The argument for fully embracing the Macarthur as home for the Wests Tigers.

Do you think Wests Ashfield just handed over money to Balmain for nothing? No buddy, they received 40% of Wests Tigers, 2 operating clubs and a guaranteed lease on Victoria Rd...they've made back their "bankroll" and then some.

And yes...it's tacky to have another emblem growing in size on our sleeves when we are called the Tigers...the clubs are honoured with their emblems on the back of the neck. We don't need those ridiculous logos on the sleeve.

That last bit pretty much sums up your agenda.
I have wasted the last 25 odd years calling us the WestsTigers. Silly me.
We are apparently called the Tigers. Especially to a bitter and resentful Balmain supporter.
Let me know how that all works out for you.

What about if Cambo became our main owners and started pumping in the funds that Ashfield does (maybe more) and gave us the proper board set up and all that goes into a good football club.

What about then?

Would you support Cambo more?

Been banging on about this for years now. It’s the only viable solution however it won’t happen. Balmain to its core is hopeless Wests Ashfield are just inept at running a club.

Yes he is. That's what you have no idea about. They are required to...

You keep repeating your errors as if I haven't understood what you said the first time.

One more time...HBG, by law, are required to provide detail on their public financials. People can request in writing way more than is provided...most decent organisations just provide more info on request...I can't imagine they would refuse something like that, but you are hell bent on believing something opposite.

That includes, but is not limited to further breakdowns of consolidated amounts like "Football Department Expenses".

Are you talking about HBG or Wests Tigers?

Have you seen any other club provide info on where the football expenses go to?

What sort of breakdown are you hoping for? How much each coach is paid? How much we spent on resources? Physio? Equipment?

Its sad isn't it - he continually shouts down anything remotely related to Wests, makes out anyone who questions him a HBG lackey or magpie dinosaur yet continuosly rants on about all things balmain. You are wasting your time and energy even responding to him.

Come on man. You're not helping.

HBG directors are a basket case, but there is no question about them helping Balmain (I think the liabilities far outweighed the assets), and the magpie on the sleeve 100% deserves to be there.

Wake up and start fighting the fight that needs to be fought. Not this crap.

You forgot how many poker machine licences they also acquired. Makes a mockery of all on here saying how inept they are at running a business - pretty shrewd i would think.

When have I ever mentioned Balmain or Balmain Leagues Club in any of my comments?

I am talking about a home ground...not where the club wants to geographically operate scouting, juniors, academies etc.

I'm kinda tired of explaining it, because the club is now the Magpies anyway and we just have a token tiger on the jersey...3 magpies on the Wests Tigers jersey if you can believe it.

It's not the club I started supporting and you must be tickled pink everything is Magpies...happy for you mate. You basically got your club back.

You need to get over your Know-All personality mate.

I didn't bring it up...perhaps direct your virtue elsewhere.
