Yep I want more Wests Tigers games there, but we need all parties to be on the same page if that's ever going to happen.

And while I commend Wests Leagues Campbelltown and Campbelltown Councils sentiment, I believe their actions are quieter than their words.

Ok let the current love-inn continue then

Just one question fellas ......... what's the point of having the best junior nursery in the world if you don't have the money to retain them ?

P.S. I'm not sure I would be too worried about Easts and C'bury either .......... I remember Gr8_1 was certain we would be invaded three years ago but it has come to nothing.

If Wests Campbelltown again provided some funding to the Magpies I'm sure we could keep more of them.

Yeh that was before the Dogs signed a 20year lease at Homebush.

But that doesn't help Magpies hold onto players for the Wests Tigers now does it.

They give Wests Tigers money and I'm sure I have read in the past that the WT have used it to retain players like Lawrence, Tegive in the past.

So if Balmain get their development up n going, and are able to put more money in, then Ashfield has to match that dont they?

I think Wests and Balmain have an agreed cap of what they are required to put in.

1.5 mill from each side I think.

1 mill from Wests Ashfield
0.5 mill from Wests Cambo
1.5 Mill from Balmain

Find it interesting that on the financials from Ashfield and BLC they stated they gave WT approx. 400k each and Campbelltown gave WT 500k supposebly I been told. The article states the WT only asked for 540k last season yet the financials show more. Whats the go ?

Stuff the money maybe the fact that we have a crap team makes players look else where. Would you like to win premierships in lower grades or wooden spoons on your way to first grade.

Wests Tigers must reduce the need for Leagues Club Funding. Because in time I think it may run out.
