SMTM, not sure the crowds are as low as the numbers suggest.
There are issues with the way the numbers are compiled.
Not sure the WAFL is in as much danger as some theorists think.
It won’t just disappear all together.
And the Gen Y and next Gen parents,looking to take their kids to the footy,but can’t and WON’T get a look in at Eagles and Dockers Home Games?
Move on Grassy
I MIGHT have a rest if the Football Commission can straighten the ship on this,…
I agree with you DF regarding crowd size something not right with a attendance figures but thats just amateurs at work.
I see the WAFL have finally updated the round one crowd numbers. Total 11,101 with a very good crowd at Bassendean. 3924.

The Football Commission will probably say Swans(amongst others)sent their figures late.
One could say the WAFC AND the Clubs have been handball happy on this matter.
And East Fremantle shouldn’t be immune from this,given they plucked some figures for most of last Season,but haven’t provided any attendances for this Season.
Even a reasonable ball park estimate might suffice here,guys.Just joking here,but give Dougie Walters a call.When people keep coming in,…“one,two,three,…etc”.
Add another 300 from the Colts on Friday Night,who weren’t counted at a locked Turnstile and Outer Gate and you’ll have about 1 500 for the Perth v West Perth Fixture.
Still a disappointing Attendance and illustraties once again,that our Bsndwagon Hoppers from last year,aren’t that really dedicated,z3hen it comes to WAFL Footy!
The only 2 clubs with an average of over 1800 per game in both average & home attendances are SF (2298 - 2650) & SD (2042 - 2643).
SF is understandable being almost undefeated premiers last year & up there again this year but gee us SD fans must be sadists or very loyal, as we are near bottom yet again!

Very Loyal,Sir!
People from other Clubs don’t mind the trip to Bassendean and Fremantle Oval,which helps.

Hope your Footy Manager or CEO is right on the money with Saturday’s Weather.
Coming in at 8,…about 3 Hours after The Final Siren.
Not that the suits at West Coast give a continental who showed up to Le wc v PT today,but if the following didn’t count through the Gate -
Players 46
Coaches. 10
Trainers 12
Others 12
The Attendance at Lathlain would have been about 140 today.
Miserable day I know,but 2 AFL Clubs with a Combined Minimum Membership of 160 000 had this turnout,….
Credit to those that did show up,but Bl**dy Pathetic roll up!

South Fremantle v East Fremantle 5 231(Sport FM source)
Awaiting others -
Come on WAFC!
Give us the Lowdown figure on Sunday’s Game!
Counting players and other extras,250?
140 without 'em?!
Guessed 5000, almost spot on, a bit disappointing tbh…
I reckoned there were 7 or 8 thousand there on Monday,…compared to 140 the day before,…165 000+ Combined Members,…
672
Claremont v eagles reserves
Probably about 30 eagles Supporters there,the rest Tigers.
The missing Tigers must have known something Evil was brewing,…
