Dudes,
Spoke to a bloke today,
He told me that Balmain is perilously close to allegedly folding completely.
He said both Juniors and Seniors have owed the makers of their gear $60,000.00 since February and they can't pay it. The Leagues Club allegedly owe massive amounts to contractors for drilling at the abandoned Rozelle Leagues Club site.
He alleges that they are absolutely 100% busted and it looks like they will ask Wests Tigers to foot the bill for their gear.
The Wests Tigers might do so but the strong rumor is that they want the Balmain Juniors to come under the Wests Tigers umbrella and be called the Wests Tigers Juniors.
The same bloke told me that the Wests Magpies allegedly have not paid for their 2010 Gear and Blades refused to supply them for 2011, hence that is why they wear 'Carney Spaul' jersey's this year. The same bloke told me that he does not know where Wests DRLFC will get funding from to compete in 2012 or even to pay for the 2011 equipment.
Interesting interesting stuff.
This bloke is/was a stakeholder in both camps.
