Mr Goodwin fell and hit his head on the corner of the pool table.

Mr Goodwin was admitted to hospital with a fractured skull and brain haemorrhage which led to his death seven days later.

Mosley entered a plea of guilty to manslaughter at Perth Supreme Court today.

Detectives initiated a two day manhunt to find Mosley following the attack.

The maximum sentence for a one-punch-attack was doubled due to a campaign by Mr Goodwin’s parents following his death.

Mosley will be sentenced on December 20.
