Wests Magpies Bundy Cup 2013

Yes.. I assume Fletcher will be coach for WT nsw cup team. Leo may want to return to magpies if there is no slot for him in WT.

Is the BRC and the NSW cup aligned?
I would think it wouldn't be too much to align all the home games with WT's Reserves.
The Maggies could essentially play for free… Only thing is they wouldn't generate any money from ticket sales or
catering... Which isn't really a step in the right direction either.
We need to get the Maggies up and running in thier own right again, If they are ever to return to NSW cup.
 
The BRC are not usually aligned with nsw cup days but some matches are. Campbelltown Stadium costs $2500 to rent for a non NRL game day. Magpies could piggy back of WT playing the 6 WT home games but that depends on schedules and draws.

Other options for grounds include the showground, st.gregs campus, uni campus and hillier oval. Nothing locked in yet.

Wenty do the combination quite well as far as game day and the NSWRL will try and make it work whereve possible.

Batboy do you think the Wests Magpies rejoining the NSW Cup is a realistic possibility ??
 
Realistically I dont think we will see NSW Cup within the next five years as I truly believe we will work towards a national reserve Grade competition
 
Hope your right Smeg

We need a proper stepping stone for the NYC players to the NRL in particular the forwards and the halves

Give them time to fill out and become attuned to playing against bigger, older and more experienced opposition
 
Of course it is…
The reality of the Situation is: (For whatever reason) Magpies lost thier major sponsor (Wests Ashfield)
If the Football club can get the brand up and marketable again (At ground level) And Nab a few "Local" Sponsors...
They will have no problems competing again... There's enough talent around to do it.
Shannon Gallant
Rocky Trimarchi
Stuart Flanagan - All playing group 6
Michael Crockett - Playing at the gong.
(Maybe they can even coax Kevvie Mc out of retirement...)
For the right money, there are plenty of quality players to choose from.
Without getting too much into it, (And starting a free for all)
I really feel the Magpies have died off from relying on the past to get them by.. A smarter idea would have been investing time, efforts and resources into building a solid foundation to ensure this didn't happen.
I am (And have been quite vocal) in my opinions about the progression of WT's.... But there is no reason the Magpies can't be a local power unto thier own, With a cult following to rival Newtown... They just have to do it properly!! Build the club (And it's fan base) Back up.
I have never wished harm to the club, And I still believe that a uniform WT's (at leagues club levels also) is the future... But there is no reason the Magpies can't still exist at a reasonable level in the West.

I feel NSW cup will become the local Sydney comp (Whatever it was called before)
Outside of the NRL all together… Maybe somewhere for Ressies to send thier Ressies to type thing.
 
Why couldn't the Bundy Cup side have fringe Wests Tigers NYC and NSW Cup players filter back through into the squad

The Broncos ,Cowboys and Titans do the same with using the Qld Cup teams as feeders

It would also help the Wests players with the exposure of playing with better quality players also
 
That was the arrangement with Concord Burwood United this season.

Limited access to players though in 2012 considering the players held back for NRL and thus NSW Cup having to hold back players just in case required. Maybe under a new coach it will improve but the biggest factor is injury

Then split them between both sides Smeg

We should be encouraging the Wests venture into Bundy Cup , not hindering it and turning it into the Magpies 2012 NSW Cup debacle

From a Wests supporters view (and which should of been a Wests Tigers view also ) that was embarassing and tragic for the club as a whole

We need to learn from the past mistakes

PS What I just said isn't a reason for a Wests v Balmain stink either PLEASE :brick:
 
WT NRL + WT NSW cup based at Concord

WT NYC + WSM bundy cup based at Campbelltown

If ARLC decide to change toyota cup from u20 to over 20yo (national nrl aligned reserve grade) then nsw cup would revert back to the old metro cup (replace bundy cup)

WT have promised to build a development centre in Campbelltown to house the NYC + wests juniors

WSM bundy cup side would take any 'overflow' players from WT NYC + WT NSW cup teams…

Concord deal was only for one season I believe. I am all for that deal being transferred to a Western Suburbs Bundy Cup team

Well said Batboy.

WSM bundy cup team confirmed for 2013

Initial Financial Grant provided by Ashfield.

Search is on for new coach and players for 2013 season.

Home ground(s) yet to be determined. Team may play as curtain raiser with WT NSW cup games at stand alone Campbelltown days.

Great to hear the Magpies will still be running around at senior footy level.
Come home Leo…
 
Wests are advertising for players on RLCM. They're quite late to market, as most of the cream of Bundy (new sponsor on the way with Bundy departure) are signed already. Perhaps if they get the WT fringe NSW Cup/NYC players it'll be a lot easier…

Id prefer the Magpies to be in the NSW Cup but this is the next best outcome.

Keeps the Magpies Club alive and provides a senior rep side for the South West of Sydney

So yeah, Sounds ok to me???

You may get your wish down the track. A reserve grade games that precedes the NRL game is a MUST for the future.
Accordingly, your Maggies may well play NSW Cup again!!!
 
Reply below from Wests admin to my query of where they will train/play…

Training Durant Oval, Warwick Farm, playing Campbelltown and Liverpool areas.
