Liverpool Home Ground?

[gallagher]

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

I don't think Leichhardt or Campbelltown are options for this funding.

Liverpool would be WT'S ACT basically half way between Campbelltown and Leichhardt and if it did happen would a new beginning for WESTS TIGERS

Agreed mate, I think it would be great.

Playing out of Bulldogs stadium ? Think not ... rather the stadium at Moore pk !

Wests Tigers playing in the Eastern Suburbs again would be silly.

The club is an inner city club .. Balmain / Ashfield / Concord .. it is hard to understand !

So name change?

I wouldn't be against a complete re-brand of the club if we were to finally decide on a home venue. Whether that be Livo, Cambo or the Inner West.

As it stands we're a bit of a nomad club atm. Not fully embracing our Western footprint whilst clinging on to what's left of our retro era inner west links.

Having the training base at Concord and home grounds all over the shop says it all really

I honestly don't see why "*Not fully embracing our Western footprint whilst clinging on to what's left of our retro era inner west links*" is actually a problem. Why can't we have both? We don't need to choose between fibros and lattes, we can be fibros who drink lattes. Terrible analogy, but you know what I mean. I love the diversity of our fan base.

This is the exact problem I see with our greater fan base. There's still a deep rooted tribalism instead of a united front.

A good analogy for me is we're 'A man of many talents but a master of none'. Very conflicted identity.

I really don't care where our home venue would be, it's just that it would be nice to have a permanent one.

Each time we play at Campbelltown or Leichhardt, effectively half our fan base is cut off. Somewhere bang smack in the middle would be ideal and I'd have no problem making the trip

Yep, just pick one and absorb the backlash.

Still so early with all this chatter. We need to focus on our own aims and if this plan comes to fruition, cross that bridge when it comes. Right now we need to get our COE up and running, have some kind of resolution with Balmain leagues and re establish/improve pathways from MacArthur area juniors.

Ideally we’d play six games at Leichhardt and six at Campbelltown. Not possible atm, only time will tell if it will become so. Right now we have a deal with ANZ bankwest for four games a year until end of 2022, so plenty of water will flow under the bridge before and decision needs to be made.

Now is the exact time to be having this chatter, the club should be making a decision about what it wants while all this is in the planning. We need to be taking our thoughts and wants to the NRL on this issue during the planning stage so our needs are considered. Waiting for the stadium to be built is not proactive and will lead us to a result that doesn't benefit the club.

COE is totaly relevant
penrith dont have a COE at penrith and play at Manly. Why didnt they move the COE out at campbo then ?
West Ashfield wont move the ground permanently to liverpool or cambo qe are an inner cuty club 50 % and a cambo club 50 % Homebush is logical otherwise dobt build the COE in the first place

Now that ANZ is staying as is, I don't believe it should even be an option as it totally inappropriate for our purposes.

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

Souff's built theirs at Redfern and play at Homebush which is further than Concord to Liverpool ...

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

 

[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

That’s a good name for a re-brand.

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

You really need to start quoting who you are talking to

A couple of commas and fullstops wouldn’t go astray
