Be sure to throw a bit in DD.

I could see what change I've got left in my travel wallet. Do you take pesos, thai baht, ringgits and rupiah?

Then again I might want to keep those for sentimental reasons to reflect on another time.

Yep, you need something to reflect on. After all, I’m guessing you may not have been born, or would have been very young when Perth had their last taste of glory!!!

Call it good will Cesspit on EF behalf....I guess EF folk way back in 1907 knew Perth would win fark all flags in the future...how right they were....winning a flag on a protest....sums up the Perth Footy club to a tee....

why wouldnt of perth officials & co complain at half time & the central umpire & boundary umpires just cancel out the goal....simple
but no perth complain after they lose & take it to a kangaroo court where influential perth people ultimately have perth handed the flag

yet in the 1st semi perth v sf this happened

In Perth’s win over South Fremantle in the first semi-final, South Fremantle lodged a protest against Perth claiming that a goal had been scored by one of their players, but it had been called touched by the central umpire. Had the goal been counted they would have won by a point and faced East Fremantle in a derby Grand Final.

South Fremantle intended to call a number of witnesses from the crowd, but The Appeal Board refused the request stating that they couldn’t hear any outside witnesses.

South Fremantle’s protest was dismissed on Friday, September 20.

11 days later Perth would be allowed to present 47 witnesses including a number of their members and fans who were on the outer.

now that is a farce

Is this the most irrelevant and petty thread in the history of Oz Footy?

That is an amazing story whether you like it or not.

the truth sometimes hurts doesnt it....well for some anyway
