WT NSW cup team for 2013

Te Wyong team is an interesting decision.

No NRL backing could make it hard for them.

However there are a lot of ex NSW Cup players (very good ones at that) running around on the Central Coast so if they can attract those it will be a good start

They have delusions of grandeur over at Wyong. First the Central Coast wasn't good enough and they buggered off to Newcastle and now the NSW Cup? It's not like they're dominant up there. You'd think you would start off in the Bundy Cup first, as you say with no affiliate it could be a tough slog for them.
 
Smeg, will the decision regarding who will be the coach of WT NSW Cup team be similar to first grade where a sub-committee will make it's recommendations to the the board? Would the likely candidates be Fletcher, Epifania & Payten? Thanks mate

You'd think they'd keep Payten as NYC coach. Fletcher would seem favourite given BRET made the GF.
 
I have some opinions as to where the coaching situation will end up in NSW Cup but they are speculation so I think it best to leave them as just my opinion rather then opening up for debate.

NSW Cup retention is normally finalised last minute of the year anyway
 
Common sense has prevailed, this could be the most important decision made regarding the joint venture since 1999.

While I was a Balmain fan I always cheered for our Wests brothers since the marriage - now we are all one.

Embrace it, let's all move on to a very exciting new chapter!

Totally agree Yoss …. Seems like a brilliant way to burn a whole bunch of cash.
Didn't they notice how Wests (the only no aligned NRL team) went this year.
Surely they've just ticked the wrong box and really intended to enter the Bundy Cup.
Green and Gold insanity!

Yeah. I was reading the CC Express Advocate (or whatever its called these days) about it and I'm still none the wiser why you'd go from Newcastle 1st grade to NSW Cup. They basically implied they'd get a whole new team and were having open trials… They did suggest they'd put a team back in the CC first grade comp which is something I guess but then again you expect it would basically be the same team they're playing up in Newcastle (minus the few that go into the NSW Cup team) that was too good to play there 10 years ago.

I just can't for the life of me work out why you would go straight to NSW Cup and not play Bundy Cup and, more importantly, why the NSWRL would agree to it. Playing in Bundy Cup was enough to ruin Woy Woy and Erina. As you say Wests Magpies couldn't win a game without NRL players and while they had less time to assemble a team I have grave fears the Wyong team won't be much better.

Oh well, time will tell I guess...

Well said!

(& best of luck to Wyong too - they are going to need all the help they can get!)
 
Unless he actually has the experience having him in front of Fletcher, Georgallis, Leo and even Royce is a disgrace.
