Sounds good in principle Yoshi but don’t think it will happen. Certainly not in tandem and not alternatively with the Dogs just starting to hit their straps either.
I still think getting Meriton back on track to replace Brydens would certainly be beneficial ( and old Harry’s got quite a pile as well).
And I’d ask Harry to renovate both our grounds, with his contacts in the building industry I’m sure he would get the job done at the right price ( and quick as well).
2 Meriton Stadiums would fit the bill and sit ok with me !.

2nd richest in Australia with a cool 26.5b dollers. At 93 years young, hopefully Harry can help us out and leave his legacy with the club 😉.

Funny footy facts;
- Arthur Laundy, pub baron and major Dogs sponsor,was actually a long time Tigers supporter, and only got involved with Canterbury coz he was a mate of Dean Pay. Ironically the day he agreed to sign on as sponsor, Pay was sacked by the Board.
He said he was sick of the Dogs coming last so was advised by the Board the best thing he could do was hire Phil Gould.
Initial meeting was held at Percy’s Hotel opposite North Sydney Oval. Whilst Gould was involved with the Warriors at that time, he accepted the job at a club he knew and loved.
Gould then approached Ciraldo at Penrith but, at that stage, Ciraldo was in heavy negotiation with the Wests Tigers but eventually was totally underwhelmed by the people and systems at WT and when he met with the Laundys and Gould he felt much more comfortable.
So Dogs got a keen major sponsor, Gould and Ciraldo. Timing is everything eh !
Of course we had Brydens, Pascoe and little else, now I wonder why he chose the Dogs !!!

The late Gary Johnston of Jaycar fame was also a Wests Tigers supporter when he took the slot at the dogs around 2010-11.

pascoe treated Harry like a goose,pascoes n hap's dynamic was bizzare,fkn hope Richo pulls us out of the fire
 
I'd hope we could get a totally new, high profile well known sponsor on a great deal.
We've been with Triguboff/Merriton.before and while. I know it's just sponsorship/cash, I'd prefer something someone totally new and fresh. Triguboff seems more interested in Balmain more so then. WTs imo.
I want new sponsors... New board, new coaches, new jersey... We really need to turn, this place around and while some are more important than others ($5m is $5m either way regardless where it comes from)... We. Really need to start climbing the ladder starting from full time next Friday at Cambo... The new WTs begins then!

IF we somehow managed to get Sam Burgess as coach here oh my days, would we be in for something special! 🔥 Got the hallmarks of a special coach written all over him! 🙌🏾 As a player he’s my first forward I’d pick if I was choosing a team from any era to save my life! The toughest most inspirational player I have ever seen in my lifetime!
Imagine Sam as coach, players would run through brick walls for him. Exact reason why he’s been so successful in the SL🔥

No thanks.
He’s a turd.
 
Instead of chasing players who are being released by clubs because they're on big dollars and not living up to it, I'd prefer to chase players who are knocking on the door of first grade but can't get a run. Bugger Bird, Hunt and Horse off. Chase any other sharks prop, a butcher brother or even a Couchman instead. The dogs should also have a backrower available next year.

Sam Walker & Brandon Smith both gone for 9 months minimum...

Roosters cashed up. This will throw the transfer market into a bit of a frenzy in my opinion.

Best thing for us is won't be need a half or hooker.

It will throw the Roosters into a frenzy having to identify and recruit players to fill positions occupied by Walker and Smith. I'm not sure how bad Radley is but it didn't look good.
