I tell you who did do the heavy lifting was the Qld Gov they went hard for it.

Unlike McGowan who was totally disinterested.,

I disagree Baz. Mac G was interested, but under our terms and bloody good on him. Last thing we need is a bunch of slobbering sicktorians spreading their disease with us.

58, McGowan could save one of Bazzas family members from drowning and Baz still would find a way to blame him

Although Ihe was half hearted about the whole thing, I don't really totally blame him, more the VFL (AFL). In saying that, think of all the people that would of been employed GF Day in Perth ! Massive opportunity lost.

Not really that massive an opportunity lost, wouldn’t have been any bigger really than a normal Eagles home game. WAs pubs would be busy on grand final day anyway whether it’s at Optus or Gabba, stadium staff miss out on a days work that’s about all though isn’t it.

It was the Stadium Staff I was talking about, obviously you dont give a toss. Works Work at the moment, every job counts.

You said massive opportunity. I disagree that it is defined as a massive opportunity. Especially considering the potential opportunity cost.

According to the google site AFL did contribute, the anount it did was not disclosed

Option 1 soften the WA borders and have the GF here

Option 2 Keep the hard borders.

Can only pick ONE option

More die from car accidents than covid in WA, i think we should ban high speed cars and only be allowed to drive at certain times so as to avoid more deaths.

No worries Southy.
Updated the afl contributed approx $10 million to Giants Stadium upgrade and approx $4 million to Kardinia Park Geelong as well.
The afl's "unofficial stance" was they only contribute to ground/stand upgrades.

No Southy the AFL did contribute but we just don't know how much.

yeah can't recall the amount but it would have come with the price tag of influence mate
