As long as the White is continuously neglected people have every right to complain. Sure you'd complain to if the shoe was on the other foot

The whites not neglected totally…maybe they do say black and gold more thats for sure....but thats the media not the club is it.

Mate i quite liked this years wests heritage jumper...wouldnt mind if we had something like that as a home jersey for a year...bit of orange would brighten it up a bit'.

As usual get bombarded to ah

Ink why should you tell me what i can say...well done for adding your 2 bobs worth and trolling ....you need to get off your high horse i think...you start with the childish name calling all the time....mirrors all broken at your joint

The club are the ones responsible for the merchandise. All Black and Gold, virtually zero White. As WTFL said look at the the stuff you find at Best and Less and any other department store. Look at the wristbands, sweatbands, hats and any other merchandise, The white is non exsistant, and that falls on the club

granto -SO i derailed it did i…get lost go away look above and thats before i said anything...like a pack of dogs on me the moment i say something....You just trolled then...unbelievable

Maybe im the only one that refuses to be bullied out of their opinion...look what happened to cqtiger in this post...got slammed because he dared to disagree

Yeah good point gnr4life i have noticed that part but i do have a white hat but that could be 2011 not sure.There must be a reason the club does this.
 
The mainly white polos must easily be the best seller

The rest look like garbage ,I think I have only bought 2 non white polos /dress shirts

Both the black 2006 numbers

Have I been posting in my sleep? I believe that this is my first post on this topic but I always get slammed when I disagree - which is pretty much always.

Whoever agreed on putting a magpie and a tiger are idiots (IMO).
You can only be referred to by one mascot.
As far as I can see Wests got the name and Balmain got the logo (and you must admit it's much stronger and more marketable logo).
That's where it should end or do we or we will finish up with the Balmain & Western Suburbs Magpie /Tigers?

Huh? Wests got "wests" balmain got the logo and the " tigers".

I always used to refer to the balmain tigers as " the tigers " as I know many did. **If you think balmain got nothing in the name your kidding yourself.**

Hello? I said they got the logo…it is a tiger.
Seems you want us to have a tiger on all our merchandise and be called the magpies?
There is zero refence on the playing strip to Balmain and most ex Balmain supporters have learned to live with that.
The bird on the other hand..... :unamused:

Is worth two in the bush?
 
Ha ha .. just back looking at this thread after a few well deserved beers and nothing has changed!(except for cqtiger getting confused for me)
As I said before , I have accepted the Maggie even though I think it's dopey to have two mascots on our jersey (not sure if the Dragons have a little Steeler man anywhere?)
The Wests side of this argument (well , not everyone) KEEP saying Balmain got EVERYTHING because it is their logo and they were called the tigers (gee , surprising they would have called them that)
Well , what part of 'WestsTigers' do you think doesn't have the word 'Balmain' in it?
Here is a clue… it is the opposite side of 'WestsTigers' that doesn't have the Magpie in it.
We can't be called both and the J/V was kind enough to still put the Maggie somewhere on the jersey ... be happy.
Once again there is zero reference to Balmain (and please don't say it's by association or you just talked your way out of why the Magpie is there).
You don't read countless threads demanding (or even suggesting) for the 'Balmain' inclusion yet every now and then the move the Maggie or make it bigger chorus starts and we all get caught up in it ... ho hum

one of our jerseys this year was almost completely white, and as helmsey pointed out, so was the members hat. i would've thought that best and less and other stores would order the tigers merchandise that they think will sell better, and if they think that that is the non-white stuff than that's not really WT fault

Yes.

I must be new here as im sure ive read and commented on this before (not this type of thread but this very same topic-the magpie). I, and I would guess/hope the majority of WT supporters have no issue with it being there. It's been there since day dot. But to argue on the size and/or placement of it is itself inherently divisive (word of the day) and just IMO a tad childish. It was on the sleeve on the original jerseys so that's where it should be and whatever size it was should be the same. If it has gotten smaller than it should be restored to what it was.

Yes, I went for balmain before the jv but always admired and readily accepted the maggies when we married, there wasnt many other teams I could say that about. Maybe the feeling isn't mutual but I can't change that. I agree with the sentiments above but only ever think about it when it is dragged up on here.

As I stated in a very similar thread I dont know if the old magpies boys and gals will ever be pleased, even in this thread it's jumped from the Maggie to the amount of white. Balmain lost out of the jv too, many things, but I never looked back and don't want to. Im a wests tigers man now and forever

Drop it completely. Who calls the team magpies anymore anyway. The team is wests tigers. We dropped balmain we should drop the bird. Simple. 10 years now. Time to let go. Least we have a club. Any bears fans here…

Like so many others, you completely miss the point. Who said the team should be called/ referred to as the magpies? Ive never seen equality in our merger, so to me these are interesting times ahead with the WSDRLFC developments. Have a lovely day.

What about those Lote hair braid things? those lounge chair seats they have on the sidelines? There might be some White merchandise out there, but it really is few and far between
