And to think early West Coast struggled so much over its first three seasons it’s what inspired the SANFL to,

1) wait until 1993/4 before revisiting the prospect of a local license (under the assumption the abortive national competition would fall over);

2) and when their hand was forced it caused them to go polar opposite to the generic WA-experience with branding = the Red, Blue and Gold Adelaide Croweating Crows Who Drink FUIC, Eat Fruchocs & Go Into Town

Go Into Town

[knowing chuckle]

 

[chiwigi]

Where's the ridiculous helmet for West Coast? They're missing out on looking as embarrassed as the crow

Can you post the Crow please? I can’t see it.

In their Toyota Camrys, which've just about brought up their first 100km by now.

The best thing the SANFL could do is concentrate on becoming a development league & a great nursery for young talent.

Of course this will never happen because all they care about is chasing some 2nd best comp in the country rubbish & encourage flooding the league with AFL discards.

Are their crowds declining at all? Haven't really seen any stats on it. They can't be in all that greater financial shape.

I don't know to me it just looks like the last remnants of the jurassic period that go to SANFL games.

Their crowd #'s are as rubbery as the crows AO figures. Was at Richmond Oval a few years back when we played Westies.

Did a eyeball count of roughly 600 tops, next day's paper had 1550 there. Our crowds are nothing to brag about either.

Scrap Reserves and turn it into U21 with 2/3 exceptions (what its close to now but make it official)

I reckon local footy (HFL/GSFL) is a better afternoon out in terms of atmosphere

Please mum, not again

 

[NoddyHolder]

Lol. The crow's got boobs

 

[Duckimus Prime]

Well its probably based on their not shit team.

 

[bomberclifford]

Why are they wearing helmets?

I think ours is the only one that isn't. Little blue collar club from Alberton can't afford it.

 

[VineValerian]

Port are tough.
We don't need 'em.

Some much wrong in this
The walk away
The little effort to be knocked down
Would be a turnover in reg match
Tough guys though…

 

[Schulzenfest]

Well done big tough guy Zurhaar, do that in a real game and you'd give away a free kick and cost your team one of the few goals they'll kick next year. It'll impress the mouthbreathers who support your club and spend their time online abusing a teenager and defending a domestic abuser though.

 

[edgie]

Holy ****

Imagine the club celebrating a guy doing an illegal high contact on a team mate and turning his back walking away as he's on the the ground, not even interested in helping him up.

Actually disgusting

May north suck for a bit longer

Apart from the appalling sportsmanship by not checking if his fellow teammate was ok, that's a free kick every day of the week & likely a fine by the AFL Tribunal.

I heard the kokmeister wanted the circumcised version of helmet.

Ours looks like Gay Tron.
