It was the 49th annual Grand Final of the West Australian National Football League, staged to determine the premiers for the 1979 WANFL season. The match, attended by 52,781 spectators, the record crowd for a football match at Subiaco, was won by East Fremantle by a margin of 33 points, marking that club's 25th premiership victory.

Build up

Throughout the 1979 season, Claremont was the strongest side in the league, winning the minor premiership and defeating both Fremantle clubs during the home and away season. When finals came around though, both East Fremantle and South Fremantle hit form. Souths defeated the minor premiers in the second semi final to advance directly to the Grand Final, whilst East narrowly (2pts) overcame East Perth in the first semi final before comfortably (4 goals) beating Claremont in the Preliminary Final. It was East Fremantle's second Grand Final appearance in three years and the first of South's three successive Grand Final appearances.
