Goimg from the board to bakeries. We’d have probably been better off having Vicky from Flamin Roll run our joint for the last decade.
 
But this is the Wests Tigers demographic.

With these changes what does that do for our future juniors base in the inner west as well as prospective fans and sponsors.?

Will Rugby League still be big in Sydney?

The new board will no doubt take this into account.

Development goes above Burwood council.....straight to NSW govt. Population is planned to triple in Burwood in 20 years. Think Hornsby for template. Like we need the numbers.....it was buzzing and thriving in the 70s phark.

So it will be different again .


For a decent butcher try combo butcher/ fish shop( I know not the best) behind Burwood Pl leading to Belmore st. Ask for stuff they sell at clubs. But really Ashfield mall has Woolies/Coles and a good butcher.

But for everything go Roselands.

And it is pertaining to this thread with demographic changes in Wests Tigers area.

Okay. Barry O'Farrell gears up for a tough job. Reads this thread and goes:

I need to change the demographics of Burwood too?


Seriously, ever notice how many Roosters fans there are now? It used to be that Roosters had next to no supporters. Now their membership has grown and it has grown in part from Asian Australians.

Why don't us Tigers do an Asian style tiger jersey?
Thinking All black with a gold chinese tiger on both sides. I reckon it would look sick*.

* I fully recognise this would butcher our team and colours. But heck most jersey designs these days do. Did we have a Wolverine style jersey when they did the marvel superheroes one?

Wests League Club (Leumeah) withdrew from Wests Tigers in 2013 when Wests Magpies (including Ashfield & Leumeah Leagues Clubs) & Balmain Tigers ownership was 50/50.

The ownership proportions have changed since. Wests Magpies Pty Ltd, majority owned by HBG, are 90% owners of Wests Tigers. HBG operate licensed clubs in the inner west. They don't have anything to do with Wests League Club (Leumeah).

Under the above arrangement, I can't see any venue in the Campbelltown/Macarthur area being a full-time training, or game day base for the NRL organisation, unless Wests League and HBG unite in some way. I think there is still some resentment between the two organisations and HBG would be loathe to assist Wests League in any way with 10-12 home games on their door step. There is probably a lot of politics still at play.

I also think HBG understand the importance of continuing to recognise the heritage of Balmain Tigers. They have become Holman 'Barnes', and made subtle changes to their colours at Ashfield. Leichhardt Oval is extremely important to the heritage of Balmain, and Wests Tigers. I think the review included recommendations to continue to honour the heritage of both foundation clubs, however I don't know how specifically.

Relax,

I'm sure the new board will sort everything. 🙂

We will be in their capable hands.

Remember too that the base around WA is also part of Magpies/ WT heritage and identity.

Interesting you mentioned the HBG. Many on here pushed for so called independent directors as part of the review. Many seemed to dislike so called Magpies control....but it wasn't. The HBG is a new inclusive entity. Thing is the HBG is independent from from both Wests and Balmain but inclusive of them. Sure the HBG is controlled by Wests but that is only because Balmain unfortunately isn't financial.

And by the way how do you know anything about the so called reviews recommendations ?

How do these bastards get away with this sort of thing.
Innocent people's lives ruined.
The head dude responsible for this atrocious building workmanship has to be jailed for this.

The main problems are because the industry was allowed to become "self regulated"in NSW by the LNP state government,you should never put control of an industry in the hands of the same people wanting to make money from that indusrty.A terrible mistake was made at the time

That's true,

But de regulation type events are normally created by governments because they forsee massive growth in an industry due to parallel initiatives they create, in this case massive above trend immigration.

Sorta like turning a blind eye for a while.......build anything because we are mass immigrating.

Conversly, when we see over regulation, red tape etc they are going the other way on an industry.

It stinks.

We've been rate payers at Burwood council for decades.....nobody consulted us whether we like 40 story flats in the suburb.

But so much for democracy.

It's been rumored or suggested for a long time that the building industry in the big centres at least, has to an extent been controlled by undesirables.
How could any govt. let it be controlled/"self-regulated" by them.
Sure was "a terrible mistake" jt:
