Sounds like a netball reference

I thought she was confused with the winners circle in horse racing? She was a babbling idiot if i'm being Frank (cue the Frank jokes.)

Impressive victory over in Perth, especially given the time difference. The girls got even stronger in that second half even though it was past midnight our time.

ridiculous timeslot for a game

Late Perth games are great. And from a practicality perspective it's the best way to get them out of the worst of the heat and avoid simultaneous games which split the audience.

As my wife said, Perth have the disadvantage of travelling here all the time so why not use home games to their advantage.

Also it was still 38 degrees at kickoff.

I was thinking more about the viewing time. Would have thought most people are watching from the east coast where it starts at 10:30 on a Sunday night. Not exactly family friendly.

They would have the data on it I guess but my feeling is they are more worried about prioritizing the local WA audience at home and at the ground. Going forward I would hope the APL can be smart with their scheduling as we add more teams, there's potential for VIC & NSW viewers to see a 3PM NZ game, 5PM East coast/ADL game, 7:45 PM game, Perth late game on some Saturdays. With the second NZ team coming in that should happen most weeks, Perth can only be half the time.

Fair enough. I'd rather add more NZ teams and kick Perth out though, but that's just me ?

Im not opposed to it. It’s a much better away day!

Yeah. No one needs WA. They hate being part of Australia anyway.

East Coast is the best Coast

No, the Central Coast is the best coast.

At one stage it was more likely NZ would join Federation and WA would not. They tried to secede in 1933 and then later Richard Court as premier threatened to try again. However, when the mineral rich north of the state said they would join the rest of Australia he quickly shut up.

there is a reason people would rather fly in - fly out of WA than live there
