Are we cursed?

Is that something to be proud of?
For years I've read on here how Magpies dinosaurs are stuck in the past, yet here we are bragging about people wearing Balmain orange.
The truth has its way of making itself known.
I’m confused. Where did I state that I or anyone else could be proud of whatever it is? I was simply responding to a statement and opinion that there are many wests tigers fans who are not supporters of magpies.
I was actually slightly disappointed that despite the bumper crowd it appeared that the Magpies fans were either not willing to make the trip across town, or having a self imposed boycott of LO? Or, the more logical explanation is Magpies didn’t have the numbers which supported my observation?

Or maybe theyre WTs fans now
 
It’s interesting how these days, when peeps disagree with a poster who dares to enthusiastically prosecute a viewpoint - they charge them with “trolling” (even “obvious trolling” 🤣)

The default position being to run off to the authorities and demand the poster be shut down.

I blame the echo chamber nature of
contemporary discourse 🤔

PS. Do I need to repost the Voltaire quote ?
And you are đź’Żcorrect B2T re "the poster be shut down" as I was shut down for 10 days [and I have not been told which post/posts I offended the rules in], this being my 1st day back to the forum.

I think you'll find there are many WT supporters who don't support the Magpies.

No, but it would show where you priorities lie mate. Are you a Wests Tigers supporter or a Wests Magpies.

If a decision needs to be made that is best for the Wests Tigers but harmful for the Wests Magpies, what decision to you make?
I support who I choose to support, and my answer to you is contained in @Bus 2 Terrigal post no. 119.
 
Ha ha , even that facetious comment isn't true.
Magpies can fly son, and they're way smarter.
It'd swoop from behind and peck the Tiger's eyes out.
You'd end up with a Tiger almost as blind as most forumites.
Seriously… in reality most house cats could beat up a magpie.🤣

Mate, I was beginning to think you’d
been taken out the back and shot 🤣

Reactions: BZN
How does someone protect the legacy of the Balmain Tigers?? What actual steps are involved in doing that??
Well for a start - when one is on certain Wests Tigers Forums and someone wishes to view an issue through the prism of Balmain eyes (or Western Suburbs eyes) - they don’t get hounded off to a dinosaurs holding pen set up crudely out the back. 🙄

Beyond the forum - I think Wests Ashfield have shown a lot of class in being more than generous in protecting the Balmain legacy. 👍
 
Great game sunday arvo eh terrigal ...probably our best win in quite a few years.
Not one comment on it tho?
Was a great win mate.
I’ve posted four times since the game - all in answer to others.
But this one was a brief comment on the result 👇

PS. But cheers for attempting to call my
loyalty into question 🙄

The best way to protect the legacies of both the balmain tigers and the wests magpies is to fully support the Wests Tigers.
What do you mean exactly ?

Does fully supporting the Wests -Ts mean you must support every aspect of right now - with no dissension. You support the home ground split just as it is circa 2025, you support the Magpies as NSW Cup team, you support every decision our management makes ?

Or do you accept that culture is a fluid beast and is ever evolving? And that players, coaches, and management are all prone to making mistakes.

I would argue that everyone on this forum fully supports the Wests-Ts.

The willing arguments/discussions revolve around the detail.
The elements that go to make the club as it is today, tomorrow and into the future. I don’t know why some people are so threatened by any of this 🤷‍♂️
