Boy the club really dodged a bullet and found a gold nugget with Stefano knocking back the WT offer of $800k a year whilst picking up Terrell. If Stefano had played like Terrell we might not have seen the WT getting 3 wooden spoons. Maybe Laurie Daley will get over his West Tigers suck attitude...

I would assume a new Wests Tigers brand leagues club, financed by HBG and the members would be more palatable to most than Ashfield or Wests Campbelltown. If the two existing leagues clubs actually saw eye to eye, and looked after the juniors etc they could leverage their finances to start a...

A Wests Tigers Leagues club in the Macarthur would also help, just brand it "Tigers" (that'll keep the Balmain boys happy) as Penrith did with "Panthers". Slowly adding "experiences" as Panthers have done with their cable skiing, aqua golf etc (Tigers could offer something different). It would...

Well you've got that area to the North of the Macarthur like you've mentioned, but there's huge growth now out to Appin & even Wilton, with hundreds of homes being built along with new shopping centres etc. Campbelltown is central to that huge catchment.

Note that the Bulldogs were VERY keen on building a Stadium in Liverpool.....away from their traditional area in order to be close to the talent of the Macarthur and Liverpool and a growing fan base as kids moved from places like Belmore and Wiley Park to cheaper housing in Liverpool...

With Rick Wayde reprising his role as ground announcer? We'd need to train him up as a modern ground MC and get him playing hits from the 70s 😂 2SM giving out promo gear, have Steve back out front of the gates selling the best game day hot dogs and the canteens pie ovens full of Janson's Pies...

While more of a mere park than stadium, between 1978 and 1981 Lidcombe Oval was indeed a fortress, the opposing visiting teams hated the place for 3 reasons: 1) Playing against arguably rugby leagues most brutal forward pack. 2) The ground was hard for opposing teams gain to gain lateral...

The vast majority of NSW based Pasifika players come from Western Sydney, especially the South West in the Macarthur & Liverpool region. Further North there's plenty from the Mt Druitt - St Marys area. Penrith has really tapped into the psyche of the region, Wests Tigers almost had that back in...

My preference would be a revamped Campbelltown, I'm attached to the joint and miss regularly going there now I live on the Mid North Coast. Ideally it would be something similar to the set up at Newcastle, but with at the very least a 30k capacity. However, if it means a permanent presence...

It'd be like history repeating itself in a way. Wasn't the reason the powers that be hired Aiden Seezer to be the experienced guy to help develop our young halves? He didn't work out to well, his discipline was up there with the bad old days of Darren Senter, he became a liability. If Sexton...

"We haven't got a solution": NSW Premier's frank admission over Accor Stadium NSW Premier Chris Minns has acknowledged there is no immediate solution to the state's stadium conundrum, with questions swirling around the future of Accor Stadium and the broader sporting infrastructure strategy...

He can play just about anywhere on the field. I'm convinced we could snap him up on a very prudent contract.

Regarding questionable refereeing decisions, well what's OK for every other team just isn't OK for Wests Tigers players. I still believe there is a clandestine push to get rid of this club, led by NewsCorp but aided and abetted by the NRL & with other media outlets & certain player managers all...

I do realise that, I'm just putting things in perspective for the doom sayers.

Tyran Wishart would also be a handy signature to gain.

I feel for Adam. I knew his Dad, Mark...the maddest Bunnies supporter I've ever met. I met him at a pub I was living upstairs in after seperating from my ex wife, he was a near local, at the pub regularly. He was a bad drunk....used to get parylitic....and was putting plenty through the...

We SHOULD be sitting on 18 points now, with another 2 coming this weekend that would 20 points coming into Rd 16. We SHOULD have beaten the Knights in Rd 1, the Warriors in Rd 4 and Penrith last weekend. If the boys had turned up in the 1st half of Rd 13 against the Cowboys we SHOULD have won...

He's only 24 and like a good red wine only get better with age!

At 24, he'll still be a young forward after a 3 year stint with us.

That can be trained out of him. Thankfully Bulla and Tito have hands as safe as anyone in the comp, To'a is pretty safe under a high ball but not quite as good as the other two I've mentioned.
