Did you say a billionaire hangs around to get a memberships on the cheap. I saw that interview where Pascoe walks in with a gift, and triguboff says something like,so what have you got for me. The context was the CEO of the WT hand delivers merch to HT.HT is not won over by a membership Check...

Correct, the TV rights deal take into account the reach of every club, and when Fox sells CH9 2 games a week they look carefully at that data, and WT being the most unsuccessful club in the last ten years, gets way more free games because of their fan base. Leichhardt Oval is the last connection...

I couldn't agree more, and the junior system out there is worth the hike. The original point was that shifting permanently away from Leichhardt would cost us a lot more than the ground takings at Leichhardt

I am a member of Wests Ashfield and your correct, it also backs up my point regarding the large number of Wests Ashfeild patrons who are not rugby league members. Wests run both their clubs very well, unlike the embarrassment that was Balmain Leagues. Wests also have business interests and...

Lol, don't take the Westie thing personally. At the very least, respond to the claim, You don't think we are rich? You don't think it's from a large fanbase, or that the money spent on merch and sponsorship equates highly? Fact.The last generation to see a successful Magpies era are dead. The...

That's the point, black gold, rich as in Balmain

Incorrect black gold and white like you said are putting all their money in the pokies. Pokies money from West's goes to all of their share holdings, merchandising and sponsorship go straight to the club. Besides the house'os of the western suburbs don't spend on tickets and merch, crowd figures...

WT are rich because of a fanbase that force the hand of networks giving more than a line share of free to air games, merchandising through the roof. The youngins of the 80's are statistically at an age where disposable income is the highest. They cashed in on their Putney to Balmain waterside...

Kiss his feet, Tim Mannah on Fox was laughing at us. We look at our 10 years of crap and blame 1 player. It would have been easier for him to leave than it was for us to resign him. Look what we had to sign over the past 3 days. We payed Jayden Sullivan 2.2 million over 4 years, are you serious...

He couldn't act any other way. Surely he had to put a smile on his face. The 200th was good.

How many West's Tigers have played for us for a decade. Many were like rats on a sinking ship, including the dog Tedesco. When it was popular to reject our contracts or leave us. He did not.

11 years of service, love him or hate him. We offered him contracts and he played, often to bare the brunt of our displeasure. Local junior who stood by us, when the captain and the other 2 dogs abandoned us (Nofa stayed loyal, not to forget). For nothing else, so the players coming can see that...

I don't blame him, for leaving. Fact is the team was very open about a 40yo replacement not that long ago. You can be the most diplomatic person on the planet. I would not even close the door behind me on way out. Then a player who has played almost as much as Luke with only a handful of finals...

Yep, agreed but, we are like a bloke who has a date with a pretty girl and can't get it up after doing everything else right.

Against Newcastle the signs were there, by round 4 it official. Scoring points especially in attack, was scarily lacking. We're going to be 12 rounds in and it has not been addressed. I have to cop that I was a huge Sheen's supporter, but even when we had a weak team on paper we could score...

My twitter feed reported that Bateman would be playing in the centres, and Valentine homes to the dragons effective immediately, this last one makes me doubt every thing Tago retirement effective immediately. If your bored on Mardi Gras weekend and have twitter check it out, he's called the...

Leichhardt is the most successful, by a considerable margin. More importantly the crowds are also the highest.

To be honest, the article itself did not portray DF in a good light. Cut short at Leeds what does that mean. Did we offer more? Where the dogs happy to let him go? All we know is that what Sheen's likes is all that matters...Your either on the bus or your not.

Why ?.. I also, thought that ball playing 13's were an outdated idea, and the trend was to have a third Prop, or a solid body eg Finucaine, Taumalolo at 13, or Tapaue, Twal, But now it seems like the coaches have gone back to a more nimble option in a pack. Cleary actually always had Yeo, play...
