I'm not sure about the technical issues that were a pain for those who tried to watch it live. I just watched it on the website.

I must admit I was intrigued by the interaction between Pascoe and Maguire. It seemed to be mutually respectful and that can't be a bad thing for the stability of the club.

For mine, they seemed to be clear about expectations of future success and respectful of the diverse parts of the WT family. I found it positive, confident and affirming.

100% with you
 
Chill bud, firstly. Pascoe mentioned in response to that question that if the crowd / fan interest is greater than 30,000 it could be moved to ANZ. He did not say we will most certainly not play Parra at BankWest which mind you probably a lot of fans were hoping for.
Chances are your BankWest Ticket for that game will be transferable to ANZ. It appears you don’t pay attention to all the information, the NSW Government ‘venues live’ run both stadiums so it shouldn’t be too much of a hassle.
As far as deciding not to be part of a 50,000 crowd as we’ve had for past Easter Monday games well that’s your decision but certainly something I won’t miss.
As far as the graveyard that BankWest is for us on the playing field, I do agree with you we need to man up, we did win one home game there and possibly should have won 2. It can be done and i think the Parramatta home ground lustre will wear off once the football season has finished and WSW have fully taken the ground as their own. The NRL will have 4 teams possibly 6 playing some games out of that ground next year. (Roosters and Panthers have expressed interest)
 
@Needaname One of the Leichhardt games can go to ANZ to play Parra easily fixed !This should be interesting ....So if getting the biggest crowd is paramount why were there tens of thousands locked out off Leichhardt.... can not have it both ways just when it suits !

Perhaps because Venues NSW gets to cherrypick the games it tips in for...?
 
@Snake
I think you and I both know that the decision to play that game at Leichhardt even after an unexpected surge of interest had less to do with winning a match and or attracting the highest crowd and more to do with being a favourite location for a fairytale ending for certain personnel.
 
following up on what I was saying.
There is also the Magic round which we gave up a home game for last year. So that game could be the Parra Easter Monday game at ANZ which leaves 4 games for BankWest.
Also in mentioning the Roosters could move some games to BankWest .
The smart / successful clubs see value in taking their opposition on head on.
I can see the Roosters taking their home game to Parramatta to play Parramatta.
Why because your likely to get fans of that side interested if you embarrass the home team. Also you know you’ve got a guaranteed 15 to 20k of Parra fans paying to be part of your home game.

Madge said it best, how do we improve our home ground advantage and making a fortress? ‘By Winning!’

@gallagher mate who said anything about 4 home grounds he spoke about maybe moving the Para game away to anz most on this forum thought it was crazy to play them at bank west anyway so in your eyes he can do or say anything right

LO, CSS, Bankwest and now ANZ. That's 4 isn't it?

You forgot Tamworth unless we are not playing there again so that is 5.

I am pretty sure the Easter Monday game (if that is in the draw next year) has averaged in excess of 30,000 and so not playing it at a bigger stadium would likely bring out the whingers that complained that they were locked out of the last round at Leichhardt this year.

Unless those whingers only show up to big events, and will spend most weekends (and other days) sitting at their keyboard bagging the club for anything that does not meet their expectations.

@gallagher & @Snake I think that you are among the biggest supporters of lets ~~merge with~~ move every game to Parramatta so not surprised to see you getting your knickers in a knot about games being moved away from there.

I'm just after 1 venue these days. It's not that hard, seriously. 4 in 1 city, moronic.
 
So they're moving into demountables while Concords Demolished.... Where will these demountables be and where will we train?

How about we take the Bankwest games to Leichhardt.

Then we could get the fans to the game that really want to be there - the non members and those that didn't buy tickets early then deserve to miss out.

These comments are just as relevant imo.

St Luke’s I assume they said it’s across the road. Just wait for the player welfare stories when we train out of demountables.
 
@TYGA

Manly already does down at Narrabeen - remember the story of a certain coach who had to supply his own chairs!

There’s nothing wrong with criticism. I raised my eyebrows quite a few times mainly because the guys making this broadcast are supposed to be qualified IT/media employees of the club. Maybe we got the ninth best there, too.

I'll say it again, does anyone know for sure if any NRL club at all is doing live Q&As?

Criticism is fine, but the overboard nonsense about lack of professionalism. Avo on toast even says if you can't be perfect, don't bother. Hogwash. For all we know they might be paying these media boys $65K per year. I don't suppose Tigers are investing millions in top-end audiovisual gear, data streaming services, tech specialists etc.

Have a think about every single media and internet event you've ever been a part of and how many of those have issues. I've barely had a webex in my life where someone wasn't cutting out or dropping off the line.

Don't put words in my mouth to suit your agenda. I said professional, not perfect. I don't think that's a big ask for what is (supposedly) a professional organisation.

Well enlighten us the difference between perfect and professional. How many wobbles can you have and still be professional? How many audio drops are within the boundaries of a professional effort?

They got the whole thing onto web streaming, organised the head coach and CEO to sit down from their busy schedules. All seems pretty professional so far. I assume they are doing this as their profession, i.e. they get paid.

Because you use the word "professional" with some intended meaning of polish or quality, but it's a misuse of the word. If those blokes are being paid a buck, then it's professional output. If I clean windows with an oily rag and get paid for it, technically I am a professional window cleaner, even if it's not a great job.

I have no agenda.
