Documentary on WA-based Swans supporters
If there are two videos you only watch this year on Youtube, make it these two.This is a documentary made by a very passionate supporter of the club called Scott Honeysett who I seem to always see over in Perth or whereever every year when we play.
He interviews several of the awesome WA Swans Supporters Club members about the club 2005 & why they as West Australians support us & not the Illeagles or Quokkas.
Here are the links for Part 1 & 2:

If you are musing over whether to make the trip over to Perth for the Dockers game, have a watch of this. Seriously, as Grubby Stubbs said at the function at the Italian Club it is an honour to be with such a together & close group.I know Myles was rather stunned by the support the club has over in WA. Now they are not only cashing in on it but developing it. The club gets extra $$ in merchandise & membership sales (as well as the lunch if they have one). And get local people more importantly to feel a connection with the team coach & players. Plus first & foremostly, there is a loud visible group of supporters giving their all for their club in the furthest-most outpost in the league.Especially the Eagles fans don't like us & cant handle looking in our direction when we do them on their own dung heap. That is why WA away is so fun, because the Schadenfreude in seeing once-arrogant Eagles fans all depressed and not coping with things when WE beat them AGAIN is just awesome!
If you think the notion of the Swans family is a myth, seriously go to Perth and meet some of these people in person!
See you lot on Anzac Day! You owe me a beer OK
