Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Not sure about Ryde oval, they tend to play more AFL to develop their juniors in the area.

Our family go and watch the Woodies play at TG. If you live in the inner west, outer west or north west, it's a quick drive across Sydney to Marsfield and it's a great day out.

Marsfield could work but if a quality player had a choice of Marsfield or play at Wentworthville or St Mary's I don't think Marsfield will attract any players compared to the COE at Concord or Lidcombe oval maybe? birchgrove would be brilliant.

I grew up in the inner west and I know plenty of Wests Tigers fans from the area who never miss a Leichhardt Oval game, but think it’s beyond them to head any further west than Ashfield.
Our South-West based supporters embrace Leichhardt Oval much more than our Inner West based supporters embrace Campbelltown and I don’t think you need to do a survey to work that out.
Throw in all our South West based players who continue to get overlooked and shafted.
We once had a CEO who kept saying we are a development club and we embrace the South-West.
Actions speak much louder than words.

With Shark park having the capacity of Pratten park certainly would not help your business plan.
It’s funny for a successful franchise for a long time they have always had financial woes. I thought they made a zillion from their land deal and were set for life. Hopefully they have to offload a few players…to us

Should the wests tigers bring back Pratten park back to life in some way shape or form?

Well anyone who’s sat on the hill with the sun setting knows what it used to be like.
The Wayne Pearce stand at the southern end used to be the main stand with dressing rooms underneath.
Percy’s used to be called the North Sydney hotel and was a very popular waterhole before, during and after the game ( seeing it’s about 50 paces from the main entrance).
New stadiums have the facilities but they don’t have that character like the old grounds. Henson Park, Pratten Park, Belmore, Redfern, Kogarah, Sydney Sports Grounc, North Sydney, Leichhardt.
All had their unique attractions . There I go again reminiscing. Good days.

League should be played at pratten park again atleast at Park footy level for the seniors or junior , but I think AFL took it.

I’m an old Pratten Park Magpie and love going to Leichhardt but also think the clubs long term future is in a first rate stadium at Campbelltown

Pratten park needs to be brought back to life and have league played there again in the lower grades. And ctown stadium for the first and 2nd grade.

Wallace actually for a season played out of the Penrith district with CarlingFord cougars in Balmain JRL... so he could return to play in his mates team... He was in a different division to his friends when he first got to St Mary's I'm assuming (not sure on his Penrith club)

Carlingford cougars great club.

We should be trying to get Tyrone May as well.
Maybe we can get Rob Lui, John Elias and Craig Field to join the coaching staff whilst we are busy collecting dickheads…

They would have to give you a jersey if that’s the strategy.

The club could sign prime Andrew Johns and you would still find a way to complain.

Brailey ✅️
Mann ✅️
Frizzell ❓️
Schiller ❓️

Solomone, extended.
Hopefully Sukkar & the Fainus, also extended.

Honestly, that's not a bad recruitment drive.

Benji's primary aim is recruiting quality depth. Had nothing 20-30 this season. I am happy with how this is working out. Some solid signings with experience. Schiller carved up at the Raiders. Would be immense if we could get that player out of him.
