He's a pretty honest bloke,who doesn't look through Rose coloured glasses with Peel.

Now what?

Well someone about as high up as you can get at Subi told me the opposite Grassy, so one of these blokes is not telling the truth

As high up as you can get at Subi...hemmmm, me thinks you must be talking about the brown paper bag man Singha. A man whose word I've learnt Is not completely trustworthy in the world outside of footy but in this instance I would see no reason to disbelieve if what you say is true. The fact that the 3 emergencies for the Freo game were permitted to play yesterday is a bloody disgrace...what's the old saying? If it looks, tastes of and smells like poop it most likely is poop!!!

There is only one thing that this enforces

Let AFL have aligned clubs or be involved in your Second Tier competition like this, and it comprimises your competition. This would happen be it aligned Clubs, Or AFL Reserves sides

Well done WAFC !!!!!

Reading the article, the 3 Emg from Dockers playing has peed him off.

Peel being allowed to play those three Fremantle emergencies is a disgrace. This competition is a disgrace. I've had enough. Even if the alignment is ended and the two AFL reserves teams join an AFL reserves competition, I actually think the damage has been done and will be irreparable unless there are massive changes made to the structure of football in this state. A once proud, century-plus competition has gone one step too far. If Subi had a star player coming back from injury who didn't quite pass the fitness test on the Saturday, would he have been allowed to suit up on Sunday? I think we all know the answer to that one. An historical cultural icon in this state, namely the WAFL, has been destroyed. Sad. Very sad.

Can anyone confirm that the Subi Colts coach took his ruckman off at h/t because of the shifting surface in the centre square for the rest of the game as he was coming off a knee injury, that's what I've heard.

No sympathy from me $ubi, welcome to the world of being bent over!!!

not true grassy...the Subi players were all suited up and going through warm-ups at the tech school end right up until they were told the game wasn't going ahead at 2pm...Schofield was out there with them so they were certainly wanting it to go ahead.

Did you see Peter's question?

There's an Awfull lot of claims and counter claims about,right now.

Anyone see those 3 Docker supporters defend the situation to the nth degree after the Final Siren?

Do they actually support Peel,or were they 3 WAFC Stooges planted there to create a stir?

Yep plenty of claims people are going to believe whatever suits their narrative.

yes I saw PN's question but don't know the answer. If it was the case then I'd think the Chunder had a fair argument given stress, wear and tear on joints is significantly greater at league level than colts but as I said, I don't know it to be true or otherwise.

Not true.

Ashton Williamson played the whole game. Ended with 17 disposals and 27 hit outs. I watched the entire game.
