What I am talking about is this:
Giants have played in four consecutive finals series since 2016
They have now claimed a Coleman medalist unlike Freo, Goldy and Port
They have also claimed a diamond milestone games holder (300 from health Shaw)
They have beaten all 16 intial clubs at least once
They have also players on contract with the prospect of becoming a mono Giant throughout their entire league-football career
So, are these factors not an argument to claim their contribution on the field... apparently???
Think you will find you missed his point elijah as he is saying off field they havnt contributed.
I completely disagree and think the world these days are to short minded and demand reaults without acknowledging that some things have to be built and take time.
For the first 8 years fremantles crowd attendance did not grow and sat at arpund 22,000. It wasnt till they had time to establish that the crowd attendances started to grow to th 33,000 it sits at today. This is consodering that the western australian market is alot easier to crack than the sydney market.
Gws on the other hand has an average crowd attendance of 20,000 which has been building steadily every year.
So in reality you question their attendance yet they are literally only 2,000 less than that of what fremantle were at the same time in their development (and thats in a much harder market)
But they aren’t getting 20k every week mate. Most weeks are closer to 10k.
And the main difference is, as we know, Freo did not encounter any onfield success until around 2010.
GWS have had a sustained period of onfield success over 4 years. Yet they can’t even fill a 24,000 capacity stadium for a cut throat final. And that is with thousands of dogs supporters flying over.
Not trying to hate, because it benefits everyone to have an even comp where every team is sustainable and successful.
Noticed I edited last post - I realised I overlooked such factorMate, have a read up, I’ve already said they have done pretty well on the field and made good decisions as a club.
I have clearly stated numerous times that I am talking about off field.
Yes I realise I might be guilty of being such part there but when someone else starts saying those sort of things, ...ok we'll take it to another threadCome on guys get back on topic. Take that conversation to another thread.
