WA Crowd

[nomed 107]

Again.

His fault. Not the alcohol's.

Pretty easy to see why this behavior occurred:

• Long weekend in WA
• Friday evening game
• Early knock off from work
• Hit the Subiaco or city pubs to get a skinful
• Easy access to booze at the game
• Lax crowd control

We dread going to Subiaco for Melbourne games, usually don't wear our colours to avoid drawing attention from the knuckle dragging morons.

Once again, the behaviour occurred because the guy is a [censored], not because he had a drink.

It's not just the crowd, try living here, drivers are just as aggressive, the general public as a whole are quite feral.

Their idea of a holiday is going to Kuta in Bali, donning an Australian flag as a cape and going to the closest Australian themed bar.

Did I read somewhere the lady punched was an off duty police officer?

One would assume he fell on the way to the divy van..

Hope we 'fell'

An off duty police officer was assaulted but there were three reported assaults during the game.

The woman that got hit was an off duty cop. Probably not the smartest thing to do. Not that the guy knew she was one and still no excuse. Cracks me up when friends and family try to defend him. Maybe he wouldnt have been grabbed if he wasnt drinking and swearing his head off.

[Ethan Tremblay 28,391]

The off duty police officer was a male. The other two victims were female.

Maybe she is a former police officer.

PSD posted that she is a former work colleague and I am pretty sure that he has posted before that he works (maybe worked) as a police officer

He deserves to be dropped off at Manus Island...

Where else can you hear Khe Sahn and drink VB?

You must be one of those culturally immersive types that goes to Lombok.

Agree, biggestred, there seems to be a particular sort of anti-social behavior here in WA, where the knuckle draggers feel free to act like this,most likely because most of the time there is no consequences for it.

Its best described when they say "whatta ya gonna do about it!" because they know they will get away scot free, and if you object, you possibly you get hurt by them. Unless you are bigger and uglier there is no respect shown.

Aggression plus booze is not a good mixture

You might get off Ethan.

It was a glancing blow,which she clearly provoked,and you can plead insanity .

I was thinking involuntary intoxication. Someone must have slipped something into one of my ten beers.

Ah yes, happened to poor old Bill Cosby as well.Women will try anything to get their man.

[Bobby McKenzie 2,169]

We can get the Melbourne supporters out first tho

Phew! Thanks for that Gorgoroth.

[ILLDieADemon 804]

There all crazy here, half of the supporter don't even know the name of there captains but once they start making finals they all jump on board.

My wife goes for WC, I have never seen a bunch of woman scream so hard for a team they knew nothing about. Haha.

Got to give them credit though they have a lot of passion for there teams, the rivalry between the two teams is nuts!!

If they both made a Final there could have been a civil war.

Perhaps you've accidentally stumbled on a solution to the refugee crisis here WYL... every scumbag found guilty of committing a violent act against a woman could be shipped offshore to Manus (or dropped off the boat en route) and a refugee granted a residential visa.

The sister's surname was Yarran. Assuming she's not married I wonder if she was a relative......

The offender was a Yarran.

There are hundreds of Yarrans over here.

Drivers aggressive? My sister is over there and both our observations are that no one in Perth is in a hurry and as such can get no where near the speed limit, they all seem to dawdle along minding their own business but driving interstaters absolutely stark raving mad! Maybe that's it, the aggression on the roads is from the interstate ex pats wanting people to know what the hell they are doing on the road. No wonder people in WA plated cars seem to have no idea when they hit Melbourne traffic.

[Gorgoroth 12,321]

Yeah I thought the driving was quite tame over there, was enjoyable.

[Pennant St Dee 11,278]

well, Marley Williams got off with no jail time and a token, meaningless penalty..... So there's your precedent. Seems that that behaviour is ok over there.

Unless you know all the facts of the matter and not what the media says happened, you shouldn't comment on this. And your post makes it clear you have no idea what actually ocured that night in Albany

[Pennant St Dee 11,278]

The female assaulted is a current police officer and has been for some time.

The guy who punched the women has pleaded guilty and will be sentenced at the end of the month. I note the stadium has banned him for life.

How on earth do they police that if he is not a member and just buys a public ticket? And why isn't the ban extended to all stadiums and sport events in Australia?
