So the competition just doesn't try playing on different days to try and attract the 1000's of football fans that are busy playing/coaching/watching amateur football or busy working on Saturdays?
The WAFL isn't in a position where they can just wait around for people to come to them, they need to start bringing people to the game.
I can just see in 5-10 years time when the new stadium is built the same people complaining now will be complaining then that the competition didn't do enough to attract those on AFL waiting lists to the WAFL. It is a huge opportunity just going down the drain at the moment. Can't blame them though, everytime they try something the establishment complain about change and everything is changed back.
Playing around the AFL games is a must mate. 100% on your side.
Sadly, it's the coaches and players who vote against playing on Sundays in particular.
