Channel 9 said that tyhe new club would be branded as Wests Ashfield. Whilst Wests are paying for it I thought they may brand it as a Wests Tigers Leagues.

Wests tigers leagues sounds a bit funny. You don't see St George Illawarra Dragons leagues or Parramatta eels leagues.Channel 9 said that tyhe new club would be branded as Wests Ashfield. Whilst Wests are paying for it I thought they may brand it as a Wests Tigers Leagues.
Stuff it, just put a big mural of Benji holding up the trophy but wearing the red V. #TigersDNAWests tigers leagues sounds a bit funny. You don't see St George Illawarra Dragons leagues or Parramatta eels leagues.
It should be wests leagues or just tigers. Wests Tigers Logo prominent on all the clubs facades.
don't mind it branded wests leagues as long as it has the wests tigers emblem and not the wests ashfield Tiger
Makes sense.... So that probably won't occurdon't mind it branded wests leagues as long as it has the wests tigers emblem and not the wests ashfield Tiger
I would not believe anything Channel 9 saysChannel 9 said that tyhe new club would be branded as Wests Ashfield. Whilst Wests are paying for it I thought they may brand it as a Wests Tigers Leagues.
That's the planProbably. Even Wests Tigers - Balmain and Wests Tigers - Ashfield would be good. With a Wests Tigers Campbelltown you’ve really got some good branding going.
That’s because Wests at Leumea and Wests Ashfield are two seperate clubs. The people that run Wests Ashfield aren’t involved with running Wests at Leumea and vice versa.(They currently don’t call Wests leagues at Leumea Wests Ashfield Leumea)
that is a good option moving forwardI remember Darcy Byrne telling me a couple of years ago that the discussions he was party to with Simon Cook etc revolved around the new club being labelled Wests Tigers Leagues Club - Balmain. And that Ashfield would become WTLC - Ashfield.
And any future new clubs, if any, would also be branded likewise.
I'll boil it down quickly because you don't appear to have the background.Appreciate that, And don't doubt they did.....
But I don't build bridges - Because I don't know how.....
Good intentions doesn't make anyone the right people for a position or responsibility.
A high profile leagues club that has been around for a very long time should never be in that position....
Noticed thatWhilst it's a fine concept to want to have a Wests Tigers Leagues Club, actually no such business entity exists at this time. Wests Ashfield is the leagues club entity at Ashfield, and Wests Tigers are the football club entity.
However I've actually just discovered that Wests Ashfield appear have rebranded themselves the "Holman Barnes Group". If you google Wests Ashfield, you get linked to HBG
and it's the same WA directors we've always had.Our Directors - Holman Barnes Group
Holman Barnes Group is led by a group professionals who are skilled company directors and passionate supporters.holmanbarnesgroup.com.au
But now it appears WA is one of the brands in their portfolio, along with the Croydon and Markets entities they absorbed from Balmain.
Therefore it does make sense that they might be repositioning themselves for a new club at Rozelle to be a 4th club entity under the Holman Barnes Group banner, and therefore no specific need to brand the new club "Wests Ashfield".
Should be pretty obvious to everyone that Holman Barnes is a reflection of the merger, both Keith H and Keith B.
At least there is a continued and genuine acknowledgement of the partnership and the shared history.Noticed that
Finally maybe a united front is happening and it might be the start of something fir the club, has only taken 20 years
I just received an email as a Wests Ashfield LC member detailing exactly that.Whilst it's a fine concept to want to have a Wests Tigers Leagues Club, actually no such business entity exists at this time.

Thanks for sharing. I am a Wests Ashfield member but I haven't received any communication yet.I just received an email as a Wests Ashfield LC member detailing exactly that.
Introducing Holman Barnes Group
talkbox.impactapp.com.au
At the bottom of the email it states the following.
“
Individual club names will not be changing, however our new umbrella brand will better encompass all of Wests' entities: Wests Ashfield, Croydon Sports Club, Markets Club, our representation in Wests Magpies, our shareholding at Wests Tigers, as well as our plans for the new Balmain Leagues Club. It will also help differentiate us from other Wests club groups.
Our new website will make it easier to navigate between our venues, but our ethos will remain unchanged.”
There you have it.
