Frankston Geelong West crowds

In a recent post reference was made to attendances at Frankston v Geelong games.
Its certainly a long way to travel, and back in the 1980's Geelong West players were getting jack of having to travel back from places like Dandenong, Springvale and Frankston late on Sunday nights, and then having to get up and work Monday mornings. Consequently Roosters tended to lose players to the GFL, because they could play Saturdays in Geelong.
