Bazza I don't understand why you are trying to delude yourself. In the WAFL there is only one club, Subiaco, that has won more wooden spoons than Swans. We will continue to support our club.

By the way for those old enough to remember the memorable game at Freo Oval when pre-Eagles' days a full-strength South Freo was being beaten so badly by Swans that your coach sent your team out at half-time. Do you have as fond a memory of that match as we do Bazza?

I remember the historic arse wipping you got this year bud, btw have you conceded your getting the spoon this year? Delusion appears to be yours the swans army has evaporated.

Do you remember the match I am talking about? No I haven't conceded that we will win the wooden spoon.

I remember the 1980 GF , do you remember that?

Bazza I can also remember the 1975 preliminary final; do you remember the 1975 Grand Final? I also believe that if we had won the 1980 GF I don't think we would have won our hat trick of 3 GFs in 1982, 83 and 84.

Bazza in case one needs to state the obvious for you, alas I suspect it needs to be stated, anyone who has supported Swans for a period is well aware that we have had some very lean years. We understand that and we embrace fully our history. Personally, I would like to be able to expunge the Peter Wilson era at Swans but one can't do that. Further I can remember a Colts' match against Subiaco where we didn't kick a goal for the whole match or a match against Claremont in the Colts when Tony Micale was coached; as a footnote to that game the guy who kicked our only two goals was dropped for the following game.

So Bazza keep banging on about the match earlier this year; it is literally water of a duck's back.

TOSG TOSG TOSG how close but oh so far away. If you are going to presume to correct on'es grammar; would it be too much to ask that you get it right? Surely there is some ownership involved in the duck and its back. Given that: surely it should be "off a duck's back"? Perhaps even, given that there is more that one duck, though it is a biological marvel that apparently we don't have backs nor necks, it should be "off ducks' backs"

Maybe stop trying to impress us with big words and concentrate on getting the little ones correct.

TOSG you are not only deluding yourself with respect to the size of the supporter base of Subiaco, you are also deluding yourself if you think I am trying to impress you.

To get back specifically to the topic, the WAFL attendances have fallen through the floor in the past two seasons mainly because of the host club alignment and the perceived/real financial advantage of Subiaco, exacerbated by the WAFC's complete lack of interest in maintaining the integrity of the WAFL competition, has led to the decision by many, many disenchanted WAFL supporters that it is not worth following such a flawed competition.

Exactly.
So much so in fact, current attendances for the qualifying games are minus 14.3 percent to the corresponding time of last season. If that is not sounding alarm bells ringing, not sure what will?
