this would be great for EP.

if or when this happens, the eagles will likely align with Perth. Sorry to Perth fans but i am looking forward to the day this happens. by this stage EP will pocket over $2million and maybe get our club back. By then i dont even care if we finish last, at least we will have our bloodlines back.

my only fear is EP move to Lathlain to accomodate WCE. nothing would suprise me but i hope the eagles just align with perth and leave us alone. would rather have seen Perth get the setup in the first place.

Will this mean Perth will leave Lathlain, surelyit will as Leederville will be vacated by the former Royals.

I dont think Lathlain is really any great loss to WAFL, also Perth will make money at the bar having games every week at Leederville.

Or will Perth move to the WACA as they did in the late 80's?

i think and would hope the eagles align with Perth and continue together out of Lathlain.

and EP go it alone again as normal at leederville sharing with Subi.

but there are many senarios to this. who knows what will happen. one thing we do know is there are plans for a monumental upgrade at lathlain, and i dont see perth going anywhere.

I cant see the EP host deal being undone now.

So what your saying is that EP Perth and the eagles will all share Latho.

I just cant see that working you wont get room or space for all the training requirements for a AFL squad and two clubs with three grades.

Perth will have to leave - unless of course they become the Perth Eagles.

They are building another oval for training purposes on the current Roberts Rd carpark behind Lathlain Park so it wont be a problem!

Shame about the Carpark going. Always found this very convenient. Oh well the council (if they still have one) will be happy a few more parking infringements.
Its ok as long as the Eagles are happy

Gee the Carpark was the only good thing about Lathlain shame that is going.
