WAFL in 2020 - Would you watch it?

[CM9000]

Given we've just had our fifth straight day without any new cases, and we're now 2 weeks without any community transmission, it seems a real possibility that the WAFL will start up before the AFL. I've seen some reports that restrictions could be lifted even further by the middle of May, so hopefully the WAFL can restart a bit earlier.

Given all this, and assuming there could potentially be the opportunity for crowds to return (in a limited capacity, as the AFL has suggested), would people on here who don't directly support a WAFL club watch it with more interest? Would people on here be more willing to attend games, since the WAFL is the only elite comp in WA atm?

I know I definitely would. IMO I'd actually pay money just to watch a C Grade ammos match between two mid tier teams, apart from the one I currently already play for.

I’d chip in and support the WAFL in challenging times

Probably not to be honest.

Would the Beagles be allowed to compete or would the AFL play the "unfair advantage" card?

They wont be playing this year for cost cutting.

ESPN is currently airing the Korean basketball league because they know people will watch any and all live sport that is available.

That is to say, if there were WAFL footy on before the AFL, I would consume it religiously.

I'd love to get down to Lathlain and support the boys.

I only found out that Lathlain Oval has a HJs when I went to watch the Eagles v Bombers JLT game. I'm all for wondering down to smash full strength beers and eat HJs. Oh and to watch footy too.

Who wouldn’t want to head down to lathlain to watch perennial losers perth, while smashing down $7 cans of beer in the can bar and yelling abuse at the red leg jellyfish?

I will continue to support the WAFL as I always have. Far more important that some funds get there than the AFL clubs.
