Please refrain from personal attacks. If you disagree with something, attack the post and not the poster.

In my opinion the poster is asking for it…

Carry on I say...

Doesn't matter whether they ask for it or not, if you can't constructively argue a point without taking taking a potshot don't post it. Otherwise, don't feed the trolls.

Trolling won't be tolerated and neither will personal attacks on other posters. As CB said, stick to the topic and keep it constructive please.
 
Equity and Fairness in the JV is all I ask.

Wests Tigers colours are Black, White and Orange.

Someone please remind the WT of this.

They cant even get it right when they promised they would try and do so.

People like you and your constant whinging do nothing but divide the club.

You got the name Wests and play at Cambo and more.

Be happy and cop it on the chin, the Tiger is an awesome brand and should be marketed for the benefit of the Wests Tigers.

Besides if you think Balmain get a better deal,it probably reflects the strength of Balmain and its success compared to Wests.

You're lucky Wests still have any involvement in the NRL.

What strength of Balmain and its success are you talking about ? Give me an example ?

How am I dividing the JV ? I am the one who is trying to eliminate division by always requesting fairness in ALL operations. You are dividing it, not me pal.

Cant say it overwhelmingly represents the occasion.

The Wests Tigers advertising for this game that appears in the newspapers and the Wests Tigers opening web page is typical of management that isn't to keen to give too much away to the _'other side of the joint venture'_ as the Fib calls them.

So how do you think the WT have gone about advertising the Wests side of the JV for this game? In a game that is supposed to be celebrating the 61' grand final between Wests and St George, the Wests Tigers have typically chosen to advertise it in their own special way.

Yes folkes, the Wests Tigers will celebrate the Magpies by having the the Wests Tigers Logo imposed over a big bold **Black and Orange** Heritage Shield. :laughing:

Yes folks.

But it gets better. There is a lovely **Black and Orange** thick diagonal stripe going through the advertising logo.

Great stuff Wests Tigers. :laughing:

The one week where you get an opportunity to get it right, and you just cant resist but put another 'Balmain' tinge to it. Lets be consistant for the entire 26 weeks shall we.

Terrible terrible stuff. Makes me wonder how hard the Fib really fought for this game to remain on a Sunday for the Wests Magpies Celebrations to occur. :deadhorse:

Check out the advertising logo for the game below.

Time to sack the advertising guy I think.

Magpies are dead brother, the Tiger is the way of the future.

Thanks for the juniors by the way.

One NSW Cup team too, thanks.

The majority of the fans want it that way, get with the program

Wake up to yourself.
 
If we had all black jerseys with a orange stripe and a white stripe….bug would get the vernier caliper out just to make sure we haven't a half mil more.lol

Unfair would be not to give wests a heritage day at all.Get over it guys
 
Hey everyone we may not agree with what Bug says but he does have some good ideas on different subjects . And you've gotta love his passion for what he believes in . So lay off the personal attacks . I can see where you are coming from but I just don't think its that great a deal .
One question for you Bug ' if Wests had not of merged and they had died do you think you would support rugby league and a different club ?

That's a good question. I love Rugby League. It's like a disease. But if they died, I would have as well.

I love the Warriors and I love watching teams like Canberra play but deadset I would never go for anyone else. It would be like betraying your family.
 
I cant believe that with such an important game and with so much to talk about that some peanut is moaning about the lack of white in an ad! Really????

Hilarious!!!! Actually its more sad than hilarious…......

Your paranoia is amazing.

If you really cared about the Wests Tigers and the future you would support what the management is doing and the best way to market the club which is the 'Tiger' brand and colours.

Magpies are gone, as are Balmain, you just can't handle the fact that people associate the Tigers with Balmain…the Tiger. Tough!

Balmains strength compared to Wests is that majority of supporters from the 'old' clubs are Balmain, which is a fact.

And the fact that Wests have basically been on struggle street for the past thirty years.

Bug your passion is great but misguided.
 
The same cyclical BS arguments from the same people content on living in the past.

Wake up. Balmain and Western Suburbs ceased as entities in the top flight rugby league competition because they had administrators fixed on past glories and an outdated method of operation.

We have two very proud histories and they deserve a nod of respect but they should not dictate how the new, strong and financially viable and, as of this year, on target to make a profit regardless of Leagues Clubs grants.

The advertising for the Balmain heritage round was not aimed at die hard Balmain fossils and the Western Suburbs heritage round is not aimed at Magpies fossils. They are aimed squarely at Wests Tigers fans. That is the way it should always be

Well said Smeg, and if people want to try and hijack this thread and turn into a Wests V Balmain debacle, they'll be going on mod-preview.
 
This thread is about equity, fairness and the community perceptions of the WT brand and more so the lack of care by the WT if the community falsely perceive what that perception is.
 
There will come a time where Heritage Round will be about wearing a replica of our 2005 jersey and ailing the heroes of that year in claiming the maiden title of the Wests Tigers.

The only community perception of the Wests Tigers brand that matters is what people think of the Wests Tigers. We have become so significantly more than the parts combined to create us.

So I am clear though on what you mean what would you like the approach to have been in terms of marketing and jersey layout etc for this Fridays mtch Bug.

That way I may have a better idea of where you are coming from

Balmain were never better off than Wests,hence why they were forced to merge
you're the one who is misguided.Bug has said a thousand times all he's interested in is fairness and equility in how the JV is percieved to the general public,and there is still alwayz someone willing to shoot him down for it
yeah that seems fair :unamused:
