    I wasnt planning on going myself due to prices of the tickets which i thought were a joke (opposition, venue etc) but a mate had a spare ticket, we too moved to better seats after we got into the ground. I was unaware tat the WAFC made the $12.50 on every ticket plus money on watever is spent on food and drink

    Yep - I suspect that the real reason the rectangular stadium is off the agenda is that the WAFC is creaming it out of us - and giving nothing in return - they won't move to the 60,000 one because they will be finically disadvantaged - i.e. Subi is making a healthy profit

    If they want better crowds then they should give Perth a decent test match. Nothing to do with the shape of the stadium.

    A disgrace for mine. $70 ticket. Only 20,000 and you still had to line up for food and drinks, plus they decided not to open Gate 9 which we were supposed to enter.

    I will not be going to any more Tests at Subi Oval unless of course I get lucky and am invited to a box.

    Again, an absolute disgrace.

    another very dissappointed fan here

    I was embarrased by the state of the ground - I didn't know the curator at Subi is either a complete lazy twat or he isn't allowed to water the grass in the month of June.

    When you paint out the 50m signs, why not use a colour a little closer to the grass ... you haven't had the oval that green EVER!

    $hit performance by the Wallabies considering who they were playing.

    pi$$ed off Lote got MOTM, what a joke!!

    I got drunk afterwards and got very happy!

    I wouldnt have gone to game except i got a job for the night. When 13 of us enter he areana with our all areas pass we were amazed by the crappy state of the ground! at 430 the footy goals were still up and the line painting had only just started.

    But coz of my positioning [5ms away from the play on the halfway line] it was the test iv seen live.

    however during the eveing i learned:
    That the coin toss is done in the change rooms then 15mins later they re-inact it on the field and over the headsets they annouced MOTM at about the 55thmin mark.
    And that MC[the chick] was as thick as bricks!

    I just heard some ABC sports commentator on Country radio say it was dissapointing to see such a small crowd and it would have been better played at Members Equity where the crowd of 7 or 8000 would not have looked as sparce......jeeezzzz....and these people are being PAID.....

    Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
