 Print Article: WA derby that thrilled a nation
But their round-22 clash under Subiaco lights was possibly the most important home-and-away game ever played in Perth, the prize for the victor a potential double chance and, at least, a home final.
And they were rewarded with the best game of the AFL season, an epic contest; quick, skilful and with never more than a couple of kicks in it, finally snatched by the Dockers after Chris Connolly's team looked set to cave in.
For the AFL and the television networks came emphatic reassurance that even the fortunes of two teams from the other side of the continent could hold the east coast enthralled.

Saints members should be excited about this season, but not about an unrealistic target of making the top four, or some unobtainable win-loss ratio.
What does matter is that they know only Grant Thomas as a league coach and they find a stability in him that they will need to fall back on during their formative times of becoming a hard-core, matchwinning league football team.
Wallis has worked by Grant Thomas's side at St Kilda for the past two seasons and told him of his decision to return to the Dons only hours before the Saints jetted out for their training camp in Britain last Saturday.

 ABC Sport - Dan Lonergan on AFL
Round 12 again indicated that the interstate teams seem to be too strong for the Victorian sides in this 2003 AFL season, with all six teams from outside the Garden State firmly entrenched in the top eight and likely to stay there beyond the mid-season break.
St Kilda takes the break light on for big men, with a six win and six loss record and in contention, but its lack of depth in the tall timber department could prove costly in the run home to September.
Anyway, the men from Glenferrie go into the break in an excellent frame of mind and still in contention to be part of September, unlike Carlton, Melbourne, Geelong and the Western Bulldogs.

Labor was a force to be reckoned with this past proxy season, chalking up victories in advocating regulatory reform and proposing shareholder resolutions.
Unions can take credit for lobbying the Securities and Exchange Commission to take action in two key areas: mutual fund proxy-voting disclosure, where the commission adopted a landmark rule; and access to director nominations, a topic that the commission has catapulted to the top of its current agenda.

Because unlike the first two games of the season in which the officials let the players play, referee Pat Garvey and his crew took over the game with needless flags and tedious explanations.
Someone in the AFL office needs to sit down and explain to this crew that the players, not the guys in the striped shirts, should decide the game.
