TOPIC:

I just had a look at the outs for FART in todays paper for guys playing for Freo and its got me stuffed how we beat them last week with the likes of SOS, De Boer, Alex Pearce, Clarke x 2, Bennell, Weller and Crozier all coming out. That was probably our best win during the regular season for many years.

The Peel win felt like a Premiership

Fat???

I can't see it

mate ..to be perfectly honest...given the way he plays I reckon he needs a bit of beef otherwise he'll come off second best more times than not. I can hardly wait to see fear in the eyes of jerker players next week...they'll be shitting bricks

Mate went to south Adelaide v Glenelg today. Told me they had 9000. Obviously that's not official

Good grief Singha, about 9,000 there for the match? Here, we only dream of attendance figures of that for 1 game. The Sanfl appears to always have had better crowd figures than the Wafl for quite some time.

Smallest GF crowd since they started , if the rumours are true and AFL starts GF in 2017 , it will be cactus.

Actually quite a good crowd considering the oppressive conditions and the fact that these games are now telecast on 7. Great day at the footy and very well marketed by the club. AFL good Friday will have a real effect in future games


Need to consider perhaps having a WP or Swans opponent for future good Friday games and perhaps starting the game a little later.
Noticable the fewer number of EP supporters in recent years, plenty of empty blue seats in the EP members area and no longer the East Perth, East Perth chant from the members area, especially when they had that stirring come back. Seems the alignment is starting to bite.

Given its a cotenant game with both clubhouses hosting a home gane, if you cant get a big crowd there v air your pushing it uphill.

Gf was always going to be a novelty for a year or two after that it will wear off as people have family commitments.

It was a subi home game.Good reason to watch it on tv. Wich teams with no alignment are getting bigger crowds.
