Today's crowd with both our Afl sides playing.One in the early afternoon and one in the early evening.That's as good as we can hope for about 1300 to 1500 hundred.35 years ago 10 to 12 thousand would of attended this match..

It seems no-one is worried about the dwindling Wafl crowd numbers! Which really saddens me.

You had a big cry when the three cricketers got done for ball tampering , you support a freaking mob of cheats., don't worry about Peel $ubi are the biggest problem for the WAFL and have been for years.

WAG one can only surmise that G Taylor must be on a bonus to DESTROY the WAFL because EVERY decision made by him has a detrimental impact on the WAFL. Any Swans' or neutral fan at Leederviile today would have gone home wondering why one would bother to turn up to watch such a completely one-sided competition and the biggest joke of all is the Subaco supporters who have the gall and temerity to complain about the advantage "Peel" have had in the pat two WAFL GFs.

Get in there behind them Bazza. At least you still have a club to support.

WAG if our crowds could double to average around 3,000 a game.That would make the WAFC think twise about shafting the Wafl.

Perhaps the WAFL should start handicapping Subi - 15 players on the ground at a time. And thereby drag the whole competition down to the level of mediocrity exhibited by Perth over the past 20 years.

Thank god the commonwealth games have been on last couple of weeks, actually something interesting to watch...

The only way there will be more than 10,000 at the 2018 WAFL GF is if one of the traditional clubs somehow manages to make it v's $ubiaco.

WAFL RIP
