Snapshot of West Coast's AFL final win

A snapshot of West Coast's AFL elimination final win over Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval.

SNAPSHOT OF THE PORT ADELAIDE-WEST COAST AFL ELIMINATION FINAL:

* Result: West Coast 12.6 (78) bt Port Adelaide 10.16 (76) after extra time at Adelaide Oval

* Key moment: With less than a minute left on the clock and scores locked at 60 points apiece, the ball squirted towards Port Adelaide's goalposts. But Eric Mackenzie showed a cool head to guide it into the point post under pressure to ensure no score was registered

But ultimately it came down to a Luke Shuey shot on goal following the siren after Jared Polec took him high. Shuey was mobbed by his teammates after his shot from 40m out on a 45-degree angle went through

* Tribunal watch: Port's Hamish Hartlett left the ground dazed after high contact from Drew Petrie in the first period of extra time

* Injuries: Hamish Hartlett (PA, head knock), Luke Shuey (WC, foot)

* What's next?: West Coast will play Greater Western Sydney in a sudden-death semi-final at Spotless Stadium on Saturday night. Port Adelaide have been eliminated from the 2017 finals series.
