"Accepting the WAFC's verdict, Docker Control presented Young Balic with a new you-beaut pair of aqua coloured footy boots to hasten his pace to/from the interchange bench and the grub wagon at Rushton Park for the remainder of the WAFL season. Outspoken President of South Fremantle, Haydn Raitt, claimed this would give Balic and advantage over regular punters getting steamed hot dogs at the main break. 'Look, I agree that Balic would need sustenance parked all game on the pine like that, but there's nothing fair about leaving the soggy dogs to your run-of-the-mill WAFL supporters in ugg boots and flip-flops.'
Raitt has further inflamed tensions between the aligned/non-aligned WAFL clubs by asking John Todd to step in to block Balic with his crutches just inside the boundary this weekend. AwFL and WAFL legend Todd, respected for his visionary move that established a spectacular swan-shaped sculptural beer outlet on the outer at Bassendean Oval, is not shy to wave his aluminium crutches about when showing support for the common punter. Todd's office refused to comment on the hoo-ha, but released a measured statement condemning water-logged hot dogs that went cheap on the accompanying sauce."
