Is the march getting under your skin a bit? I think there’s gonna be a few people there.

It’s definitely getting to him. He knows his beloved HBG and ol mate Denny Burgess are under pressure.

lol the way he went at Joel there was incredibly petty and just childish 😂. Clutching at straws now but that’s not surprising coming from him.

He’s completely and utterly incapable of behaving rationally or reasonably.

The only problem is that it wouldn't be WT members voting it would be Wests Ashfield members. You would have to get a massive push for WT members to also become members of Wests Ashfield and with the sentiment on here i can't see that happening any time soon.

if they could influence decision making for the team they love than yes, they would pay the $5 and become a member.

It's like 10 bucks to be a member and guess what....Wests Tigers don't have a leagues club, so with voting rights, why wouldn't people sign up?..I think youd find theyre numbers would explode.

haven't got any issue with Wests Ashfield. I have a problem with 20 people who have unaccountable control.

In the year 2000, the Wests Tigers were established as a NRL Joint Venture with the Balmain Tigers.

As of today, the company Wests Magpies Pty Ltd (which is made up of 33% WSDRLFC
and 66% Holman Barnes Group) are majority owners/shareholders of the Wests Tigers NRL Franchise.

The WESTS name in the Wests Tigers NRL team represents Western Suburbs Magpies
The BLACK & WHITE in the Wests Tigers NRL Colours represents Western Suburbs Magpies
The FAMOUS MAGPIE BIRD on each sleeve of Wests Tigers NRL Jerseys represents Western Suburbs Magpies
The HERITAGE LOGO on the rear neck side of Wests Tigers NRL Jerseys represents Western Suburbs Magpies
NSW KOE Cup representation by Western Suburbs Magpies is a showcase and celebration of our stake in Wests Tigers

The Wests Tigers Centre of Excellence is built on the Grounds of the former Western Suburbs Magpies home ground of St Lukes Park Concord

Wests Tigers development of Macarthur based Juniors is a continuation of the 1987-1999 part of the Magpies FG era

Wests Tigers playing of home NRL matches at Campbelltown Sports Stadium is a continuation of the 1987-1999 part of the Magpies FG era

The name of Wests League Club at Leumeah was born out of Western Suburbs Magpies move to the Macarthur area in 1987

NOTE! - The Wests Tigers NRL Name/Brand and Logo are controlled trademarks of the ARL Commission,
hence they CANNOT be re-named or altered by HBG or WSDRLFC.

Wests Magpies Pty Ltd currently holds 90% & Balmain Tigers hold 10%.

- 3 x Directors directly elected in 3 year terms by eligible Wests Magpies FC members

Holman Barnes Group , formerly known as Western Suburbs Leagues Club (Ashfield) are the principal financial supporter to Wests Magpies.

Holman Barnes Group Support of current and former Balmain Tigers related operations
In 2020, Holman Barnes Group acquired the operating Assets of the Balmain Leagues Club Ltd.
This includes Tigers Sydney Markets Club (Flemington) and tenancy for a Future Tigers Leagues Club premises at Rozelle.

BTRLFC remains a separate entity and is not controlled by Holman Barnes Group.

Holman Barnes Group provides a grant to BTRLFC to assist in the running of Balmain Tigers Junior Reps Teams who have a pathway to Wests Tigers.


Ripped this straight from the HBG website. Was everyone aware they give Balmain a grant every year as well as being the financial backing of Wests into the JV too? I wasn't.

Also interesting that HBG has mentioned that Wests Tigers cannot be renamed. Seems a strange thing to advertise if the rumours of 'we are bringing back the Magpies' has any credibility..

One thing's for sure...you are a phenomenal copy and paster.

"In arguably the most important decision in the club’s tumultuous 25-year history, the haemorrhaging Wests Tigers have launched their search for a new chairman with a former Test star the leading contender to claim the position.

This masthead had been told three candidates for the club’s top job are Ben Elias, Leo Epifania and Dennis Burgess."

Are these blokes serious?

Surely they are feeding the media BS for a laugh

It's not exactly who I would have picked.

I had no idea he was part of the Perth Glory.

Wonder how the Perth Glory/Central Coast Mariners link might work.

Maybe bring back Lee & Pascoe & the Newcastle FC link can push Wests Tigers into a new career path.

Yep and see if Nathan Tinkler would like another crack with an NRL club.
