TOPIC:

All clubs discount memberships as the season goes on, hence memberships continue to be sold late in the season. Last time I looked membership was just $40.

Membership numbers keep on an upward trend…..
Conspiracy theory only or is the club under a branch stacking threat?
Adds to all the current mystery.

notice that the membership
number are always around 1600 until
halway through the year then suddenly they rise at the half way mark of the year.  Yes another conspiracy but I think you will
find over 1000 of these memberships will be significantly reduced in price - yet still have full VOTING rights.  What % do we need again to align? 

Back on again according to Townsend. Knocked down by mid next year and completed by end of 2023. 14 mill to work with, 900 seat grandstand and unisex change rooms to accommodate the Eagles AFLW team.

It is behind a paywall.  Is there any comment where Perth will play in the interim?  My suggestion would be Basso.

So in all the development of the Eagles at Lathlain Park Oval there was no room for women's change rooms?

Games will still be played at Lathlain, They'll use temporary change rooms during construction.

Says in the article Perth have an arrangement to use the Eagles facilities. I would say that is match day only. The club will need to find temporary accommodation in the meantime. Maybe old Tuart Hill High school (still Tuart College?) where the WAFC is located. Got a big oval or two and a swimming pool if it's still there.

Who would know? We're struggling to get a scoreboard sorted at the moment so just another one to add to the list.

Personally, I'd like to see it be members only. The rest of you can watch it on FRS.  

good news mate and hopefully Perth get state of the art buildings and the scoreboard as promised

Obviously the area around where the current stand is now would not be available for people to watch the footy.  Between the two ovals on the wing there would be little room.  It doesn't seem to me to make sense to try to play games there under those circumstances.  Surely playing at Basso would make more sense including financially for Perth and its members/supporters?
