Augusta-Margaret River product Jono Marsh matches career-best WAFL haul with seven goals against Claremont

Augusta-Margaret River product Jono Marsh matched his career-best WAFL goal tally with seven as East Fremantle thrashed Claremont by 90 points at the weekend. The power forward booted five majors in a dominant first-half display, with a badly mis-hit set shot from 20m out still managing to float through in a clear sign it was his day. After a brief injury scare that saw him hobble from the ground with an ankle complaint in the third term, he then capped off the outing with two brilliant drop punt finishes from deep in the pocket in the latter stages of the final quarter. Marsh missed the Sharks’ breakthrough grand final win last year in heartbreaking fashion after being ruled out on the eve of the game due to an adductor injury. Marsh’s older brother Harry, who joined the Sharks last year and starred in the premiership campaign, is on the sidelines due to a hamstring injury suffered on the eve of the season that required surgery. He is expected to miss three months of football. Oscar Armstrong, another Augusta-Margaret River product, has joined West Coast’s reserves side from South Fremantle but is sidelined with a quad injury.
