With apologies to Southerner et al, Bazza I trust you weren't amongst the crowd leaving before the final siren?

As a matter of interest will you be going to the GF to support Souths in the ressies?

Nah mate stayed to final siren

It really was pleasant arvo a stark contrast to any game involving Sdfc , wonderful to see some many mainstream folk turn out and enjoy a family atmosphere without the Mansons

As a side 25 buck entry a bit steep

not sure about next week at this stage.

With respect to the $25 and I am paraphrasing from the WAFC official i spoke to the prices were decided by the WAFC in concert with the WAFL clubs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if you were a WAFL member it cost you DOUBLE to attend the preliminary final than to attend the GF. Whomever thought that was a good idea should get an honorary MBA from Harvard because they couldn't possibly get a real one.

Congrats on a terrific season doggies. It's just a bloody shame the incompetent WAFC pitted us against each other today...it would have been far better if it was next week. I honestly believe your run and carry as we saw today would have troubled Freo next week but I guess we'll never know.

BC would you recommend that all neutral supporters should boycott the GF next week to send the WAFC a very powerful message?

Cant talk for BC Swan but maybe neutrals might consider "doing a Force" and turn up in their own clubs colours and with a protest banner would be appropriate.

42...I guess it's up to the individual how you send the message. Some will boycott the game whereas others like SS will wear G7 club colours in protest. If Subi had been beaten today I personally probably wouldn't have gone next week even though I've been going to footy at Subi Oval for 60 years...the thing is with all the press the alignment and qualification rules have been getting over the last couple of weeks I think the WAFC well and truly understand that your average WAFL supporter isn't happy.

SS to quote the late, great Ken Howard London to a brick on the protest banner would not get through the turnstiles.

Some souths dudes had a banner today, not 100% sure what it said but think it might of been someghing to do with the alignment.

Bird on the Loftus St gate looked a bit awkward asking for the 50 bucks for the Mrs and I , i asked for my 10 bucks change for 50, didnt get any, she said its only 15 next week,I said do you know South are definitely in it?

This final 5 caper sure is expensive if you end up going to 4 games.

Bazza I presume you are both South's supporters, so it should have been $20 each. I would send an email to the WAFC and ask for a cheque of $10 back since you were overchargeed.
