All witnesses have finished giving evidence in the ongoing civil trial against an Australian rules legend, accused of sexually assaulting or inappropriately touching three women when they were young girls.

Now entering the fifth day of the trial in the Western Australia District Court, Monday saw the final witnesses cross-examined by lawyer for the plaintiff Tim Hammond, giving evidence against WAFL and VFL legend Barry Cable.

The plaintiff, known to the court as ZYX to protect her identity, claims Mr Cable sexually harassed and assaulted her from the age of 12 in 1967, well into her adult years in 1991.
