1958 Grand Final Port 14.10 94 d West 14.8 92

Colour highlights from grand final plus Port post-match dinner celebration and speeches. Port Adelaide defeated West Adelaide by 2 points, in a heart failure-inducing finish. West Adelaide missed a chance to win when a shot hit the goal post with 90 seconds left to play. That night, four West Adelaide players (including Neil Kerley) broke into Adelaide Oval and chopped down the offending goal post. Match report: The grand final will go down in history as one of the most exciting, and whoever lost the match were unlucky, as right up to the last few seconds of the match it was anybody's title. At three-quarter time West had a handy 10-point lead, and the last quarter started off at a sizzling pace. Port picked up the leeway, and with a couple of minutes to go, and with West trailing by 3 points, Richardson (West) shot for goal, but just as it looked as though he had raised a 6 pointer, the ball veered and hit the post. Then with seconds to go McGregor pulled down the mark out on an acute angle and quickly passed it to Brown, who was straight in front, but some 50 yards out. Unfortunately for Wests, this kick did not go the distance, and the game had been won. Fos Williams, after taking the Magpies to their fifth title in a row, announced his retirement, and after darkness had fallen on the Adelaide Oval someone unknown chopped down the goalpost that had offended by getting in the way of what should have been West's winning goal.
