I remember the AwFL approving a pre-season game this year in Northam - they cancelled it when someone went out and saw that the grass was dead (shifting the game to Peel's home ground).
I was out having a kick at Northam on Thursday - the grass is back, nice and thick and green after last month's rain. It's a great ground, ready for action, not much for facilities but I think it would be a great gesture to the town to host a final's game. The town needs a lift and it's only 75 kms from Perth - easily accessible with the Avonlink train, or via TransWA bus.
