At Subiaco there are several various ways you can make your way to Subi and public transport is still an option. As long as they build a new one at Kitchener Park and don't try to refurbish the existing stadium I think that is looking like a better option and perhaps sink the railway line back a bit further so we can build a decent size stadium of around 70 000 plus.

Didn't intend this to become a stadium debate but what the hell it is still relevant.

Subi cannot handle a crowd of 40k now, how on earth is it going to handle 70k+ in the future ffs??? Built it at Burswood asap!

I reckon fark em, we both know Bassendean is our prefered venue!

It certainly is at the end of the day mate ..I might see you there for the AGM on Thursday night if your going?

yeah redevlop a suburban ground with Crap access. Dare we suggest opening Perth up and incoroprate a casino, and whatever on the banks of the river, hell we could even knock down glouster park and open that up.....oppps nah that would upset the 3 people that go the trots every week. I have had personal contact with Mr Mcgowan on numerous occassions... NOT A NICE MAN AT ALL.

Unka I can tell you from first hand experience that more people attend the trots on a regular Friday night in summer at GP here than go to Peel, Claremont & a couple of other WAFL clubs games & for that matter than attend Ascot on a Saturday as well.

ill be voting labour

Well Swandog, that floored me!!

I'll be voting labor as well

I havent voted for Labor for years but they will get my vote. Barnett is a liar and a slimy bastard who seems to keep pointing the Federal government whenever he feels the need. It is a state issue. The man makes me sick. The Julia Gillard of state politics
He is burning our money. But of course he will get in as the Nationals are bleeding him and US dry with the Royalty for regions a royalty that is wasting up to 600 million. Thats Australia but vote where your heart tells you people

I think it'll be closer than you think. Last time Barnett won the seemingly unwinnable - anything is possible.

I think as poll day gets closer people more people will vote against Barnett when they compare whats on the table.

As for the stadium - I think we should all be concerned that the professionally prepared Langoulant Report which said that Kitchener Park (ie not a Subi upgrade - a total rebuild) was a better option but has been totally ignored by the current government and the bottom option on the report has been taken up instead. Why? Why does arrogant Colin think he knows better than a professional who weighed up all considerations? This Packer thing can be the only conclusion one can draw from this.
