Exactly right.
I posted the correct channel which hes ignored just to be able to play victim

But to be fair, the response or lack of, from membership is not surprising considering what a shambles anything to with membership has been in the past and looks like it still is.

@TSP how about giving it a crack via the correct channel and if you still get the run around or are still not getting a satisfactory response, then by all means slam them hard, but at least give it a go.

That another NRL clubs membership team wants to converse and engage with non members while we won’t even talk to our own members is astonishing!

You mean like businesses offer deals to potential new customers that they don't offer existing customers, really astonishing 🙄

No, it’s a club. Clubs are different from businesses.

Clubs promote memberships and members are supposed to have privileges that non members don’t have.

Such as communication.

There's your first mistake, believing there is truly a difference, you're not one special individual just another customer like any other customer.

Respect to you Hankster, far better argument than the on line bullying im getting from others on this forum simply for sharing my experiences.

I’m waiting to see if the roosters keep their promises, so I can report back.

No comments from yiu on the correct way to go about your endeavour thats been pointed out a couple of times to you?

That’s what the club holds out to people.

It’s at their feet.

If you are saying they are misleading people you’re correct.

It’s up to the club to answer a sponsorship enquiry from a current paid up member.

They’ve chosen not to.

It’s not for me to run around after them to get them to do something they should have done straight away.

And if they can’t even manage this simple task, I’m thinking they’d probably screw up a sponsorship arrangement too.

 

[liltiger]

Holman Barnes Group gave the Wests Tigers a $1.7m Grant last year and $1.5m in 23. The Bulldogs Leagues Club by comparison gave the Dogs $7.3m last year and $6m in 23.

How can we compete?

Im.quoting this to.preserve the ridiculousness of it and in.case you come to your senses and edit it.

This proves just what your agendas all about...quite sad really.

We all know the club has many many areas it can improve on...no need to fabricate things

no serious supporter of this club would throw their money at the roosters . Yet i applaud your tenacity in showing up WTs for its lack of professionalism

Was reading somewhere that Hbg as owners of the Wests Tigers are responsible for covering any shortfall in the Wests Tigers budget as their priority. Correct me if I'm wrong, there are many more people here who understand more about the situation. But I'd assume as an owner you would want to just provide more than just the shortfall to balance the books, if iv understood it right and HBG believe that as owners that's their responsibility covered, we need to privatise asap and run, run as far away from them as possible. No way any other leagues club who owns a team gives enough funding to just keep the books balanced. If I'm correct it shows me the HBG, Wests Campbelltown and Balmain Leagues are all totally incompetent and havnt got the slightest clue what they're doing with us.

 

[lathami]

You lost me at homebush... If we made that a home ground id never go watch on principle alone. Its a complete hole and has no atmosphere.. commbank I can get behind though

Alliance for me hate parra stadium, dumb move by the government, putting it there. Lidcombe would have been perfect no real ownership central and on the main train line.

No, didn't say they are misleading people, that is solely your interpretation, more so you are misleading yourself and not being realistic if you believe there is a real difference between the practices.

At the end of the day they are both businesses and you are not special to get any special treatment, particularly as (you yourself have indicated from your own postings) you have presented yourself via emails that you may be considered a serial pest to the club, or using the more modern analogy a.k.a a Karen.

To be fair, how much money does the dogs club make in comparison to the HBG?? Otherwise it’s a useless, unfair comparison, just cherry picking the numbers that suit your agenda! E. G. Dogs club makes 30 million profit per year, it’s easy to give 7 million across.

Canterbury Leagues had $98m in Revenue in 2024, with $6m profit.

HBG had $87m in Revenue with $7m profit.

 

[cktiger]

The Wests Tigers have been playing there these past 4 years … If the Wests Magpies haven’t been and it’s a matter money ..then that should be taken up with those that control the purse strings

The simple answer is most old Maggie supporters (especially the ones who prefer watching them to WestsTigers) relate to Lidcombe and not Campbelltown as their home.
Even they don’t want to go Campbelltown.
I’m nearly 70 and, in my mind, that’s what I would consider their home as well.
Saw plenty of games there and had some mates playing for them there.

how much you make /spend doesn't need to correlate

Yeah I guess my question is how many clubs are at break even
I think in the past from memory ( pre Dolphins and pre Covid ) there was 4 or 5 clubs

NRL Clubs compared to businesses are different. If you are unable to distinguish between the two, that’s a matter for you.

You can make unnecessary and unkind inferences about me personally, but it tends to portray you quite poorly and you are speculating.

I’m just presenting facts and that is that a members email has been ignored and along with it, an opportunity for a nrlw player to be sponsored.

It’s a personal experience I’m sharing with the forum.
