Undoubtedly on the right track
Minus 2 experienced players Graham and Whitey from last week,
Bell gone after 5 minutes today and we still win.

Clint Jones has been fantastic 450 disposals in 13 games

Out of the matches played from this round, Perth had the highest tackle count of all the league matches. And their third highest tackle count for the season so far.

Yep, spot on.
That's why I think we're getting there.
When it clicks some poor team is going to cop it.
Straight kicking and it would have been all over by half time.
Hard for me, not seeing the game, but the stats are outstanding every week.
Mitch Andrews clearly won the hit outs but we must have won the clearances.
Unfortunately no clearance stats on the WAFL website.

I thought Cody Leggett did a top job tagging Bolton and Giannati completely shut down Bradshaw and when he cracked the sooks after getting reported and kept looking for the bench he blanketed that other weasel Richardson.

I can see Lennon Marlin getting on an AFL list. He can kick, he can mark and he's a good decision maker.

Not quite sure why you said that to me specifically but I agree, I want Perth to make the finals

Why has it been a horrible year for the WAFL ?

Crowds are way down thats why. And I am talking way down even from the last lean years. The once proud club of East Perth now gets as little as 400 people to their games. This is a tragedy for the proud 125 year history of WAFL.

Even strongly supported clubs like Swans and WP who are not aligned have shown significant drop offs in their numbers.

Good players like Elari and Simpson walking away because the demands are great and the support and money are not worth it for them this is sad too

I have real doubts about the accuracy of crowd numbers, people at the gate putting a dash on a piece of paper.
