West Coast are tapping into the magic of the Olympics as they attempt to navigate their way through a daunting end to the home-and-away AFL season.Eagles coach Adam Simpson used the Australian womens 4x100m freestyle win at the Rio Olympics to inspire his team to victory in Sundays western derby against Fremantle.Bronte and Cate Campbell produced powerful third and fourth legs to lift Australia to gold in that relay, and West Coast were responsible for a dominant second-half display to turn a 15-point deficit into a 46-point win.The Olympics have come at a perfect time for the Eagles, who are in desperate need of some inspiration after producing patchy form for most of the season.With just three rounds remaining, West Coast sit in sixth spot with a 13-6 record.But with games against premiership hopefuls Greater Western Sydney (away), Hawthorn (home), and Adelaide (away) to come, the Eagles face an uphill battle to snare a top-four berth.Eagles defender Will Schofield has embraced the Olympic spirit, getting up at 4am on Monday to catch up on all the action.Schofield said it was refreshing when Simpson used the Olympics as inspiration before the derby, and said he hopes therell be more to come.Its great watching the Olympics, and seeing how they go about it, Schofield said.They probably put in a lot more work than we do.Theyve got one chance in four years. Were lucky, we get to back up next week.Footys an interesting game. Its a long year, and to be able to find different focus points other than the normal ones we have every week, it was a good little challenge for us.Schofield said the Eagles were working hard to address their inconsistent form.You look at Hawthorn - they play their best footy in September, Schofield said.Well be trying to do that.We probably havent been in the best form in the last couple of months, but weve won (six) out of the last (seven).So to be able to do that and get the wins is good for us, and well be working on our form.Eagles forward Josh Kennedy was the hero of Sundays derby, booting seven goals to win the Ross Glendinning medal.The haul put Kennedy six goals ahead of Sydneys Lance Franklin and Gold Coasts Tom Lynch in the race for the Coleman medal.

Speaking as the curtain was set to come down on the World Indoor Championships, the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) president said changes introduced in Portland could feature at next years World Outdoor Championships in London.In the shot put, long jump and triple jump the field was whittled down to the top four athletes for the final attempts in each event, with the changes made in order to ensure that the entire focus of the crowd was on the finale of each event as it took place. Great Britains Robbie Grabarz competes in the high jump final at the IAAF World Indoor Championships in Portland While the innovations appeared to be well-received by spectators, they were not universally embraced by athletes, with New Zealand shot put star Valerie Adams complaining on Saturday about delays in her event.

But Id rather be in a sport where we sometimes have to say Okay, that didnt work quite as planned rather than sitting there sclerotically for the next 10 years. IAAF president Sebastian Coe You arent going to see growth and development of the sport like that if you dont innovate.ddddddddddddSome of the things that weve road-tested here youll see in other formats. And youll see evidence of that in London 2017 and beyond.Coe meanwhile insisted that the absence of Russia in Portland - banned from competition after last years World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) report which uncovered a systemic doping regime in Russian athletics - had not tarnished the meeting.

Nobody is denying the challenges that lie ahead to regain trust but this has been a pretty good start.
