TOPIC:

I see the game has been moved to East Freo Oval kicking off at 12:10 due to the poor state of Leederville.  These AFL reserve teams due get a bit precious about their players as if it was good enough for Subi and Claremont to tough it out the other week if should be ok for the WanCERs and FART as well.

Apparently wet conditions forecasted for the footy on game day with a prediction of 10 mms. From what I hear, probably a good idea moving this match to East Fremantle Oval. Then the question needs asking why play footy at Leederville at all if the surface is not up to scratch?
That aside, hoping Subiaco prevail in this match and can bag the 4 points.

The WAFC apparently have Leederville as the preferred GF venue so I dont think any games will be played there and training moved as well for the rest of the season, so the ground will get 8 or 9 weeks with no use to get it up to scratch. Vincent Council are supposedly keen to host it and do what they can to help get the surface up, but we need some dry fine weather pretty soon or it wont happen.

Bloke on wafl world reckons the council want subi and East Perth out of leederville. Hope no truth in that.

That would be of no surprise...... Heard a story years ago (and I'm sure others also heard) there was strong rumblings from the vincent town council on that very subject.

No Braut, Bailey Matera or Borchet. Fielding a full strength team these days is just about impossible. With everyone who is missing, I don't think this team will cause too many problems for any other team except WCER.  Hopefully Greg Clark does the right thing and pretends he pings his hammy during the warm up.  Subi by 24 points.

Great to see Maxy back, not surprised Braut is having a rest, I dont think he's been near 100% the last few games, give him a decent rest and ready for a big pre season and a 2023. Matera Jnr has done little so lets someone else have a run. Borch might just be a rest or Covid? Good to see South get some more time and also Morgan.
5 games left including this one and 3 are winnable v WCER, Perth & maybe EP. cant see us getting anywhere near SF & Joondy.
Greg Clark is listed as an emergency for the toasters, what does he have to do to get a game with that insipid mob!!
 

No Delahunty… have we seen the last of the great man?

Geez what a rabble wc are, they are not even trying. Lucky we are playing them any other team would kill us. We are a good reserves side at best. Unfortunately I think we are in for a long stint in the bottom half of the ladder. We probably have 10 players up to league standard, we need about 8-10 very good recruits and I doubt that is going to happen. There is actually more seagulls here than people!

The arrogance of this club is laughable. Get a real coach for starters. They have done a good job in recent years in developing our juniors, but what’s the point, all the good ones get snapped up by the afl clubs. Get some real players. Fuck wasting time and money on this shit been there done that in the late 70s early 80’s. I don’t want or expect to win it every year but at least be competitive every year like sydney and geelong etc
