I wonder what’s planned for Leichardt Oval?

Mayor Darcy Byrne says he has been in talks about an upgrade.


It won’t get any cash from the government because it’s too close to SFS rebuild, and ANZ.
WT best chance is a new stadium at Campbelltown, hopefully seating more than 20,000 people.

Campbletown would be a disaster for the club full time
Pull curtains on the top leave of ANZ use that
Zouths are using ANZ next year we should have too
Hopefully we take the new SFS they will need tenn ants

I didn't say anything about using Campbelltown as a fulltime venue.

SFS WOULD BE THE LAST PLACE FOR WTS TO GO

Can't agree with that. The SFS is only 10 minutes away from Wests Ashfield and 20 minutes from the COE. A perfect location with 45K capacity.

Except it is in the Eastern Suburbs.


I know you don't like it @cochise but it really it ticks all the boxes.

Except being in the Eastern Suburbs lol


You mean the outskirts of the city that is easy to get to. 20 minute walk from Central or 7 minutes by bus. Its not at the beach.

Yes in the Eastern Suburbs, it only takes 20 mins to drive to Bondi Beach from the city. It's not like the Eastern Suburbs are huge but the SFS is in the Eastern Subrurbs

Who cares what LGA it is in. We'll never agree on this one.

Because we are a team called Wests that shouldn't be playing in the Eastern Suburbs.

No different than wearing black and being called Tigers.

Yes, Yes and I don't care if there are red and green rabbits - I'm talking about a real NRL Club.

Tigers have black stripes

And white parts as well.

That's right - one black stripe to cover the whole Tiger.

It's only a name not a location.

No its a location


The perhaps we should be playing out of Pratten Park or Lidcombe Oval then !!!

Well they are in the West, but there are stadiums that are more appropriate in the West. To be honest a Wests Tigers team playing in the Eastern Suburbs just continues to promote a confused identity.


Only for a very few. The greater public wouldn't care.

In your opinion. We already have a very confused identity. For a club like ours, consistency of jersey, home ground and celebration of the club history is crucially important.


We are not the Western Suburbs Magpies nor are we Balmain. It's Wests Tigers by name which has nothing to do with any location.

With great respect @mike...you have mentioned one of the greatest stumbling blocks our Wests Tigers has.

"Wests Tigers by name WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LOCATION" due to the fact 'We don't have a location'.

I think We are the only team in the National Rugba League that is not associated with a designated area/location ie Manly, Penrith, Cronulla etc.
And We desperately need one, as I personally have had enough of being a nomadic gypsy Team.

We certainly need one modern home ground, that’s for sure, at least 30K capacity. But where? SFS, BankWest or ANZ? Not one of them is perfect. One of them is Parramatta Stadium, at least that’s what the locals call it. One of them is too big in some people’s eyes. The last is in the Eastern Suburbs so can’t have a team with Wests in their name playing there. !!!!! Arghhhh !!!!

Mate that is the problem and why there is so many differing opinions. No option suits us perfectly and everyone sees a different aspect they would compromise.

The ideal situation would be a 30k stadium at Olympic park, but isn't likely to happen.

Before covid, Olympic Park was going to be redeveloped to suit smaller audiences. There would be three tiers. The top two could be separately closed depending on how well promoters thought a game would sell. It would have created a more intimate effect for regular season games.

It's a shame it didn't happen, but probably for the best considering the insane amount of money they were going to spend on it.

I didn't say anything about using Campbelltown as a fulltime venue.

SFS WOULD BE THE LAST PLACE FOR WTS TO GO

Can't agree with that. The SFS is only 10 minutes away from Wests Ashfield and 20 minutes from the COE. A perfect location with 45K capacity.

Except it is in the Eastern Suburbs.


I know you don't like it @cochise but it really it ticks all the boxes.

Except being in the Eastern Suburbs lol


You mean the outskirts of the city that is easy to get to. 20 minute walk from Central or 7 minutes by bus. Its not at the beach.

Yes in the Eastern Suburbs, it only takes 20 mins to drive to Bondi Beach from the city. It's not like the Eastern Suburbs are huge but the SFS is in the Eastern Subrurbs

Who cares what LGA it is in. We'll never agree on this one.

Because we are a team called Wests that shouldn't be playing in the Eastern Suburbs.

It's only a name not a location.

No its a location


The perhaps we should be playing out of Pratten Park or Lidcombe Oval then !!!

Well they are in the West, but there are stadiums that are more appropriate in the West. To be honest a Wests Tigers team playing in the Eastern Suburbs just continues to promote a confused identity.


Only for a very few. The greater public wouldn't care.

In your opinion. We already have a very confused identity. For a club like ours, consistency of jersey, home ground and celebration of the club history is crucially important.


We are not the Western Suburbs Magpies nor are we Balmain. It's Wests Tigers by name which has nothing to do with any location.

With great respect @mike...you have mentioned one of the greatest stumbling blocks our Wests Tigers has.

"Wests Tigers by name WHICH HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LOCATION" due to the fact 'We don't have a location'.

I think We are the only team in the National Rugba League that is not associated with a designated area/location ie Manly, Penrith, Cronulla etc.
And We desperately need one, as I personally have had enough of being a nomadic gypsy Team.

We certainly need one modern home ground, that’s for sure, at least 30K capacity. But where? SFS, BankWest or ANZ? Not one of them is perfect. One of them is Parramatta Stadium, at least that’s what the locals call it. One of them is too big in some people’s eyes. The last is in the Eastern Suburbs so can’t have a team with Wests in their name playing there. !!!!!

Mate that is the problem and why there is so many differing opinions. No option suits us perfectly and everyone sees a different aspect they would compromise.

The ideal situation would be a 30k stadium at Olympic park, but isn't likely to happen.

Before covid, Olympic Park was going to be redeveloped to suit smaller audiences. There would be three tiers. The top two could be separately closed depending on how well promoters thought a game would sell. It would have created a more intimate effect for regular season games.

It's a shame it didn't happen, but probably for the best considering the insane amount of money they were going to spend on it.

Yeah, would be better to build a Bankwest style stadium somewhere else at Oympic Park and leave ANZ as it is. Much cheaper and would have provided a better outcome.

I wonder what’s planned for Leichardt Oval?

Mayor Darcy Byrne says he has been in talks about an upgrade.


It won’t get any cash from the government because it’s too close to SFS rebuild, and ANZ.
WT best chance is a new stadium at Campbelltown, hopefully seating more than 20,000 people.

Campbletown would be a disaster for the club full time
Pull curtains on the top leave of ANZ use that
Zouths are using ANZ next year we should have too

No different than wearing black and being called Tigers.

Yes, Yes and I don't care if there are red and green rabbits - I'm talking about a real NRL Club.

Tigers have black stripes

That's right - one black stripe to cover the whole Tiger.

That would be an Iv

We play at parramatta stadium - that’s the last place I want to go to.

What a joke of a situation really.

Leichhardt/Cambo > sfs > ANZ > parramatta Tamworth doesn’t count but I like that one

West is relative. Easts are West of Auckland. Penrith are comprehensively more West than Tigers are.
 
our COE is not west it is inner west
we used to play at SFS now it is revamped go back there we now have light rail etc for travel it ticks boxes
I think only options are SFS or ANZ

I thought we were going to use the Liverpool stadium when its open as well?

So that's now the Wests Bondi to Liverpool Tigers, based at Campbelltown, LO, Parra Stad, SFS & Liverpool, cant say it's to difficult to get to one of the grounds to watch a game now.:joy:
