Kerry Hemsly

[tiger_j]

The point of this thread was not to start a magpies ,tigers garbage thread. I was simply stating it was great to see characters like Kerry at games. He goes to games because he loves the game not because he is paid to go or to talk bs to fans. I have seen him at campbelltown stadium and I have also seen him at the SFS and homebush. Point being he don't care were he watches his footy.

It's about doing things for the people who pay to get in. I'm not suggesting they over do it but a hell of a lot of people enjoy watching old players parade around the ground. It's not their fault their clubs don't exist in the NRL anymore. What are they supposed to do? Never get acknowledged ever again? People on this forum would know I'm not one to wallow in the past but you can't ignore it completely either.

If it does nothing to you I suggest you use the time to attend to other business.

I agree with tigermainiac.

We have heritage round for all things Magpies and Balmain.

The rest of the time we need to leeave those oldies alone in their in their retirement homes.
We as Wests Tigers have grown up….we need to forge our own identity not keep stepping back and holding mum and dads hand.

We should wear the inaugural WTs jersey for heritage round.

I remember Humpty saying something about ''letting go of the past to an extent'' when discussing the jerseys....so much for that idea huh?

But it's okay when the Magpies run a merchandise stall??

What the hell are you talkin about?

Couldn't agree more …. Looks completely out of place having a Magpies merchandise stand out there.
It's almost like they are trying to make a rebellious statement.

:brick: :brick:
Whaddya suggest Bob they just pretend they dont exist even tho they do, pack up & boot off right on full time….just to save you from embarrasment?

If they're playing in NSW cup, whats the problem Yoss? why can't merchandise be sold at the ground that that brand is running around at? should we pretend they don't exsist? its not like theres a Magpie stand at Leichardt with BRET running around

That's not what I'm saying. I've got no problem with the stand I was pointing out that you either allow this sort of thing or you don't. Personally I'm all for the Magpies running a stand at Campo games like I'm for recognising old Balmain and Wests players at the right level.

We need former WT at our games. WTs

Totally agreed Ink, it's about time we we used inaugural Wests Tigers jerseys for heritage rounds and use players like O'Neil, Skando, Hodgo, Ken McGuiness, Darren Senter and Ben Galea to promote Wests Tigers games instead of old Balmain and Wests players.

Be a little while before the club can use Ben Galea & Brett Hodgson in any form of promotion as they are still playing very good footy in the ESL, however Hodgo hurt his knee for Warrington overnight against Leeds after kicking 5 goals.

It was a Magpies home game….nothing to do with WTs and them using old players
Totally different scenario
