So the World Stepped up a cog or two.So did Sri Lanka against our Pathetic mob of schoolboys masquerading as Test Cricketers,,but that's for another arguement.

Must be a Perth thing, accepting mediocrity,,,,glad the media is not like that, it tax payers money after all,

Must be a South Freo thing.Whining when things don't go your own way.Mind you,you lot are a bit slack in recent years.When's the last time you lot threw a Billiard Ball at the opposition?

Besides,the AUSTRALIAN Test Cricket Team(?))deserve the Biggest Kick up the Arse right now.Why are you so silent there?It us our Number 1 National Sports Team Afterall. Not after the crap cricket they dished up lately!

They run on a shoestring compared to AOC Snouts in trough

Kitty Cat on $500k a year and Coates has chewed through about $3 Mill that's before we get to the other $387 Million of tax payers hard earned spent on this years underachievers that and is an all time record spend on any O team!

Seems the more we spend the less we get.

USA elite sport is all funded in the mane through Private Scholarships at Colleges..

UK use a Lottery.

How much tax payers dough does WAFC chew up?

Since you seem to be privy to all the financials could you please outline how much of the $387 million the Men's hockey received?

Olympic Hockey Costs:

$23,868,476.00 In total
$745,890.00 Per Team Member ( which was higher than Athletics )

You turn now and I'm still waiting on the Tax Payer Funding for the WAFC ( not including the burden the tax payer had to carry to subsidise the past ABC coverage they are now relieved of )

The question specificslly was the Men's Hockey team. But I will accept that it is both the men's and women's teams. Please explain how you determined the amount per member and over what time period? Secondly, I assume you have factored in such things as coaches, trainers, physios etc? I presume you have also taken into account IT costs, equipment costs, travel costs, etc. etc?
