Not true, Winger. I was only in there for a couple of minutes and ran into both Larry Kickett and Ken McAullay. Sure there would have been a few other Royals in there, too.

Have seen a few EP fans talk about it being 1000 EP supporters and only 400 from WP. I was at the game and there didn't seem to be that sort of discrepancy to me. I would have thought it was 50-50... though WP should expect to have more like 60-40 at their home ground.

BTW, what is it with the bunch of Royals supporters who stand at the northern end of the grandstand and hurl abuse at the people in the stand all day? WTF is the point of that? Admittedly, it wasn't the whole group of 30-ish, but a handful of them just wouldn't let up. Only one bloke even fired back at them and that was after copping abuse for three quarters.

Wouldnt surprise me Winger, we sold out. Noddy and Kickett dont hold official positions at the club but still great to hear they were at the game

How many people is "sold out" for the lunch, Astro?

not surprised bt Vlahos, I only tolerate cos he is related to the Bellos family.

Sold out meaning EPFC sold out to WCE, you cannt deny that!

lol. No, I certainly don't deny that! I thought you were talking about the lunch being sold out!

Interesting Match review panel tonight.

No EP players even as previously said saw a couple of elbows to the head of WP players where one actually came off. In fairness though the umpires might of been in the wrong position. At least EP didnt start their usual Melee even though they did try it once but diffused by the umpires and I would say the WP players just walked away?

Have chucked in the media for the next round as well.As usual click on image for larger pic.. EP V CLA ABC GAME

I don't see how I'm a bad loser I have paid credit to the best team winning and went close to predicting the margin before the game. No issues from my end you always take your losses on the chin in my book. I made reference to an issue when someone had the temerity to say Karma had come back to haunt Jared Oakley Nicholls. I thought it my obligation and my right to point out this was a legitimate accusation of racial abuse. The young player Manning admitted his guilt and remorse. How can anyone of sound reasoning justify these comments. I would say racism is alive a well in the WAFL.

naïve - gullible - illegitimate - an apology for misunderstanding is not usually referred to as an admission of guilt or remorse???
Yes racism is sadly alive and the street is driven both ways -
