Woodville in 1985 with 46.35% was the last.West in 1979 had  48.3%
 
and they had 6 wins, IIRC, which might be a record for the bottom placed team.  Wan't much between 10th and 7th.  If only Woodville had beaten Port at Woodville, Port would have come bottom.   

 
West had 7 wins and a draw in a 22 game season. 
The ladder for that year shows how even it was
