That opens the way for Brady Grey, Fraser McInness and Andrew Fisher to remain at Perth.

The article also says Peel president Ross Ditchburn wants to end the alignment with Fremantle when their agreement runs out at the end of next year so it looks like it's all going back to the old way pre alignments.

It could be this story being just a beat up.
Have been listening to all the radio news bulletins all day and have heard diddly squat about this story!
Surely if the story had legs, it would be on the news?

True nothing has been officially announced WAG but we all know what is coming. If lists are reduced by 5 that means another 5 top up players WC have to find from ammo's/country/ex AFL/WAFL and it gets more difficult to manage and Simmo has said the match simulation and scratchies with other AFL clubs have worked well. I think that's where this story has grown legs.

In fact I think travel bubbles might become a permanent thing in AFL footy moving forward even if we find a vaccine and unrestricted crowds are allowed to return. It especially makes sense for our two AFL teams.

Fremantle doesn't seem interested in having a team in the WAFL so instead of going to a 9 team competition WAFC needs to reduce the competition to 8 teams by kicking out West Perth and redistributing the zones fairly and evenly across the league to ensure all 8 teams are still fighting for the finals at the pointy end of the season.

Far too many times the season is dead half way through.

Therefore I am concerned there will be some sort of alignment situation. It could end up with 4 clubs taking WCE players and the other 5 clubs including Peel, taking the Fremantle players, if their alignment ends. Surely there won’t be a mixture of players from both AFL clubs playing at the same WAFL club.

Another chance for the not so royals to do the dirty again. Let’s face it, they have history at this sort of thing.

The biggest blight in WAFL football is your abomination of a ground,the sooner they bulldoze it like Richmond Raceway the better.

HAHA

RL...true EF oval ain't pretty...but pretty sure EF oval hasn't blighted the WAFL in ways that EP, by jumping into bed with WCE, have done....from memory RL EP returned for a 2nd slice of the WCE monetary pie....WCE have run rough shod over the WAFL...and EP have assisted WCE more the most....rather have a tainted looking oval, then a tainted reputation mate...one you can repair the other you can't...

Should kick you out of the competition Dirtle

I'm not in debt to VenuesWest and the ATO. I didn't have to beg for mercy. I don't have a close ally at the WAFC.

I have more reasons to be in the wafl competition than West Perth would ever have.

Good to hear from our friend from the land of the white cloud but i'm afraid you've got a very selective memory.Do you recall who got the ball rolling with the alignments???To refresh your memory it was Claremont and South who had full alignments where they had a dozen or so players on a weekly basis,and then the Tigers could'nt wait to ditch it quick enough,when they missed finals and discovered the arrangement wasn't as advantageous as they thought,and we in turn took on the interstate alignment where we had 4 or 5 fringe players and the local listed eagle players were still available to play for their original WAFL clubs so big bloody deal.As the saying goes about ''people in glass houses''shouldn't be throwing stones as your clubs conduct in pursuing a contracted player was absolutely disgraceful,especially when his club made it explicitly clear that they wanted him to honour his contract,so go suck on that ''CUZZY BRO''

What club do you follow Dirtle?...or are you too gutless to reveal this information? you seem to be very scared of the oldest club in the WAFL and one of the oldest sporting clubs in Australia.

Let him go Falcon, the more he posts the more he shows his ignorance and disdain for our historic competition. La Hincha has nailed it, West perth is part of the WAFL DNA but we all love to hate you

"go suck on that Cuzzy Bro?....LOL obviously you are from South Auckland RL....us good Christchurch folk are more refined then that mate....touch wood EF don't do an East Perth then RL and disgrace themselves with such dodgy behaviour a second time round...
