Haven't been to an AFL eagles match in probably 15 years either.

Really, and why is that? You have followed two WAFL teams and haven't seen either for 15 years, you are a weagle supporter who hasn't seen them in 'probably' 15 years.
So I find it really intriguing that you can't wait to pop down to 'a local WAFL ground' to watch their reserves side.
By the way, will you support Subi or West Perth first? Or will you be throwing your erstwhile, stoic and considered support behind the weagle reserves?

Heavily invested in junior and amateur football which usually dictates my weekends. Grass Roots football is more than enough for me.
However, it would be really easy to stroll down to the arena joondalup to watch the eagles Wafl side which now includes ex juniors I have watched and ammo players I have watched.

The eagles brand is massive, fans will watch regardless.

Why would it be easier to 'stroll' down now to the Arena, ex juniors you have watched? Ex ammos you have watched?
Says it all, unholytugbboat , complete and utter plonker.

So u don't think there will be much interest in an eagles team the general public in the Wafl?

One of the biggest brands in Australian football is now playing in the WAFL.

This shit ain't rocket science. 60'000 + members.

No I actually don't. Front running supporters at the best of times, let alone their second side playing in a lower comp without home games and not able to qualify for finals.

Guess we will see soon enough.

Shouldn't be hard to pick you out up at Joondy then. You'll be the one on the outer wearing your Eagles kit. Lol

He might be wearing his West Perth shorts and socks, matching them up with his Subiaco jumper/beanie (complete with pompom on top) waving his weagle flag.

Or maybe, like the last time I went to an eagles match, I will be volunteering to fundraise money for a footballer I didn't know who had just become a quadriplegic......
