CEO - Shane Richardson

[Lukic]

Good on Richo.

From a strictly footballing perspective, moving away from Campbelltown is a good idea. It's gotta be the worst home ground advantage in the comp.

We have a less than 40% win rate there. Compare it to Leichhardt where our win rate is over 55% (even more impressive considering WT as a club has an overall win rate in the low 40% range).

If we can improve the facilities at Ctown and actually get a home ground advantage, then great. But not good enough as things are.

30,000 capacity and better corporate facilities would understand why Richo would favour it, just play parra at LO for our home game

Just kick Parra out of the comp for everyones sake

They’re Rotten Cooked

Sorry, but what BS. In what universe is Cambo not NRL standard? It might not be CommBank or ACCOR but it’s not Lidcombe Oval either. Smells to me like he just wants an excuse to fit in more corporates.

Seats 18000 for a start.

Yes too small for a successful club that we want to be and the increasing population

Definitely needs more seats

 

[Rock Hopper Steve]

Definitely needs more seats

Wondering if 24k is enough for 10/20 years time, unless you could design the increased seating to go in stages to accommodate the future needs.

 

[rihannafan1]

Richo goes over there to run the NRL’s investment ?

Why Richo and not Blake Solly? Maybe they both go over there together?

 

[rihannafan1]

Think he is just jumping ship

lol why do you think that?

 

[Tom Shines]

Taxpayers eventually

Yes I kinda figured that … private companies don’t tend to put money into stadium upgrades ….
there are three taxpayer options to put up out money ….Council, State and Federal ,… Im having trouble picking a winner…lucky Richo is confident

That is the bare minimum in my opinion.

maybe..who can say now …. There would be zero chance of him going if it’s not happening though …

 

[Tiger_Fanatic3]

Move them to Adelaide

Somewhere in shark/crocodile infested waters

They serve no purpose

 

[BAGNF05]

The way I read todays news is, nobody will stump up the cash for Campbo so we’re headed to CommBank. Same tactic he used last year to get $40 million funding for Leichhardt.

Personally hope the govt come to the party as the South West is our logical future.

Good on him for having a crack. He’s as subtle as a sledgehammer haha

 

[Chunk]

Doesn't the soccer team, Macarthur, play there as well. So it's just not the Tigers to reap the rewards?

 

[jrtiger]

Where do the Magpies Matts and Ball squads train?
Theres a junior academy planned for Leumeah isnt there...is it going to be connected to the playing field?
I guess its irrevalent to those teams where 1st grade play...just thinking out loud

St Greg’s College currently, but will likely move to Eagle Vale High School once their elite sporting facility is set up.

permanently I anticipate they’ll end up at the Centre of Excellence that’s been drawn up for Campbelltown Stadium, pending what happens there.

personally I think it’s ideal. I’d much rather a sellout every week as opposed to 35k and a few empty seats.

we need our ground to be the 14th man on the field.

Maybe 20 years is a while away hard to predict how many seats needed then, you also can't be turning them away either.

Only shark pk would be worse and I havent been there for 20 years

If its the middle of winter and theres a hint of rain only died in the wool diehards would go as youre guaranteed to get wet

It needs a lot of work or its done
