I've been to the G a lot more times than you have. How can you compare the speedway track with the G. There's no comparison. You will find out on Sat how the bog track handles the wet.

To clarify Roman, I meant the shape only. Clearly the surface is substandard even for the kids at Auskick

It's the shape of a circle designed for speedway.
Come this Sat with all this rain it will be a bog patch good for farmers.

The fence was moved before the start of the season so as to be the same shape as the MCG, to allow AFL clubs to train there if they so wish, don't get grumpy on the Claremont thread because you've got 2 more games against Peel and for 3 years you've been coached by " 4 fried chickens and a coke" Haselby!
MO surprised your players struggled, given the speedway has always had its fair share of bogans attending. As for Broodbridge, he's rebuilding given the number of retirements, 6 wins, 2 over your side, not bad. Your two losses to a side that is hardly flying would indicate September will be short and sweet.

i take it you think that Swans are not rebuilding also ?

If you read what I said at the start of this thread you wouldn't ask that question. I had a crack at your "cheap shot", given we've lost 17 senior players I'd say we are rebuilding, and doing well, considering we are above South, Perth and Peel. Swans, it could be argued have been rebuilding since winning the 2010 "cough medicine" GF.

Gee, it really has hurt you losing to us a 2nd time. Something else happen? Transit guard check you ticket and fine you?
We had 8 or 9 regular league players from last seasons side.Lost 17 players from the 2012 GF side. You've been rebuilding 2011, 2012, 2013 and claim to be rebuilding 2014...nearly as long as the pyramids!
Oh, and we won all 3 grades League , Reserves and Colts...over to you Pharoh.

And just tickety-boo with me, and sadly, I'm no expert, had to go to www.wafl.com.au to see how many players had played the previous season, unlike you who pulls figures out of your head with ease.
Sadly, as with you in the last 3 seasons, we won't be in the GF in 2014, but i rest assured knowing you won't either.
