TOPIC:

Which WAFL club do posters think has the most supporters attending away games?

LOL 42....think we already know the answer to that question mate.....you SD boys tell us lot all the farkin time it's you lot!!......but to stroke you SD boys much needed ego's..... I will say Swan Districts followed by the Perth fans.....though the SD numbers do depend on how well SD are going for that particular season.....heard in 2016 SD attendance figures dropped off a tad for some reason.....but picked up again last year......sounds like numbers may dip again....well definitely by one atleast as DW has made his intentions clear early on in the piece what he will doing with his 2018 autumn & winter weekends.

Out of interest 42....when the WAFL meets it's apparent death....what are you SD boys gonna do with your weekends?.....perhaps you guys should start preparing for this eventuality sooner rather than later, like what many WAFL fans appear to be doing sadly these days.

EP even in their current zombie state.

LB...reckon EP may get a few more fans through the gates when the Ryan/Rioli show comes to town.....

Whilst I haven’t officially made a call Freez it appears at this stage I will be watching a lot of colts footy in 2018 then venturing off in the avo to participate at amateur level again in 2018. This all despite our recent recruiting efforts.

As for this topic I would say EP clearly have the biggest away game supporter group whereas SD probably have the most seen/vocal group.

Swans clearly the best for away support.
West Perth still seem to get a few and Perth remarkably still has a decent away following.
East Perth nowhere near what they used to be.

Is this really worth discussing when we are looking at numbers in the hundreds rather than thousands? Don't think it will matter much in a few years anyway.

Just seems like 42 needs to shore up his battered ego with tall stories and true about his beloved Swans. As you say we are talking in 10's and 100's so really quite irrellevant.

Whatever mikeh and SS think doesn't make their opinion the final arbiter as to what topics can be posted and whether other posters choose to comment on the topic.

SS I have been a supporter of Swans since the 1960s; I am very aware of how successful we have been during that time. One only needs to go back to the 2016 season. However, if one accepts the premise that the WAFL is on its last legs and from what I have seen from the two WA domiciled AFL clubs; the lily-livered cowards in the WAFC that purport to support the WAFL but in reality do exactly the opposite; and the extent that Subiaco have recruited for the 2017 it is highly likely that the WAFC is irretrievably doomed and will fold by the end of the 2019 season. The irony in the year 2020 Subiaco will rue their complete disregard to the damage they have done to the WAFL and their part in the demise of the WAFL.

who has Subi recruited 42 other Zac Clarke with dodgy knees who didn't play in 2017, Ben Newton who didn't play in 2017 due to an ankle and Rohde who played for Jurien? Others such as Deluca, Waters and Bradley are all Subi products coming home which even you couldn't begrudge.
