Indian pacific - a company funded by noteholders - the noteholders financed the creation of west coast. my dad and mum are noteholders.

When wafc bought indian pacific the noteholders were given guaranteed access to finals and gf’s in return for surrendering the notes.

The eagles were created by a groundswell of parochial west aussies who put their money where their mouths were

So does a note holder have any voting rights ?

Is that an argument ?
Your team mate back there tried to insinuate that numbers dropped off in 2010.

They didnt - attendance does as there are a lot of country members - and travelling 800km return tends to not look so appealing in a s**t year.

But we sold out on memberships and had a 12000 person waiting list to be a member. In our worst ever year.

Face it - any afl team would love to have our crowds - with all the wanking your lot do about being a big club with 100000 members - why isnt the mcg as hostile to interstate teams as perth oval is?

Answer - cats and dogs mouthparts cant form a shape that allows them to make a booing noise.

Nope

Not that we are worried. We have a very well run club that consistently wins flags, plays in finals and rarely puts a foot wrong.

How has voting rights done for other clubs?

Carlton and richmond have voting rights dont they?
 
West coast membership numbers in 2010 were 43200 full seated 12 game members ground capacity is 43500

In our worst year our membership sold out and there were 12000 people paying just to be on the waiting list to be a member.

Nice try - fail

Stop hitting yourself.
And 10000 supporters were too precious to see their team play because the precious darling's coudln't cope being bottom of the ladder sad

West Coast supporters boo because the fair weather queen's don't follow their team enough to name any players lol

I just thought you’d try and buy your 12 game full membership at the start of the year.

As for being hostile to interstate state teams. Why ? Is it fun being hostile?
Is it fun booing the umpire all day ?

I wish every club has the support like West Coast does, AFL players would be paid twice as much and the facilities everywhere would be top notch.

The clubs could afford to take a moral stand against gambling income, we would have to suffer through a few "special edition" team tops a year to sell merchandise but that's not too bad.

Its fun watching teams wilt under the onslaught.

Its fun watching teams fall to pieces as the combination of pressure, parochial one sided crowd and scoreboard get on top of them.

Yes fkkkkkkkkkkn oath its fun
 
Consider yourself lucky because otherwise West Coast wouldn't have won the flag
Lol our game plan is designed to counter yours.

Thats why we thrashed you earlier in the year.

Thats why in 2017 you only beat us at the g by a handfull of points.

Thats why we will flog you this year. Mcg, etihad or mcg.

Interesting to note we've played the Tigers and the Pies at the G in the last couple of years to crowds of 33k and 29k respectively. When we play the Eagles in Perth or the Crows at AO the ground is full.

I think those matchups are actually better training for finals at the G than H/A games at the G. The hostility, and also the noise making it hard for the guys to communicate verbally.

That said the 2017 PF was unique in for noise and atmosphere in our short history.
