The Tigers' place in the final will be decided in a last-round shootout after they traded their title of king of the jungle for dominion over the swamps of Revo Fitness Stadium with a convincing 58-point victory over West Coast on Saturday.
The pitch could have been renamed “Revo Fitness Lake” as persistent heavy rain turned the once pristine turf into a swamp, but Claremont mastered the conditions and held the inexperienced Eagles to just three goals.
