I would have thought that bloke might have had some idea given his career in the VFA league , the Vicco Sunday type league

Ahhhhh shizz maybe that's where it is all headed .... a WAFL sunday comp for old blokes with a "Playstation like 37 like mark like V like yewwww" under 16 comp on the Saturdays

BH there were stories about WP, Claremont, East Fremantle, top 50 players, WAFC looking at Freo oval and story on Krakouer. The previous week had a WAFL season liftout and stories on the WAFL.
Absolutely nothing in the Sunday Times on the WAFL a week out.

The West journos have been quick to get on their horse and say they are very fair and balanced today with 5 pages of WAFL. Don't mention it is a one off. Plus I am still searching for the Subiaco story in todays paper or what we had to say at the season launch. Wish we had the coverage that West Perth have had this summer.

Barney if you're interested there is an article on the WAFL.com.au site on Subi. Any East Freo supporters, today there is one on your club. Claremont, Swans and South have also cracked a mention lately on that site.

Why are people on here blaming the WAFC, ? 990 have made it clear the sponsors have pulled out and they can't fund it anymore, this is a decision of private business, it's not the WAFC sole responsibility to prop up uneconomical ventures, the fact is the coverage has failed to attract a sponsor, if the product was in demand they would have no trouble, but no body has come forward, just like they never came forward with the ch 9 coverage, the WAFC , is already propping up the tax payer subsidised ABC coverage where does it end, it seems to me that some on here just want the hand out mentality to exist hand in hand with the WAFL, perhaps this is more of a sign that the product is not financially viable on its own.

Their sole responsibility seems to have been propping that Mandurah rubbish mate ..... surely the WAFC must be making this league an attractive proposition Baz that is their charter isn't it ????

It would appear that the dickheads that are in control of the WAFL have an agenda that they aren't sharing. Their main aim seems to be to destroy the comp, but what comes next? Hopefully they'll lose their jobs in the 'new regime'. Let's face it, they are not really rocket scientists!!!

The bottom line is media will only cover stuff the enough people will watch or listen too, and if enough people watch , sponsors will pay to support it,, if not they walk away,

So these sponsors must think it's being run by infidels and not worthy of having their names on it - even with two "teams" chockas with AFL mugs mate ????

I mean there's no promotion , no advertising , no support - no nothing except for PT & EP

Who is the third station BH? I know of Radio Fremantle and 990.

East Fremantle v West Perth broadcast by 6IX Digital
Peel Thunder v East Perth broadcast by ABC TV
Perth v Claremont broadcast by 720 6WF ABC Radio
Subiaco v South Fremantle broadcast by 720 6WF ABC Radio

Subiaco came starts at 4:05pm so I would say there broadcast would kick off half way through the second quarter as soon as the Perth game finishes.
