East Perth???
I vaguely remember them ...they once used to be a WAFL club in their own right did they not!!!

Things won't be as bad this year but the way West Coasts squad is shaping up next season they will be an absolute power house and the comp will be a farce... If it's not already

That is a mighty fine description. Our once fine wafl comp that was on the way back has been sold down the river.

And a proud club who won on their Merit - No more as they will be carried by the AFL players.

I feel said organisation WILL NEED to change the club song. Surely to keep up with the times, it also can't stay the same? As some people suggest, we need to accept the alignment and move on? Bearing that in mind, said club cannot continue with the old song. I think it being penned in the 1950's

The example below seems more appropriate.

East Perth were forever boys
East Perth we were
Royals t’was a great tradition
Now wads of cash is our mission
East Perth not forever boys
Sold our soul for the new cause
For we were the mighty royals
Some said the greatest team of all
We’ll defeat other aligned
Whether it wet or fine
We’ll even play the others
At the bell, who’ll be behind
Now no doubt about it
Wafl’s now gone the reason for it
East Perth were forever boys
East Perth we were
Royals now not a great tradition
Now wads of cash is our mission
East Perth used to be forever boys
Now we’ve rooted the cause
For we were the mighty royals
We’ve helped stuff the wafl up for us all.
