Perth has their Queens birthday holiday a week earlier than the East coast.

Basically a good excuse to have two consecutive Monday games and not get traditionalists all uptight.

How is this for support.

This bloke has watched live 888 consecutive dogs games:

That's an even bigger achievement when you consider how miserable the dogs are.

wowwweeee tiges (Y)

By all reports, Tigers absolutely destroyed us and we were horrible. Woosha needs to give the team a kinck up the ass. Not good enough. We shouldn't be losing by that much at home to Richmond, no matter how good they played. Lacking fight at the moment. Really missing Waters and Schofield at the moment.

Yeah you guys were pretty average, but it was the best team performance I've seen from us in a long long time. Vlastuin is going to be a fucking star.

What makes not having to leave your couch on a monday night "impressive" :-S

:lol:

Less racist taunts from the crowd ;)

Turns out they can't be heard from a 4-seater.

Royce Hart made a legend of the game:

http://media.smh.com.au/sport/afl-real-footy/royce-hart-now-a-legend-of-the-game-4466062.html

Good, although obviously someone of my age never saw him play live, watching replays and from what my father still tells me he was one of the best he ever saw.

More Monday night footy on the agenda:

West Coast vs Richmond a great success.

What's this talk about the AFL bug-sweeping their offices?

I also hear that a club or two may relocate to Tassie. Is this true. From Melbourne.

RIP tradition. :(

It's for real this time.

An AFL club is offering free tickets:

That's been on the cards for a number of years now. Most of the Melbourne teams are pretty determined to stay put but it could be the only answer for the Demons.

82,639 tonight at the G for Ess vs Carl.

Decent turn out.

Great win against the bluebaggers . Stants and Watson not having great games but proud Of the boys . Joey is going to be a player ,just hope the hype doesn't get to him like it has with watts and ruin him

How sweet that win felt. Jake Carlisle is a superstar

North blow another 30+ point lead. Embarrassing fucking team.

Well done Suns.

My close mate Andy D say they are gonna fold to further financially boost GC$ and GW$.

no way there was 7k at the gws game...3k tops

They made plenty of noise on TV and radio.



Indicates 7,800 about spot on.

Soccer fans probably don't understand how big Australian Football grounds are.
