      It’s been mentioned over on LU and a couple of other forums that Wests are apparently looking to merge their state cup side with Canberra.
      Merge, feeder, whatever the relationship is, it’s apparently due to the long touted plan to have a single WT state cup side. In this case Balmain would be that side.

      If this is indeed all true the Wests board should be ashamed. Yes, it would be great to have both sides running around but merging with Canberra?

          wests have more juniors and are actually funding their own side so it would be better for the joint venture if western suburbs was the wt feeder team. you know it’s true.

            going off what’s been posted on the magpies forum, it seems Wests just want to keep their identity.
            I have a lot of respect for the Wests management team, but this just seems loony!

              Because balmain > wests

              Nah in all honesty i have no idea. Even as a balmain fan i dont like the idea. My first preference is that they compete as balmain AND wests and if not then they should merge together.

                  One thing - compared to balmain, the geographics make much more sense if wests are the feeder club for canberra…

                          Aren’t West getting much joy or say in what goes on at the Wests Tigers? Having a little dummy spit hey?

                          The sooner the Wests Tigers can be 100% self funded the better…

                          Interesting days ahead!!!

                                Am I missing something.

                                Why would we let promising youngsters get used to living in Canberra.

                                Leave them in Sydney with only one choice >> Wests Tigers
