Home Ground Advantage

[Stevec]

I see out of 25 games this year we have 3 at Campbelltown and 3 at Leichardt that's 6 out of 25 where we have a genuine home ground advantage. I see clubs such as Storm, Newcastle Manly,Raiders
etc having real 12 games real home ground advantage .I assume its about money which everyone says we have plenty .Given our struggles on field surely we need every advantage

Just another issue on a long long list.

Just looking at the draw now? If we started the season 5-0 you wouldn’t care

Its already been addressed once the current deal with Bankwest finishes - whether it actually happen we will have to wait and see.

Good post. We're that bad it probably wouldn't make much difference this year but in a year where we genuinely compete it could be the difference between being top 8 or also-rans.
On a related topic, how many home games have we lost on magic weekends at Suncorp? It seems every year we lose a home game to play at Suncorp. I don't like being a conspiracy theorist but does anybody know the situation.

It's been talked about heaps, apparently we are looking to change that to just being CS and LO in the years ahead.

Money has always talked for the Wests Tigers and we have been desperate for the stadium deals. Our books for once are looking cashflow positive currently so maybe times have changed - which is impressive given we aren't winning.

I won't hold my breathe but geez it would make things alot easier if we just played at LO and CS, we just need crowds to turn up and support the team to use the home ground advantage then.

Is CS, or LO an advantage.
How many important games have we been boed off the ground, eg. Doing it for Tommy!

With the way we have been playing the last 2yrs, nope.

Before I die I want to go to my ol stomping ground LO and stand under the score board, hot dog with tomaty sauce and beer in hand, on a clear sky night and watch the tigers win 40+ on the Eels or Dogs.
🤞😴

If you make that hot chilli sauce instead of tomato i wouldn't even care if we got 6 inches of rain during the game

Part of a ten year deal that thankfully is about to end.
