I work for a company in the hospitality/liquor industry and the word around the traps is that West End Brewery won't even get off their arses and load up a truck of beer for West Adelaide unless the money for it is sitting in West Ends bank account...

Well done West Adelaide! Does that mean you will have the confidence now to vote no?

Nice joke.

With Kerin, Shipway and Olsen leading the SANFL charge to accept the Crows B Team do you honestly think West would dare vote no?

Ground was in fair condition considering the rain over the past fortnight. Generally Richmond holds up well over winter due to no cricket wicket etc

Cheers BB, thought it would still be OK, considering a relatively dry week and worth the punt to give 200+ kids exposure to the footy club...

"...the current coach" :lol:

And obviously the script writers have never visited the BBQ or mound bar if they think the bench is the most iconic spot at Richmond. :lol:
