Wests Tigers to Wests Lions rebrand

[Papacito]

Years ago, I was informed the club received quite a healthy sum of money for playing games at what was then the football stadium and also ANZ. If as you have written we need to remain competitive by generating revenue, and we still receive a healthy sum of money for scheduling games at Parramatta, shouldn't all our games be played there?

If you're looking to maximise revenue and completely ignore heritage - that would be the logical move. A bit like when the Dogs left Belmore about 25 years ago.

I happy to await the responses from the three levels of govt as I have written to all.

Make sure you let us know what they say....
....on 2nd thoughts...dont bother

The word "Wests" needs to be dropped off the name. It's an absolute marketing disaster; no other team has a compass point attached to their name. It's a negative word, that's where the sun drops at the end of the day. A continual reminder of reinforced negativity in many ways other than a curtain of darkness dropping on us..

Souths aren’t a compass point? 🤔

Membership of wests tigers, aka paying fans, makes no impact on HBG. That's the whole issue. Even if we stop buying merchandise, attending games, and dump our "memberships", it will have zero impact on HBG. It's been the issue for quarter of s century. This stupid indentured system is what puts WT apart from every other system.

Yes, we are the ONLY club under the debenture system, can that be changed by any means so we are in alignment with everyone else ?

Look at how destroyed this club is that people are saying fold, relocate or change the name to Lions or whatever.

It takes skill to have your supporter base talking about shit like this.

Sorry can someone explain to me how this thread reached 7 pages? Did anything apart from a hoax happen?

Sort of. The only impact is that they will have to spend more to plus the gaps from the decreased revenue of members

Indeed. Why wasn't this thread closed once the claims were proven bogus. There are other threads to focus on anti HBG planning

Wests lions as a nice ring to it, and it creates a new single identity that doesn't involves two foundation clubs that don't exist anymore.

How do you figure that out you clown, Wests is in the name, just get over the fact that Tigers is never going to be dropped from the brand.

Some trolling behaviour here.

I like it. Have a big Lion on the front. Wests Tigers as the former club should be honoured on the sleeves. Magpie and Balmain will have to go.
