TOPIC:

South Fremantle FC voted vehemently against the official first VFL entry in 1986 - and even further back in 1981/1982 when East Perth first tried it on

As for the 1995 entry - well there was a shitfight over that one too given the player drain in 1986

The Freo council were the biggest shakers in that one Grassy

Spot on Southerner Remeber talking to directors about the eagles and indian pacific at the time and prophetic statement that if these scumbags and VFL get there way it would be the end of Wafl as we know it....sffc and sdfc ....the two Strongest Voices with a loud NO, and were bitterly opposed to the entry of Peel, fought it all the way...but sadly others caved in...say no more!

Ah the Mandurah abortion Baz - well they are solely responsible for the shambolic episode of the crooked unfathomably warped Zonal system we currently put up with
Not to mention their embarrassing performances since day dot
The official vote was 5 to 4 in the Mandurah debacle and that was because the WAFC had a casting vote

I am led to believe West Perth & Claremont were the other againsts

But don't worry.You know how close I came to giving John Walker a Gobfull at the WACA(during the Hybrid Gaelic Test)in '86?That frickin' close,but given my mate got me into the Members' Bar,I kept my trap shut for his sake,so he wouldn't lose his membership on my account.Every chance I said something in Radio about the new VFL Entry from WA later on.

So,if the Council planted them in to FREMANTLE Oval,was there any public protest about it?Any?'

Public protest against what? Something we have zero control over? Make no mistake there was plenty of objection to the shared use of the oval re training and some dramas between the two...then there was the shambles of players and finals release, You'll notice we put up no case for them staying. But guess what we never took or got a penny from FFC when they built there, unlike your mob who took the 30 pieces of silver to build at Latho from the Budgies.

Two reasons Grasser

1. The FCC own the land at Freo Oval
2. The absolute bloodcurdling hatred of the WCE southwards of Petra Street (or maybe a touch further than that particular street)

But go on,you mentioned the Commission,so help Bazza,say Barry.

He can do it!

You asked for clarification champion - well I've given it , simple

Another long winded diatribe .... Not taking advice from Bob are we !

I guess I can expect to see you protesting with a placard in front of those Eagles bulldozers ....my bet is you won't be seen.

So what would they be Grassy sending text to 6pr that are ignored or shouting out at AGMs to refuse one cent from the devil incarnate !

Nup they built there own club rooms neve used ours the club protested about the loss of training times on the oval , the pricks had council bending backwards for them
Funny the purple corporates just dumped them
And walked to Cockburn ,,,complete joke.

Your mobs getting a quid from WCE for your new humpy and the tax payer! Gee why Wce have 60 mill in the bank what about the pensioners ?

Time for a new topic lads this one has been lead up the garden path....
