ironically under the leadership of former Cardinal captain-coach <a href="/wiki/Ross_Hutchinson" title="Ross Hutchinson">Ross Hutchinson</a> who transferred for this season. Perth, in the doldrums with only three finals appearances and three seasons with more wins than losses since 1918, began thirty years of prominence during which they won six premierships. In contrast, Subiaco, after two promising postwar seasons were beset by poor recruiting and conflicts over coaching,<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> so that they lost their first eleven games and fell from third to last. The Maroons were not to again win more than five matches in a season until 1956, nor finish above any rival except Swan Districts until 1957. During the nine seasons beginning with this year Subiaco would win just 32 games out of 179, or a winning rate of 17.88 percent. East Fremantle, after their record <a href="/wiki/Perfect_season" title="Perfect season">undefeated season</a> in 1946, fell to fourth place.
