Watching benny on nrl 360 it is all due to the fact Balmain have no influence. His relos (Moses x2) are smart people that should influence the club. He can probably see $$ in relocating the club to Perth with his mining mate Sage.
Sironen slagging off JT and the club in tomorrow's paper. If he is talking about expectations and entitlement, it is a shame he did not install the same in his son.
Quality blokes both these men, they should be banned from the club
 
Sironen is a good man his family were treated badly. Done a lot for Balmain and JT is a piece of work surprised he didn't flatten him.

Please. His son is the biggest blugger ever to put on our jersey. I can understand the outcry for Farah, even if I don't share the same opinion. But what reason does Siro have to feel slighted. He was enjoying a free ride. I'll always be greatful that JT sent that imposter on his way.

Sirro is my sporting idol, but his son was a waste of space for us.

Crapping on him through the papers is gutless too.

I would have sent him packing also I was referring to the way he was sacked after giving many years to the club because of a Brian Smith review.

He's not acting like much of a good man by coming out and publicly pissing on a bloke that's just been sacked.

Thats life. People are let go from jobs all the time for organisational reasons. Why should employees of football clubs be panda bears?
 
I'm sure both Benny and Paul are glad that Mr Bean is gone. I don't think they expect much say in the operational decisions but if any one is entitled to two cents it sure is these guys. Keeping a lid on it after what the club had been through in recent times ain't going to happen. Whether it's blocka, Benny, siro, brasher, pearce, jack or who ever i want to hear their opinions. Please some one pass the tissues to Mr Bean.

Benny is not entitled to 2 cents, he's already taken the Tigers for an absolute mint.

Certainly their influence needs to be eradicated, once and for all. Having Elias, Sirro and Roach et al sniffing around and bleating their disapproval for all these years, has severely damaged this mentality of this club. You'd swear they wanted it to fail!
 
I'm sure JT being an ex Magpie had nothing to do with these ex players disdain. I mean we seen tonight Benny unload on the Wests board. I sense a bit of jealousy that Balmain don't have equal footing. The ironic part in that is that's Benny's fault!!!

100% spot on. Both Elias and Sironen are parasites. I hated them before the merge and I hate them still.
 
I have no issue with ex players having their two cents worth.

But thats all its really worth to be honest.

And it should be done in a respectful way, no point kicking a bloke or a club when its down….in saying that the way Farah was treated was pretty appalling and JT and some parts of the WT board have blood on their hands over that issue...

.....but thats footy...you lie and die by your results....everyone does.

Paul Keating said...in politics everyone leaves in a coffin....footy's a bit like that too.
 
Backdoor Benny was embarrassing on NRL360 trying to blame Wests magpies and why sterlo gives blocker oxygen on his show is questionable. At least the media has dropped off Tommy now when they need a stupid comment…they have so many options at Balmain who are more than happy to make a goose of themselves.
 
Especially funny when Benny forgets why Balmain are in the quagmire they find themselves as well. And that's coming from someone who was a Balmain fan.

Roach and Elias should be blacklisted, and if Sirro continues to have a sad over the club moving on his underperforming son he should be as well.

99% of coaches are sacked. Look around the competition. Only Bennett, Bellamy and maybe Hasler will have the ability to leave on their own terms. The rest, regardless of how well they are traveling now will be sacked. It's the most thankless job in the game. Well that and refereeing.

To be fair, the Magpies don't have any greats to go to for comment.
I can't think of one beside TR but I think he sets of smoke alarms everywhere he goes and is a rambling boofhead.
 
Sirro has every right to have a laugh at JT. He poured half his life into Balmain/Wests Tigers and helping the juniors.

JT went straight in in 2014 and sacked Sirro without even talking to him. Then Sacked his son (who has useless)

So as Sirro said, Karma is a …....

No drama with what he said. If someone sacked you and your son you would be laughing at them too.\

Benny Elias, the less said the better. Just ranted and raved. Irony wasn't lost on most Tigers fans.

Well, none that want to interfere all the time anyway :wink:
