There will be nothing left to steal after 2017 when there will be no more football. No more football, no more Markets. Subiaco will turn into a ghost town, you will hear the rusty old signs swinging in the breeze and see tumble weeds rolling down Hay St and Rokeby Rd, BMW's abandoned and thousands of unused latte and mocha cups littering the streets.

DD..from what I'm hearing from locals it's already like that except on footy days..

To be fair BC most of Perth resembles that description these days excl the empty cups. For all the beauty we have here in WA we sure do mundane very well. How Subi will regenerate itself once the footy leaves is a tricky one. Hope it doesn't become another Maylands

Story from my area on Bogundean's border. Heard the neighbour (single lady)yelling at someone in her back yard one evening. Went out to make sure she was ok. A rocket scientist was wandering around her back yard looking for some "tax". He decided to do a quick bolt over her back fence. His problem was that there is about a 4 metre drop into her back neighbour's yard. OWWWWCHHH! Look before you leap old son.
