don't know what the big deal was about

They still going on about that?

[Ecky]

A couple of observations:

1. The 2nd word they put on the graphics is 'Septemeber'. They are so enchanted with their great work on the ground that they left the proof-reading to a Braille Institute kid on work experience?

2. Sems to be rather an OSH issue with folk having to remove and replace effing great goal posts in poor light.

Now this was interesting:

* 23,000 meals were served
* 35,000 litres of beverage was consumed

23000 soggy cold pies and not a single proper glass of beer

[Happy]

i think the beverage figures are wrong.. should have been 35 beverages were consumed

i think the beverage figures are wrong.. should have been 35 beverages were consumed

Are you saying that if the stuff they serve we're concentrated 1000 liters would make a glass of real beer?



Generous!

I had a good share of the figure, sure, its midstrength rum, but its still bundy at the game, and that makes me happy.

The whinging came from the AFL not the WAFC, who I'm sure were more than happy to have their coffers filled with some Rugby cash

Eagles hurt by WAFC: Demetriou

AFL boss Andrew Demetriou declared today West Coast and Hawthorn had been most disadvantaged in the finals series.

The AFL chief executive, quoted on the AFL's website, blasted the WA Football Commission, saying it is incomprehensible that a rugby union Test in Perth was allowed to compromise the earlier weeks of the finals series.

He said the WAFC had been left in no doubt about the AFL's dissatisfaction with a cross-code scheduling fix on the opening weekend of the AFL finals series.

An Australia-South Africa rugby union Test at Patersons Stadium on the Saturday meant West Coast had to host North Melbourne on a Sunday then back up six days later to face Collingwood.

"It compromises our finals, the integrity of the finals. It's incomprehensible to us and we've made the point, that the Western Australian Football Commission could book a rugby union Test in September," Demetriou said.

"AFL football is the biggest tenant at Subiaco, it's helped build that ground.

"We are entitled, after teams play off all year, to know that the ground is exclusively used for AFL football.

"We've made that point clear, we don't anticipate it happening again."
