Just to add as well, I think the fact people seem to simply see an agenda attached to this idea further highlights the issue we have. **Any idea which comes out of either side is only seen as something with an agenda or ulterior motive,** so why not make it more independent so we can move forward?

As is the case with the Joe Thomas appointment

not too qualified on this matter and i can only comment on what i've read on here, but i see people are thinking of splitting them from the grassroots.. the juniors. imo that's not the way to do it.

the changes need to be made from the top.. afaik the board consists of 5 Balmain and 5 Magpies which needs to be changed to 10 WT board members. that's where the changes need to be made if you wanna make the changes.

the other option is to not make any changes at all.. this process however could take years to give us an identity, but pretty sure in the end it will give us a WT identity.

Its actually 5 balmain , 3 ashfield, 1 campbelltown and 1 magpies pretty sure WT would not like to see ashfield or campbelltown abandon the JV nor not have a say in where there money and support is going.

What a mess

![](http://www.toonarific.com/pics_root//00001311/fracturedfairytaleslogo.jpg)
 
Hang on.

There is only one side of the JV who aren't happy.

And with no reason, everything has been 50/50 since day one but Wests still don't like it.

Its not biased to say that one of the main strengths of the WT is the tiger brand. This should be marketed as much as possible. It also brings in the corporate dollar.

And has there been any evidence that it would be better to make the west our home…...Campbo can't even get a full house.

Hey the day they sell out that place reguarly I'll be happy to have more games out there.

I have been behind thet JV from the beginning and I support whats best for the JV. There is massive support from the inner city and the Tiger brand...lets embrace it.

LOL…someone saw no state cup games last year
BRET had first graders.
Wests had park players

ANother example of Wests holding the JV back.

Its what was best for the JV but the Magpies couldn't accept it.

Wow… How could you say you support the JV with the anti wests attitude?

The tiger mascot is popular just like it was for balmain... Keep in perspective also that The magpies brand (collingwood afl variety) is most followed football brand in Australia

ofcourse Original Wests fans feel disheartened by WT when its perceived by many as an extension of Balmain. Same goes for south west sydney getting 4 poorly scheduled nrl games a year?

Campbelltown has had a slightly higher crowd average in last 2 years compared to leichhardt oval so your argument is flawed. If you have been following this forum you will also notice that leichhardt oval days are numbered for nrl.

6 x SFS + 6 x campbelltown is a possibility for the 2014 or 2015 season.

You are obviously new to this forum.

Troll
 
Lets face it, what smart business decision have Wests made in the past 40 years.

Moved to Lidcombe…failed

Moved to Campbo....fail we are all still waitng for the so called boom.

A few of semi finals appearances in the past 40 years.

A handful of rep players.

Terrible sponsorhip dollars.

Etc, etc

The only smart move was joining up with Balmain.

And here they are still making dumb ass decisions.

Its time to move forward, like Trodden said a new structure is required, not some old dinosaur perspective of the 1970's
 
Let it never be said that the instigators of these arguments are only ever ''whinging Magpies''. Its quite obvious who is responsible for hijacking this thread, and he isn't an ex-Magpie

The troll has had a feast today
 
You said its been 50/50 since day one
I proved you wrong, and youve ignored that point since, as all trolls tend to do
 
Alrighty, so several more posts have been deleted and if there are any more trolling comments added to this thread, the offending user goes on mod preview.
 
people are coming from both sides of this , let them get it out of their system , willow if you cant handle the debates or comments why dont you stay away from this , the reason it keeps coming up is people like you close it down , i have been involved with this type of thread before and i dont bother now , we have a joint venture team , but the people from both balmain and wests who still feel for there teams are not going away no matter what you think , if its gutter style of foul yes but not people who are having their say , it will run out of steam as a thread if you simply let it go ,

People can tell me if i'm wrong… but this only happened because everyone could not agree to move to the WT state cup team in time for last year... yes?

Now we are moving to the WT state cup team & it seems everyone is still not happy.

One interesting question for everyone if Wests Magpies field a team in state cup and come up against WT, who will people be cheering for?

Trolling is against forum rules andrew474, in case you aren't aware of the rules. It creates arguments and personal attacks on people and it's not going fly here.
 
debate and arguments are 2 different things , if its personal delete that persons one , but you close it down , like i said you will need another 30 years before this type of thing is gone , older supporters from both sides wont let it go, some have and good on them but you still have a group that wont
 
If you put Wests or Balmain ahead of the WT's then you are backing the wrong horse.

The WT's brand is now worth 10x what either Balmain or Wests (Magpie) is worth.

Get on board the winning team people, let's grow stronger and win more premierships…that's the goal!
