RUGBY at Perth Stadium

Yeah a/man…same Unka…Now weirdly enough coming from Melb, i used to watch the Bullants ( Preston) every sunday in the VFA. Home ground Cramer st!
Alan Joyce was player coach, and many great players ame thorugh the club.
Love me footy and discussing all and sundry about it.
Sadly its a sad day when players can earn $2000 playing in a country league…BUT way less in the second tier comp ( wafl) . A lot of issues in our great game, which get ignored and swept under the carpet.

@Unkatwo , the AFL have much to answer for. They DGAS for any competition other than the AFL.
Oh and great to see you back here.

Im staggered there has been no commentary on the fact our rugby loving Premier has spent $100m of WA taxpayers money on a nrl team apparently everyone in WA wants and brand new facilities for them!!!
Im yet to meet anyone in Perth who actually religiously follows it!

Spot on BH. You can also bet your bottom dollar that it’ll climb well past $100m before they play their first game. V’landys must have compromising photos of Cook to get him to commit $100m+ of taxpayers money whilst the NRL keeps the license and pays bugger all.

Meanwhile the most popular sport in WA struggles to attract funding to provide facility upgrades on premises that have lasted 70 years plus.

We are learning what it’s like to be Rogered.

Cook kept his rugby team deal and Ritas Racetrack very quiet before the election and now they are throwing literally hundreds of millions at these 2 vanity projects the VAST MAJORITY of taxpayers dont want a bar of!
