Correct: there were no Magpie jerseys in attendance.
You'd have known that Fisherman Steve, if you'd been there
Who do you support again ?
I was there, i saw one magpies jersey and one old fella in a magpies polo shirt. About 5 balmain jerseys....the other 99% wests tigers gear. But hey, lets conveniently ignore the 99% to support our push to make this divisive and to make ourselves the victim.
 
How do we appease the Magpies enough for them to let independent people run Wests Tigers?

- let them design the Campbo WT jersey
- let them run and profit from Campbo games
- honour their proud history at Campbo games
- make the Magpies more prominent on the jersey
- keep the reserve grade side as the magpies and pump money into growing it’s brand

I don’t actually know what they want, but it’s worth having the conversation.
Well the irony is I don't think they are particularly attached to Campbo, I think the burning desire of those diehards is a return to the Innew West.

Even though their own club instigated the original move to Campbelltown.
 
I am too. It's not your money. You realise all the clubs are in heavy balmain territory?

Misleading advertising mate if you use the branding to collect the cash. You should start there. Remove that, I suspect the WT logo too given its jointly owned. Then wait a few years, then you might be able to cut the junior league funding without lawsuits.

The new rozelle club would need to be the magpies
The Rozelle club will never be branded as the magpies. Never.

If Wests Ashfield are genuinely committed to Wests Tigers then all clubs should be rebranded as Wests Tigers clubs.
The fact that all of Wests Ashfield clubs are located in the balmain juniors districts should also be more of an impetus for Wests Ashfield to keep funding them.
If anything stopping the funding of the Macarthur region makes far more sense geographically speaking
 
Paton and Fallah have both stated they do not have to fund this if they don’t want to.
I very much doubt they are intending or wanting to cut the funding, but more of a statement to say if they continue to be painted as villains long term without an opportunity to do things right, funding they are not required to make could come under question.
Mate that is an example of rubbish governance - threatening the vulnerable who are seen to be on the weaker side of the JV and who are the future of the code, to remind everyone who is boss. Piss weak even to mildly suggest that.

It wreaks of people who think we are at the mercy of them regardless of their own inept management.
They are the single biggest handbrake to the club moving forward while ever there is no accountability for their performance other than to maintain control and feed the us against them mantra when they are in damage control.
 
They help with funding for many local sporting clubs and organisations.
They are not obliged to fund Balmain, but do it for the good of Wests Tigers.
As I’ve said to you before, I don’t blame you or anyone else for wanting the Indekent board members returned and I don’t blame anyone for expressing dissatisfaction,
The dissatisfaction expressed by Wests Tigers fans forced PVL to intervene and forced HBG to reinstate the previously dismissed board members, so the supporters voices were clearly heard,
I heard Darcyvtidsy say Wests Tigers voices are not being heard, the actions as mentioned above prove that statement to be incorrect.
How can you keep repeating the same bs logic in your head and simply believe it's true?
HBG haven't listened to the fans once since they commissioned the review.
Reinstating the independents while also reinstating HBG members renders every single independent as useless. Just a visual tool to make it appear to those who don't look any deeper that HBG cares about professionalism and governance. There is still doubt whether they'll even return, why would they when they were disrespected so atrociously just 2 weeks ago, and our new being offered tokenistic positions?
Through their own negligence they were apparently caught unawares on two major projects that had been months or even years in the making. That's on them, not to me used as an excuse for sympathy

Nah mate, there were no Magpie jerseys (that’s fake news).
I will however give you the old bloke in the polo, I walked with him back up to Ashfield Mall after the fizz had gone out of proceedings.
 
What are you talking about not criticising Balmain? Balmain's dead mate, there's nothing left to say.
It is very inconsiderate to say Balmain is dead.
Tell that to all the aspiring young players coming through their current Harold Matthews and SG Ball teams as well as the ones in the past such as Adam Doueihi, Jared Haywood etc
