Can't believe you blokes have the audacity to compare the odd magpie slip at a magpie heritage round to the bombardment of balmain references the wt fan is fed up every week.

Either way, judging by the designs of next year home jersey I expect a few balmain fans will start to get what ex magpie fans have felt for the better part of a decade. Expect plenty of " needs more orange " threads.

Audacious? lol

wrfl1981 has that same post saved on his computer so he can trot it out 5 times a day. You know, that one about the small magpie, being called tigers instead of wests, the one off scoreboard mix-up, too much orange on the jersey, training at concord instead of cambo…

But it's me being audacious? Give yourself a triple.

Yup.The fact you would bother bringing up one example from a match that was played to celebrate a game between the magpies and saints compared to **a decade of " media" and club oversights** is just stupid. Are you stupid? How does a stupid person answer that…lets wait an see.

If they are just oversights and it's not an orchestrated attempt to wipe out any mention of Wests then what are the old Maggies on about?
Obviously there is a conspiracy theory of some sort.

Yeah…...Balmain countered with a 250k proposal which Wests rejected.

They paid the 160 outstanding.....

Slate clean.

I know you hate the Wests side of this merger but your bias is becoming embarressing - where in the article does it say Wests rejected the compromise that Balmain put forward. From my reading it says Wests queried Balmains ability to meet the compromise they put forward but in no way rejected it.

Obviously comprehension isnt ur strong point….its embarassing....note the spelling.

I dont hate the Wests side of the merger,just the lack of crowds at cambo and the lack of juniors provided from the supposed junior nursery,and the constant whining about the unfairness of it all.The poker machine money from Wests Ashfield,just down the road from Leichhardt is very good.

PS.....Balmain beat Penrith in SG Ball.Second year in a row,plenty of good kids in that side.The Balmain junior nursery continues to feed the Wests Tigers with future superstars.

Good day.

Simple Simon such a liar. Thats why you're always one of the first to put the boot in when the crowds are crap and laugh, yet you don't attend any games yourself. Such a hypocrite

Forgot my inverted commas.

It's not a conspiracy theory, fact is the magpie was for a long time put aside.I was quite jadedin the early days but you move on. What's annoying is when clowns (not aimed at you) tell you that there are no biases and the JV views both sides of the fence equally…it's all in the magpie fans head.

Anyways, I hope the pendulum don't swing to far west now cause without balmain wests would be no more and judging by Balmain's current state you balmain fans would be barracking for a team playing Newtown. just a nice even spread of representation of both clubs. Somehow.

This thread is teetering on the brink of being closed. Seriously people, if you can't discus this rationally without resorting to the same old Balmain v Wests crapfest, then it won't be discussed at all.
 
This thread has certainly derailed off topic.

Fact: Balmain is in debt and is having trouble paying its contribution to WT
Fact: Wests Group has Ashfield Leagues as a Wealthy backer of WT

Fact: Some WT fans who originally followed Wests Magpies feel that WT is often portrayed as a re-badged Balmain. This is expressed in my posts and by many others with MANY examples

Although there may seem to be only Magpie diehards who "cant get over it" there are also many Balmain diehards who have been posting on this very thread and post publically via other social media such as these examples:

**Telling Erin Molan not to call WT 'Wests'**

**and Warren Smith on Fox**

with the announcement of the 1963 heritage jersey

**has his own conspiracy theories of his old club**

![](http://sphotos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/62837_10151641204630579_812685404_n.jpg)

I post on these threads with consistant content as the core issue(s) still stand.

I want to support WT 100% and i am **passionate** about ensuring the legacy of Wests lives on whilst ever i am alive. There are some dinosaurs around all the parties that have a stake in WT. But those dinosaurs are for now keeping WT together financially which flows down to on and off the field performance.

WTFL
 
After all that, does anyone know what is happening with the old leagues club. Has it sold? Can we sell it? Can we partition the government? Without a leagues club, the Balmain side will continue to struggle. Even if the development get approved, what does the club get out of it? Does anyone know anymore? Alot of questions need to be answered. Go WESTS TIGERS! (You know, the actual team in the NRL!) :sign:

Oh no! You have uncovered the secret conspiratorial pact between the Balmain Tigers and the NRL, all the TV channels and radio stations, the entire print media, sponsors, jersey designers, and Government (why not) to give off the 'vibe' that Wests Tigers are sorta more kinda Balmainey than Western Suburbey to some members of this forum.

Nothing gets past you scoop. Just watch out for those UFOs on your way home.

Spoken like someone with much life experience on the matter.

If I'm stupid, then you're probably typing this with your brain in a jar beside you, being examined by important looking scientists with puzzled looks on their faces.

Surprised you are able to get out of bed in the morning by yourself… Or are you?

Anyways champ you should be getting off to bed. Don't want you missing that short bus in the morning.

I think most of this stuff comes down to fear of the old Magpie disappearing.
The word 'Wests' isn't enough for the JV -and even though the current team is called the 'Tigers' the old brigade want the maggie there as well.
Personally I don't mind a small maggie somewhere on the jersey as a nod to the past - even if it has zero relevance as a mascot to the current NRL team.
By rights the same thing should be accorded to the word 'Balmain' being present - but it isn't.
Reason being there are still plenty of people on the Wests side of the fence who 'think' people still perceive WestsTigers as Balmain.
Imagine the howling if the word 'Balmain' was to appear on the jersey in close proximity to the Magpie?
Personally, I don't know anyone who calls the WestsTigers Balmain .
Really ….Masters writes these articles just to stir things up more than enlighten people.
 
First world problem people. We should be happy that we still have a team in the NRL competition, i think alot of people forget that.

He seems to be giving just as good as you. I wouldn't beat my chest too hard about ''owning'' anyone in this thread, its just one giant cluster ….

But if it makes you feel better about yourself thinking you've owned an anonymous stranger on the internet then good for you big man

Oh look who's adding their 2 cents. I thought you only jumped in with silly remarks when ink made a comment, obviously you've expanded your services to anybody with a magpie past.

At least you've graduated from bullying the school kids on the forum.
