I agree with him, but doubt I would have at the same age. Each to their own, but I wouldn’t be going there for the bars. And good luck finding anything open on a Sunday.

You know what young punks are like these days... 😅

Just facts darling.

The point is, the prevailing attitude from the residents was there is bugger all to do in Perth.

Which caravan park did you stay in with Mummy and Daddy when you were in Perf 20 years ago. 
There is a few dicey ones around.

I was in some fancy hotel in the city with a bunch of footballers including some then-soon-to-be AFL players and a former Brownlow medallist, funnily enough. Also spent some time in Margaret River on that trip.

My younger brother (21 yrs of age) is over there playing WAFL footy and living a bachelor life with his best mate from the bush.

He absolutely loves it and reckons its the best move he's made. Reckons the weather is unreal and some great night spots.

 

Who’s he playing for DD

It’s a narrow view and may speak more of where and who you were socialising with.

You’re talking 20 years ago, but even then clear didn’t venture to Freo, Cott or Scarborough on a Sunday.

Perth Demons under Germo mate.

Been a real struggle this season unfortunately.

I think the narrow view you speak of may be more appropriate than your own, considering the demographic and company I kept would be very similar to what Harley would find himself in.

And no, I didn’t venture to Freo, Cott or Scarborough then (on a Sunday at least) but I did 4 years ago & there wasn’t much change.

Each to their own.

My brother is near Cotts and ventures down to Scarborough a fair bit.

Probably explains why he's loving it??

As I said - I would agree now!

Changing tastes. Just a lot quieter than I liked at that age, but then again I was a fan of the big cities that don’t sleep.

How to derail a thread in 3 easy steps...

I see Brad Scott has been caught waxing lyrical over Harley on 360.

I've never been to Perth mate, I only get the snap chat updates ha.

The club is septic, some changes have occurred but a lot more required.

I was involved there last season and have many Perth followers as mates and after being in the inner workings of the club was able to see a number of the issues. Very similar to us under Schwabby and the boys club.

A lot of self preservation amongst the group behind many of the long term issues and until they move on it won’t change. I’m aware there’s conflict between Germo and the FM and that’s not surprising.

Hopefully they get their house in order soon

I’m born and raised Victorian but spent 60% of my life here. 
 

Cities don’t do it for me all that much to be honest. 
 

Both States have amazing scenery and things to do. 

I just get humoured by people slagging off Perth as a hole when they’ve made a couple of fleeting visits here in their life and are in reality nowhere near equipped to make an accurate nor pragmatic assessment of the city.

Don’t worry mate, it’s not a hole.
It just has limited obvious appeal to a dumb kid. But we’re talking about footballers here, so not many Rhodes scholars among them.

It's an absolute classic when:

  • you jump on 'Land at lunchtime to check-up on major news
  • you see the HOT tag against a thread and think "[censored] . . . some big news"
  • you quickly click the thread (in my case the Harley Reid thread)
  • as the thread is loading you're thinking "Melbourne's swapped Grundy into Norf in return for their number two pick"
  • what you find is three 'Landers engaged in a fascinating discussion about anything but Harley Reid
  • LoL and LMFAO.

That, and, in my view, the best weather in the country.

My mum lived in Perth for a few years, and I visited in the school holidays.

Fell in love with the weather - I hate humidity and I love the dry heat and of course the beaut freo doctor that comes in during summer in the late arvo and drops the temp to balmy not crazy hot like Melbourne can get.

Saw my first ever live gig at a pub when I was 15 - hoodoo gurus at the I think joint called the lizard lounge. Probably no longer there.

The Gurus were/are a great live gig.

One flag now, with an excellent culture will generate future flags, regardless of draft points in this draft.

We must never even contemplate tanking. Tanking is cultural poison, wrapped up like a sweet.

You've convinced me to your way of thinking, that we should maybe contemplate competing for this year's flag - I just hope the footy department are on board with such an approach. Even if our first-rounder slips back to say #21, we could possibly package it up with our future first and Freo's second to move back up to around that #17 mark.

This is genius and hope our recruiting staff bring you on as a consultant as you appear well versed in both conning and insulting.

Haha. Sorry demonsaw, just being playful. No insult intended - I was born with my tongue firmly lodged in my cheek. However, you did just manage to denigrate the entire industry which currently pays my bills (although I agree with the conning assessment).

No worries Skuit. I took your bait and swallowed it. I’m sure your clients get more value than you bill them for.

This is undoubtedly true, but just to be clear I'm not a consultant. I just write about the various conpeople and swindlers in the industry, along with the decent folk who also genuinely try to make a difference.

Loves the beaches that's for sure.

Barrass to stay - bodes well for our chances to secure pick 1.

At the same time, it increases the premium on key defenders, as McKay prepares to exit North. This might bring compensation further into play and if we are to keep our earlier picks.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
