title="West Australian Football League">Western Australian National Football League</a>. It is best known for West Perth's record <a href="/wiki/Losing_streak" title="Losing streak">losing streak</a> of twenty-seven matches up to the fifteenth round, an ignominy equalled by <a href="/wiki/Peel_Thunder_Football_Club" title="Peel Thunder Football Club">Peel Thunder</a> in their formative years but never actually beaten.<sup id="cite_ref-Consecutive_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Consecutive-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The Cardinals finished with the worst record since <a href="/wiki/Midland_Junction_Football_Club" title="Midland Junction Football Club">Midland Junction</a> lost all twelve games in 1917, and were the first WANFL team with only one victory for twelve seasons.<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> In their only win, champion forward <a href="/wiki/Ted_Tyson" title="Ted Tyson">Ted Tyson</a> became the first West Australian to kick over one thousand goals and he just failed to replicate his 1938 feat of leading the goalkicking for a bottom club. Subiaco, despite a second Sandover win from Haydn Bunton (in spite of several problematic leg injuries) won only three matches, and Swan Districts, affected by the loss of star goalkicker <a href="/wiki/Ted_Holdsworth" title="Ted Holdsworth">Ted Holdsworth</a> to Kalgoorlie,<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> began a long period as a cellar-dweller with a fall to sixth. </p><p>Claremont, with captain George Moloney returning to the goalfront from the centre, won their second consecutive premiership despite the loss of many key players in the week before the Grand Final, whilst East Fremantle and East Perth remained firmly entrenched in the top and had a neck-and-neck battle late in the season for the double chance. Perth and South Fremantle, both of whom had had long periods in the wilderness, fought an exciting battle for the last place in the top four that ended with the red and whites winning by the narrowest of margins, in the process providing a basis for the club's <a href="/wiki/Dynasty_(sports)" title="Dynasty (sports)">dynasty</a> following <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, which began on the weekend of the penultimate round. </p><p>Two key rule changes were made in the WANFL and nationally in 1939. The <a href="/wiki/Holding_the_ball" title="Holding the ball">holding the ball</a> rule was altered to eliminate the provision for a player to drop the ball when tackled, meaning that a player was forced to either kick or handpass the ball when tackled to avoid conceding a free kick; and, the boundary throw-in was reintroduced whenever the ball went out of bounds, except when put out deliberately, instead of a free kick being awarded against the last player to touch the ball, as had been the case since 1925.<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> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Home-and-away_season">Home-and-away season</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1939_WANFL_season&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Home-and-away season"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Round_1">Round 1</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=1939_WANFL_season&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Round 1"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <table cellspacing="0" style="width: 100%;
