I think the WAFL has found a real niche with families these days. Its a great place to take your kids for a few hours without costing you a cent. I have an AFL membership and I have watched more WAFL than AFL over the years. I prefer local footy and enjoy the rivalries which are totally non-existant at AFL games in Perth.

But I have always liked Belmont Park as a site. Like DD said it has enormous room for parking (much like the old Waverly in Vic). The East Perth powerstation site is laughable. I have spent alot of time down there with work and how they could ever expect a 70,000 seat stadium to work there is a joke. Getting Belmont Park off the racing industry would be a problem. But I would vote for it hands down.
