West Coast Eagles fans turning Perth Stadium into a cauldron with chorus of boos
COLLINGWOOD’S preliminary final match-winner Mason Cox hasn’t wasted any time giving Melbourne fans a dig on social media. Meanwhile, West Coast fans are blowing up about the umpires, despite being 10 goals up.

Don't miss out on the headlines from West Coast. Followed categories will be added to My News.
MASON Cox has delivered a sledge the Aussie cricket team would be proud of.
The big American - fresh off his preliminary final-winning exploits - had a not so subtle dig at Melbourne fans as they watch their team be torn about by West Coast.
Western Australia Police didn’t miss out on the Demons bashing either with some gold.
LIVE: EAGLES V DEMONS PRELIMINARY FINAL
Cox tweeted his parents’ flights from Dallas to Melbourne were cheaper than Demons’ fans travelling to Perth ... and, of course, they got to see their son star.
As you can imagine, the sledge wasn’t well received by the red and blue faithful and the Magpies forward won’t want to disappear in next week’s Grand Final.
After copping a red and blue backlash, Cox deleted the tweet.
Missing: Melbourne Demons. Were expected at Optus Stadium just after one this afternoon. Seems they have Gawn missing. #AFLEaglesDees pic.twitter.com/eO1XTwarVi

EAGLES “WOULD BOO THEIR OWN GRANNIES”
DEATH, taxes and a chorus of boos ringing out from West Coast supporters at a packed Perth Stadium.
Notoriously the most parochial home supporter base in the AFL, Eagles fans are holding up their end of the bargain with deafening roars of derision every time something goes Melbourne’s way as the two teams face off in a preliminary final clash.
And social media has taken notice, with many annoyed by the noise coming out of the sellout crowd.
West Coast supporters would boo their own Grannies if they were playing for a Victorian club. #AFLFinals #AFLEaglesDees

If west coast wins next week is gunna be who can boo the longest

I love AFL, but I hate booing crowds. West Coast Eagles have just about everything going for them, but still they boo. Too much booze perhaps.

West Coast supporters would boo at a funeral.

Do west coast fans just boo for the sake of booing? #AFLEaglesDees

âThereâs always a reason to booâ Eagles Fans

Be prepared everyone. If itâs not a pro Eagles decision 95% of the crows are going to boo, loudly. #AFLEaglesDees

When are they going to change the team name to West Ghost Eagles? The way the crowd keeps yelling #boo it makes sense #AFLEaglesDees
