WTF!!

Growler can you please explain your above comments.

Considering the fact that none of them attend games except for the one team they sponsor - no it isn't unexpected or unusual Growls

Christ even Ch7 commentators struggle with their Quiz questions about local players during the telecasts for that matter

Unless it's AFL related forget anything grassroots - for me Readings is hopeless mostly we would be better off with Percy Johnson doing the calling at least he'd know the local scene

Easy
If you actually go to the write ups on the online west you'll get a better representation of what Im referring to but......

West Perth have entrenched themselves in the top five and are on track for a second chance in the finals after producing yet another comeback win this season.

The Falcons were down 25 points to Claremont in the first half at HBF Arena today but played the better football after the long break to win by 10 points.

The Tigers were kept to just three behinds in the last term while the home team slammed on 5.4 to win 13.12 (90) to 12.8 (80).



and that's the extent of the journalistic endevour?????
You will not if you take a trip to the service the other teams get a reasonable write up of the days play - efforts etc etc.....
Maybe it me - But I consider that a pretty light on effort for those that did not attend or wanted a view from the Sports writers generally

Wait till the finals start with the budgies and shockers sitting 1 and 2 the local media will go into a dead set frenzy its going to be hard to take, you will be lucky to see a WAFL score come September.

thank fark im heading OS!

Growler. In this mornings paper the report was a third of a page and all about West Perth and bugger all about Claremont. They interviewed Blackie and praised the efforts of Keitel / Lychee with stats. I was surprised with the report. The online report must have been an early issue.??????????????????.

Absolute disgrace. These so called experts no nothing. It's actually an embarassment when they do quizzes that even the commentators don't know. Who puts them up? At least the channel nine cricket team get most of their quiz questions right. Reddings tries his best but it is still sub standard.
