This feels like the end somehow

Thank you for trying to drag this club into the modern age. Hopefully the NRL intervene and force a sale.

I still believe that Wests Magpies Ashfield/ HBG should have nothing to do with the running of the Wests Tigers. I would like to see them stripped of their license and or forced to sell. I still think that any and all HBG Directors who want to try and bring about the reintroduction of the Wests...

So. I have, until this turn of events, been one of the 'dinosaurs' who has long-dreamed of an 'unmerge' and the return of Balmain as a standalone entity. First game at Leichhardt in '83 blah blah blah. What has happened over the last couple of days, as well as making me furious, has made me...

And what type of mammal has perched itself on that guys head?

Surely the League can step in and strip them of the licence. Force a sale. Anything.

Wests Magpies - 117 years of incompetence and counting. Such a shame they for readmitted to the league after they were kicked out in the early 80s. Hapless, small-time boobs.

Same old stuff, year after year. Out of interest, what is the win ratio of teams controlled by Wests Magpies over the past 50 years?

A team owned by losers will never win

Any chance HBG ever sell up?

Mine too

Jacin Sinclair was next level. Could have been the last great Balmain Tiger if things had gone differently. Selected for Origin but pulled out due to injury. Was crazy talented.

This has been interesting for me. I'm genuinely surprised at how few people share my opinions on this. I think what I've realised is that I actually don't really have a connection to this club and its supporters any longer. I've lived in the UK for the past 15 years and still watch every Tigers...

Honestly, I know this won't happen but I'm allowing myself to dream. It would be amazing.

As much as I like watching them playing 'home' games at someone else's ground and losing every week.

Bring it on. Please oh please make this happen. The merger hasn't worked. It has no soul. People talking about all the fans and sponsors walking away are kidding themselves. What matters is success. If the Balmain Tigers (one of the most iconic 'brands' in rugby league potentially playing out of...

For God’s sake just relocate the club to Perth. An absolute shambles for 22 of its 25 years existence. The merger didn’t work. That‘s fine. Just please stop. Went to my first game at Leichhardt in 1983. Balmain are dead. stop besmirching their memory with this joke of a ’club’.

Positives - Galvin, Fainu, there’s only 24 games or so of this crap left until the end of the season.

Who was the last team to run last 3 times in a row? Was it the Magpies?

We are a rabble. Just an embarrassment of a club. Half-arsed, wandering around, waiting for someone else to do something. And the thing is I honestly don’t care anymore. This is my 41st season and I’m done
