Bickley's an idiot.
So is Rowey, more so actually.
Indeed. The thing is I don't think Rowe can help being an idiot, whereas Bickley probably can.

Good at delivering a scripted response, presumably.

This is kinda what I think too. Seems to string an articulate sentence together but when you strip it down actually says very little

An interesting take on it in this article:
"There has been some talk about Peel Thunder, Fremantle’s connector club in the WAFL, and how they’re going to be playing their first final this weekend, but will now have almost no chance to win it.
Well, for supporters of Peel, and the players and officials involved….we don’t get everything we want in this world, and sometimes life just isn’t fair. Tough."
He's right, of course. Doesn't mean it's right.

Its an interesting read. Peel have been a basket case in the WAFL for years and are basically only competitive because of the now link with Fremantle.. Its not a great look for the comp no doubt, but its happening, and could well happen here.. The logistical nightmare being that the seasons don't line up.. As in, had it been the last round of the WAFL and not a final then its still less than ideal, but not as big of an issue

It is fantastic for WA Football that both Fremantle and West Coast are in the top two places on the AFL ladder and that their WAFL Partnering Clubs, Peel Thunder and East Perth, have also qualified for the WAFL Finals. It is an important component of the Partnering Model that success can be shared among all four clubs.
.......
It is also important to note that any challenges identified throughout the year, including the scenario referred to above, will be thoroughly assessed at the conclusion of the season in line with the WAFC’s commitment to an annual review of the Partnering Model.
No doubt a similar response would be heard here should this occur to the PAPs or Cows...
