The kid would have benefitted greatly from playing finals and enhanced his case in the draft. Just shows that junior development and opportunities for locals is the last thing on their minds.

Fremantle are probably very keen to draft him and therefore would rather keep him away from the eyes of talent scouts

TOO he would well and truly be on the radar of many clubs after the 18's carnival and his league appearances with Peelmantle. They will know all they need to know, playing finals would have been the icing on the cake and maybe a good finals series would have upped his price but Freo would want to minimize that. All they are about is to get some more silverware even if it for their reserves.

JT has written some great articles. To all those who don't like the alignment, please share the attachment around!

Ironic to think Subi v the AFL alignment in the last ever game at Subi Oval....trying to bite the hand which has fed and fatten them over the past 20 odd years.......good luck to both sides.....for the WAFL to move forward which result is truly the right result needed for this to happen?

Freezin with all due respect to the legitimate WAFL supporters involved in the GF next year either result is reprehensible. If Peelmantle win then it is a damning indictment on the host club alignment. Equally, if Subiaco win it then we have a club that has played in 8 of the last 11 GFs. A team that lost one qualifying game and lost to Peelmantle in a final. This from a club that to paraphrase Subiaco supported has been decimated by injuries throughout the season.

Perhaps the best result for the integrity and future of the WAFL is for fewer than 10,000 turn up and Peelmantle win by 12+ goals.

Congrats to SF who were the legitimate WAFL Premiers in 2017 beating SD in the REAL WAFL GF last weekend.
