Obviously Subiaco supporters will be going to the WAFL Grand Final, but what about the neutral supporters?

Personally I won't be going to the WAFL Grand Final.

Quite sad that 90% of the neutral posters on here would seem to be not going. Personally I go every year and have done for years. A disaster looming with 60% faux peel docker supporters out of about 8-9000. Oh well. I'll do my bit.

Hopefully some west coast supporters get behind subi against a common enemy.

Singha it is one of the few ways the WAFL supporters can voice their displeasure. I noticed that the survey has closed ALREADY. What a joke. The WAFC initiate a review of WA football out of season. The decisions are going to be made in the first quarter of 2017. That presumably means that the decisions LOGICALLY would not impact the 2017.

One would have thought that if you dinkum about finding out what people thought you would have:

(i) had an extended period for completing the survey;
(ii) provide the opportunity for those WHO ACTUALLY ATTEND WAFL games to be surveyed face-to-face.

Of course the above is predicated on the fact that the WAFC is interested in what people think and that patently is not what the WAFC is interested in.

To preempt the likes of Freezin wondering what my comments have to do with the topic, there obviously was an implication that posters could articulate the reasons why they were attending or not attending the WAFL GF.

If I mught ask that the posts are reasonable I will endeeavour to send a link to this topic to the powers that be at the WAFC; if they take the time to read it they might get some understanding about the feeling out in the WAFL Community.

I will be there, usually go every year. Don't think there will be a big crowd, due to the two teams playing and the dwindling support that drops off each season in the WAFL.

One thing that I do think that contributes to poor crowds at WAFL games each season is the fact that it is mainly older supporters that support the competition. Eventually these supporters are no longer with us. Add to this that the younger generation relate to the AFL more than they do the WAFL and this does not help.

The last GF I went to Perth colts lost to SD on a freezing cold day. I think Subi (surprise surprise) defeated SD. I think NicNat played in that game, remember seeing him chase down Phil Read and body slamming him. Never been since.

Wild horses couldn't drag me to this one.

Not going, no interest.

Not even to watch your colts or reserves Tiger of Old?

No I don't live in Perth and only make the journey for a league game.
If I lived in Perth I would go but I would probably leave after the reserves

Fair enough TOO. I think you should win the colts but I reckon the Royals will pip you in the reserves.
