Looks good

would love the new SFS
Roosters don't have fans anyway and we don't have a opposition leagues club right next door and close to public transport

Except it is in the Eastern Suburbs

It’s on the outskirts of the CBD, a long way from the water.

It is in the Eastern Suburbs though, no denying it.

Irrelevant

I disagree, I think it is stupid for a club that is called Wests (named for being Western Suburbs) to have their home ground in the Eastern Suburbs. People complain about not having an identity then propose options to muddy that identity more.

we are West of the CBD
Wests tigers

The SFS isn't Wests of the CBD?

no but wests tigers are and the COE is West of the cbd so we can be anywhere in Sydney in theory
we would be silly not to look at a really good stadium with public transport and no fan base in the Roosters

I would much prefer Liverpool over the SFS or ANZ

I don't want to share with Bulldogs we will be the poor cousin
ANZ would be the sensible option if not SFS

ANZ is a hole

So is Liverpool.

Get bashed in the car park at Liverpool

Probably. You'd want to dress down (Tigers jersey) and leave your wallet at home.

Never been there … never had to ?
Heard stories ..mainly on the 6pm news

Like tonight. A fight in the KFC carpark over a parking spot.

get robbed on the way in to the ground or come back from watch a 30 -0 flogging and see no tyres on your car

Redfern used to be like that is that why Souffs don't play there anymore?

I think campbletown if you had to at least might work Liverpool is not a desirable destination to go see games like Belmore is not either

Campbeltown isn't desirable either.

It's Leumeah one of the only grounds that has a rail connection on its door step a Leagues club 50 m from the entrance and easy access to M5 and M7 road networks

Yeah it would be great if it was redeveloped, it ticks all the boxes. Unfortunately I can't see it happening. Basically it is an Labor electorate and won't get the funding needed from this State Govt.


Unfortunately it does not tick any boxes for me. There in lays the problem ....... no ground will tick all the boxes for all the supporters, we all have wants and realistically there is no simple solution. Personally I think they missed a huge opportunity by not redeveloping Concord into a 20,000 seat stadium. We are a very diverse supporter base which needs to be catered for. So good luck to the board in sorting that one out. My short term solution would be to play half our games at ANZ and Campbelltown until they make a decision, but a long term decision must be made soon otherwise we will be going to Brisbane to watch a home game!

Stadiums need to be at least 30000 capacity any less makes it elitist when it comes to block buster games when only the entitled get the opportunity to attend

My short term solution would be to play half our games at ANZ and Campbelltown until they make a decision, but a long term decision must be made soon otherwise we will be going to Brisbane to watch a home game!

Stadiums need to be at least 30000 capacity any less makes it elitist when it comes to block buster games when only the entitled get the opportunity to attend

you mean season ticket holders who pay for a seat that is the benefit of being a member I guess
 
I would like to get other people's opinion here, but does it make sense to have a COE in Concord but play or games elsewhere.

I am not business savvy, and I know Parramatta Rd is a crap fight in the best of times, but shouldn't we have upgraded Concord Oval and made it our home as well.

I don't know too much about infrastructure projects, but isn't the lightrail being built near there.

Anyway, I know some will shoot me down and that's okay.

We arent paying for the Concord COE so its a hard sell to get someone to build it for you.

Looks good

would love the new SFS
Roosters don't have fans anyway and we don't have a opposition leagues club right next door and close to public transport

Except it is in the Eastern Suburbs

and bankwest is in Parramatta so what
Liverpool would be shared with Dogs anyway
we were at sfs once
go back there at least now it is a quality stadium and transport

We are called Wests Tigers and it would be stupid to play in the East. Liverpool is in our catchment area.

Would it be true to say you are anti-SFS as much due to your personal geography as the concept of it being "in the Eastern Suburbs"?

The SFS is truly almost in the CBD, and only a stone's throw from South Sydney. I personally don't see it as some Eastern Suburbs stronghold. I mean, Souths play at Homebush and there's nothing "South" about Olympic Park at all.

No, I would attend all games there as I have done in the past. If it was about geography for me I would choose ANZ but that is my last option. I honestly don't care what Souths do as I don't support them so to me that is an irrelevant argument.

It's relevant when you start talking about the name of the club having a direct bearing on where they should play football.

It’s on the outskirts of the CBD, a long way from the water.

It is in the Eastern Suburbs though, no denying it.

Irrelevant

I disagree, I think it is stupid for a club that is called Wests (named for being Western Suburbs) to have their home ground in the Eastern Suburbs. People complain about not having an identity then propose options to muddy that identity more.

we are West of the CBD
Wests tigers

The SFS isn't Wests of the CBD?

no but wests tigers are and the COE is West of the cbd so we can be anywhere in Sydney in theory
we would be silly not to look at a really good stadium with public transport and no fan base in the Roosters

I would much prefer Liverpool over the SFS or ANZ

I don't want to share with Bulldogs we will be the poor cousin
ANZ would be the sensible option if not SFS

ANZ is a hole

So is Liverpool.

Get bashed in the car park at Liverpool
Probably. You'd want to dress down (Tigers jersey) and leave your wallet at home.

Never been there … never had to ?
Heard stories ..mainly on the 6pm news

Like tonight. A fight in the KFC carpark over a parking spot.

get robbed on the way in to the ground or come back from watch a 30 -0 flogging and see no tyres on your car

Mate, I live 5 minutes from there. If ever you are in the area, call me up and I’ll come look after you.

Do you drive a white Audi ?

I'd be more than a little interested in Tigers copying some of the STUPIDLY SUCCESSFUL things Rabbits have done in the last decade. I still yearn for the days, about 20 years worth, when Rabbits were always the laughing stock you could look at when Balmain / Wests were doing badly.

You can't deny Souths have been innovative and successful the past 10 years - the private/public ownership model with fans able to buy in, competition-leading membership numbers, strategic blend of top-tier purchases and durable juniors, ability to get the best out of previously untapped players (Cook, Cody Walker, Junior Tatola).

I know a lot of people hate Souths, but knowing my BIL for such a long time, he's a good dude and such a passionate Souths fan - basically a Tigers fan in a different jumper. They are a respectable club now, and when they weren't respectable, you could at least pity them for how bad they were.
 
The state government will have to redevelop Homebush eventually, they won’t let it crumble away to a wreck, and that’s where our answer lies in my opinion.

It ticks all the boxes geographically, transport wise and from a heritage point of view. It’s also close to Concord.

I’d be prepared to play the long game and play the majority of our games there while we wait for redevelopment.

You would not base your home ground on the extremities of your own area we are Wests Tigers and need a home in your own catchment LO would they get approval to increase the capacity I DOUBT IT.
STADIUM AUSTRALIA it there its ready to go.
NEW LIVERPOOL STADIUM ?????? I think would be the ideal place almost smack in the middle of our catchment
CSS depending on what the plans are with the new A league and redevelopment we may of missed the boat there.
So we need to make a decision and it's a BUSINESS DECISION not one based on sentiment what ever decision is made it will take us deep into WT'S future and at the moment we have people who can make a BUSINESS DECISION especially now we are in a positive financial position.

We all can sit in the Terry Lamb or Mortimer stands .. don’t want WSS as you share with PARRA but OK sharing with the Dogs which will be there stadium there land so how is that any different… the actually place that is the best situated for all of the Sydney basin Tigers supporters is WSS! Go figure .,

so true
Liverpool Stadium
Terry Lamb Stand
Steve Mortimer Stand
Bullfrog Moore Function Room

You are just making stuff up.

I’ve lost count how many times I have tried to explain to him that where the stadium would be, behind the Whitlam Centre, is Tiger territory and Bulldog territory isn’t till you go over the bridge down towards Moorebank. Dude does not comprehend.

As a Liverpool local, I walk that parkland and sporting ground area most days and think what a huge expanse of land it is and its potential to host a great stadium at some stage in the future.

And as @GNR4LIFE said its apparently in an area classified as Wests Tigers territory, so We will be the major tenant the same as Parra is at WSS, with The Dogs playing 2nd fiddle to Us.

I think campbletown if you had to at least might work Liverpool is not a desirable destination to go see games like Belmore is not either

Campbeltown isn't desirable either.

It's Leumeah one of the only grounds that has a rail connection on its door step a Leagues club 50 m from the entrance and easy access to M5 and M7 road networks

Yeah it would be great if it was redeveloped, it ticks all the boxes. Unfortunately I can't see it happening. Basically it is an Labor electorate and won't get the funding needed from this State Govt.


Unfortunately it does not tick any boxes for me. There in lays the problem ....... no ground will tick all the boxes for all the supporters, we all have wants and realistically there is no simple solution. Personally I think they missed a huge opportunity by not redeveloping Concord into a 20,000 seat stadium. We are a very diverse supporter base which needs to be catered for. So good luck to the board in sorting that one out. My short term solution would be to play half our games at ANZ and Campbelltown until they make a decision, but a long term decision must be made soon otherwise we will be going to Brisbane to watch a home game!

Stadiums need to be at least 30000 capacity any less makes it elitist when it comes to block buster games when only the entitled get the opportunity to attend

I reckon a 20k seating capacity would be great @Elderslie_Tiger .
Obviously a lot cheaper to build than a 30k capacity.
The ground would be nearly full of fully full? every game giving great atmosphere.
And if you class Wests Tigers members as entitled, well there's nothing wrong with that.

I would like to get other people's opinion here, but does it make sense to have a COE in Concord but play or games elsewhere.

I am not business savvy, and I know Parramatta Rd is a crap fight in the best of times, but shouldn't we have upgraded Concord Oval and made it our home as well.

I don't know too much about infrastructure projects, but isn't the lightrail being built near there.

Anyway, I know some will shoot me down and that's okay.

It seems totally ridiculous to me @tiggerfan007 to have the COE at Concord and then maybe our home ground at L'pool or Leumah.
A 20k stadium at Concord would have been great.
