    CEO - Shane Richardson

    Broncos are the only ones that really publish clear figures. $81 million revenue and $8.4 million profit.

    CEO - Shane Richardson

    Someone very senior at another club used to joke with me that "winning is good for business". Richo can bang on as much as he wants about expanded corporate facilities, but until we start winning on the regular, the only businesses we're attracting are those with a kink for self flagellation.

    CEO - Shane Richardson

    Hard to believe some people are still blaming the coach after all these years. Fair dinkum, even Ivan Cleary couldn't do much with us. We're still at the start of a rebuild of the entire club from the ground up. And Richo's not even a year into undoing years of bad work. Sketchy membership...

    Could it just be one of those seasons for alot of clubs...

    I admire your optimism, but there's a big difference between losing by 20-30 points compared to nearly 70. I'm no chicken little either, but I've seen enough footy to know that you don't play like we did on Sunday unless there are issues among the playing group.

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    The writing has been on the wall for Galvin for a while now. More and more teams have been isolating him in defence. He's easily 10kg under where he needs to be and still looks like he's trying to create something from every play. Richo and Benji need to swallow their pride and send the bloke...

    Brent Naden #256

    Great to see Naden playing some good footy, I've always had a soft spot for him. The question for me is why he seems to have picked up a gear or two? Is it Benji? Is it having a few ex-Penrith guys around? Is it just that the team's winning? Something away from footy?

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    I guess if people are planning to boo the young fella for taking more money elsewhere, they will also be booing the blokes who joined our club for more money too?

    OFFICIAL Lachlan Galvin #277 *Released* Career Discussion.

    If I take my Wests blinkers off, I honestly don't blame the kid and his family. There are basically no decent halves on the market currently, if ever there was a time to sell yourself to the highest bidder, it's now. With the Wests blinkers on, I think we'll be fine. He's a loss for sure but...

    2 teams who slide backward in 2025

    Surprised the Panthers haven't had more mentions. They seem to have half our wooden spoon roster and have lost a lot of talent.

    $30 Million boost for Campbelltown Stadium Centre of Excellence.

    Putting this at the northern end is a smart move, with the leagues club at the south and the newish tennis club at the north. Two decent spots at either end of the ground for a pre or post game drink and feed.

    $30 Million boost for Campbelltown Stadium Centre of Excellence.

    Looks amazing. Hopefully we make the most of the sports science work that WSU have planned.

    What Wests Tigers players have you bumped into in public?

    As the title suggests, what Wests Tigers player, past or present have you randomly bumped into in public? Maybe you saw Jarrod McCracken in the waiting room at your local chiro? Perhaps you saw Liam Fulton at the barber? I'll go first, about a month ago I saw Luke Laulilii walking a few...

    Australia Day 2025

    Can't say I look back on the days of cops getting away with threatening and bashing people as nostalgically as some of you guys......

    Australia Day 2025

    I'm not very political, but I think the average person is growing tired of everyone labelling everything they don't agree with as a "woke agenda".

    Australia Day 2025

    I remember going to an Australia Day event in the late 80s with my Aboriginal grandmother, my migrant Dad who didn't speak much english and my brother. From memory, it was pretty boring. There was damper and a few Captain Cook style re-enactments. A couple of flags. Mostly white Australian...
