The last few years have been all over 30k, but they've also been derbies.

Yep, whats the bet Worsfold purposely lost so he didn't play the Dockers in a Derby match

22,819 is probably on the low side. Its around 25,000 when the Eagles play collingwood. But there are certainly better things to do on a Saturday Night then be at Subiaco Oval...

No match was relocated to the telstra dome in 1983.

The C/wood vs Eagles last week was orginally scheduled for Sth Africa. l presume they needed a week to get over the travel

And if C/wood play Richmond the game is going to be played at Telstra Dome on Thursday 26th, according to the Age.

Move the game elsewhere, why the f**k must they play a day or so before the A-League GF and completely f**k up the pitch with diviots and worst of all, linemarkings.

Play the game elsewhere FFS!

No chance the GF will be at the Adelaide Oval.

They could always play the A-league at the MCG - only 2 men & a dog will be there for the cricket

Where, the Junction Oval? It's not like there are a shitload of grounds around that can hold the 25,000-odd people you'd expect (35k+ if Cousins plays), especially given the MCG isn't available.
