Hopefully their strength is addressed by the WAFC before it is too late but wishful thinking in that regard.
I was astonished some here on ozfooty were posting this mob need more help earlier in the year fair dinkum.
How they were allowed a marquee player (Grey) on top of up to 22 Eagles if they have no injuries which can occur and then to just bring in Petrie mid season willy nilly talk about taking the piss out of the comp, and what happened to only having amateur players as top ups who have been out of the WAFL system for at least 2 years as I see Busher who was playing at EP earlier in the season is now on their list but no doubt nothing to see here from Taylor & co at Roberts Rd.

They make up the rules as they go along Beas.

With them BC it depends on who you get at any particular game, yesterday they had Petruccelle who booted 5 goals, Waterman played well with 6 goals and Mcinnes with 3, Putrie killed us in the ruck, it was a strong team we faced, and now they are in the 5 and it reminds of when Peel come from behind and belted everyone in its path, remembering that this is a new club, can you imagine what they will be like in a couple of years..

Yeh its a worry Beasley, I don't think It is a matter of complaining about this as double DD recons, it's more of a concern for the competition in general.

It is simply astonishing how much the WAFC bend over for both WC & Peelmantle Falc.
Remember the EP Eagles were playing in GF's and Finals every year and the weak as water WAFC still allowed them to top up with the likes of McGinnity, Wellingham, Maginness etc whilst at Peelmantle Merrett, Jetta, Ugle etc on top of all their Dockers already there.
What help have they given to a struggling club like SD to help get them off the bottom.....sweet fark all is the answer!

BC the likes of Horsley, Marsh, Lockyer, Newton et al weren't A graders at their respective AFL clubs, yet appear to be top tier WAFL players...one would like to think to get on an AFL list u have to be half decent footballer in the first place.....WCE seconds have just got a good number to choose from, early on they didn't thus the early losses as DD highlighted.....IF they stay like this, then as Leedy and others rightly say they have the ability to go deep.....but I have no probs with that.....it is what it is.....and no doubt if Perth cop a shellacking in the finals from WCE....DD will be comfortable with that and accept it for what it is.......as he is a reasonable fella

You are right.You got them at the wrong time,East Perth beat them earlier with a weaker west coast team and have beaten Peel who have hardly any afl listed big men.I suspect West coast will be a easier task this week with Cripps and Nicnat out two quality players will have to go out.

WC height dominated. The score was only a few goals in it until the 17 minute of the last quarter and for the next 13 minutes WC got the ball out of the center so cleanly that ended up being goals. Even their armature recruits have bulked up. The lost of West in thuggersh circumstances unsettled the team and for a while we played the man. At least you can get a decent beer at Lathlain.

If WC get a few injuries, they wont be strong. If any wafl club has two or three fresh out of the system afl player they are generally strong.

Brady Grey got 2 weeks for his hit on young West. After looking at the vision on the West online he should have got 4 for mine. High contact, was off the ground, not going for the ball and high impact.
