Liverpool Home Ground?

[bathursttiger1]

The amount of cash our local member is pouring into Bathurst to shore up his profile we could well end up with a Bankwest Stadium here, the only problem is Panthers claim Bathurst as part of their junior area.

If not Bathurst, then Orange is suitably named for us haha.

Orange is the poor cousin ATM, due to the local member is a Shooters and Fishers.

Liverpool's a great idea if you fancy getting mugged after the game.

Gotta re-develop Leichhardt or Campbelltown if we're serious about a home ground. Liverpool is no- mans land when it comes to our fan base

Liverpool will be good for nothing when the NOISY planes from Badgerys Creek roll in !

Have you ever been to Leichhardt? What a ridicuous comment.

Was my 1st thought too lol, Planes just about land on LO

That’s part of the ambiance of the place

Agreed mate, no place I'd rather watch a game then LO.

Liverpool is a brilliant area for a club to be based at.

Enormous population. Fast growth. Not far from some schools producing future NRL stars.

if it eventuates, we should go all in and grab it with both hands and try and claim it as our own.

Yep, we need to start controlling the narrative on it now.

I thought you were sold on Bankwest ?

With social distancing pretty much the way of the future ANZ wins hands down

I'd be happy with BW, but apparently others are not, see I can take others thoughts into consideration.

The only problem with Wankwest is Parramatta are involve with it.

So we should get on the front foot now to ensure that the proposed stadium at Liverpool suits our needs.

No ones going to go to a game at Liverpool...fairdinkum ?

I WILL

Liverpool is not going to cut it, nor Campbelltown. It's Oran Park, Camden, Narellan - Group 6. Greenfield sites where the NRL with forward planning should have worked with the NSW Govt to ensure a stadium, COE for all sports was constructed. Lots of kiddies out there, boys and girls, wanting to play sport.

So you want to relocate to the extremities of Sydney's South West limited transport infrastructure at least Liverpool is basically half way from Campbelltown and Leichhardt.
Let me guess are you a new resident to Camden / Oran Park

Afraid orange is a fading colour to the Wests Tigers.

 

[innsaneink]

Living within COVID times is this really a valid proposal?
I am not a NSW resident although i am sure the club has great information with postcode data to get a good idea where supporters are based.
Personally i would not want to share with another club, has anything good come of Sharing Bankwest stadium for the games we have played there so far we have a record of 3 wins / 7 losses.
Rather have leichhardt redveloped and Cambelltown as our two stadiums to reflect the amalgamation of 2 prior clubs. Both stadiums currently state capacity $20k.

And forever be known as a joint venture club.

Great point.
Why are we always referred to as a JV & Saints Illawarra arent?
All our home grounds.

One...and only one full time home will go some way to seeing our identity move to a club in its own right, and our history and past where it belongs....way back then.

As long standing Tigers Member and resident of Liverpool, I take exception to your pig-ignorant comments about the city of Liverpool. As one of the fastest growing LGAs in NSW, including the proposed Aerotropolis and associated infrastructure and employment through the Badgery's Creek Airport, a new campus of Western Sydney University, and a renowned teaching and expanding Liverpool Hospital, Liverpool is a vibrant, dynamic and evolving city.

Furthermore, I would hazzard a guess that on a pro-rata basis (look it up on Google) Liverpool would have more Tigers fans than your sleepy hollow of academic elites in Balmain.

You would, no doubt, know that Wests Tigers Junior teams use a space at The Whitlam Centre at Liverpool as part of their strength and conditioning training programs.

Well ....you probably wouldn't know any of that. Just let the 1950s ambience of Balmian wash over your thinking and spew forth with ignorance through your keyboard.

Liverpool and surrounds is the future of Wests Tigers. A stadium here, even if shared with the Bulldogs, would go a long way to building a sense of identity and ownership of a footy team by its community.

Do yourself a favour and take that short walk from Balmain, down Darling St Rozelle, to Callan Park. Book yourself in there. And, do us all a favour and leave your laptop at home.

Wow, I've never seen someone defend Livo with such passion. A little long winded but A+ for effort. Good job

However, I personally didn't think it needed to be defended, by running down another mercilessly.

You (Tiger Tragic) virtually did what you were complaining about.

I think there's a signifcant difference between generalising about the demography of Balmain and the likelihood of being a victim of crime (being mugged) in Liverpool. You can't see the difference?

All I can see is that you both put crap on those two mentioned areas.

Let me guess are you a new resident to Camden / Oran Park

Oran Park is 14 km down the Northern Rd from Badgerys Creek Airport. A proposed south west rail link extension from Leppington to Badgerys creek is planned also a rail link to Campbelltown. There is a funding pledge for this plus a plan for express bus routes. No doubt road improvements and other infrastructure will be provided. Western Sydney residents will be in 30 min proximity to jobs by bus to the employment area near the airport.

With the Deputy Premier supportive of the NRL, there is an opportunity for a club to create a new future, whether that be WTs or a new or relocated club in what is a massive area of Sydney.

I live in Cronulla and would be happy if WTs stuck with the old Magpie and Balmain areas with the COE at Concord with games st Lidcombe and Leichhardt. There are lots of good juniors and corporate funding ?

I guess that is part of the problem when some people will only go to a ground that they want, everyone has a different view as what is best. Guess we better keep playing at 4 home grounds then.

This happened to me. When Wests moved to Campbo my commute went from 5mins to about 50 mins. But I did it every second week as there was no choice if you wanted to see your team play.
Once we started using ANZ, I went to all the games there and only the odd game at LO and CSS.

I don't think I can't ever wrap my head around using 3 grounds in one city. Would anyone think it would make sense for the cowboys to play some games at diary farmers?

I would love us to choose one ground, even if it is ANZ, I'll argue against ANZ until we make up our mind. I will still attend the games there, would just prefer a more appropriate ground for our needs.

 

[Jedi_Tiger]

have boutique games at LO and CSS the sydney teams guve us an advantage then pick a hone ground for remaining 8 games or so
please dont play any at tamworth etc

 

[Hangonaminute]

Just play every game at our spiritual home ground or fold as a club completely.
Any other ground will never feel like Home.

They folded two clubs WT'S do not have a spiritual homd ground heres the chance to get one.

We all know Leichhardt is the Tigers spiritual home ground, anyone who has been to a Campbelltown and Leichhardt home game has FELT it.

Build a new concrete jungle and it just won't be the same.
Long live Leichhardt

What about Wests?

Can only have 1 spiritual home ground, I love West's, but Leichhardt is where it's at

We are the Wests Tigers though?

Correct

I grew up as a Balmain fan and adore LO, but I believe it is time for one ground and as sad as it is for me that is not LO.

Probably the fact that it is the longest serving continous ground either side of the JV has been playing at.We do need 1 ground moving forward and it should be the olympic stadium as it is central for most of our supporter base

Thought something along the line a few years back in having a new stadium 30k built near the new airport. Would make the transport issues non existent.
Other teams would land and stay nearby the ground.
Logistically very effective and In an area that encompasses all of the south West.
