    Thumbs up W Coast have never played Homebush - nicks comments on scg

    "West Coast is set to make AFL history by becoming the first team to play a final on a ground on which it has never played a match." http://www.thewest.com.au/20040830/s...sto129210.html

    Plus I think there is a NRL match on friday night so training will be limited in AFL mode.
    Having said all that, the ground should suit them WC more than the SCG ie more like Subico. M Nicks comments "he would have preferred to play the Eagles at the SCG... smaller size suited the Swans' http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/...?oneclick=true

    There is no NRL game at Telstra in the lead up to Sat Night, so training there this week in AFL mode won't be a problem
