Mergers don’t work

manly and south’s show that

but the club has had a bad culture from the start when terry lanb was coach and thought what hoppa was doing was funny

craig Bellamy was heading there till terry hill made some negative comments in the media and he decided not to go

then Benji and especially Farah had too much power and got multiple coaches sacked

Pascoe needs to go

problem is they’ve neglected Campbelltown so if the dogs get oasis two approved in Liverpool the club has no future there

Balmain still remains a very popular brand because of the 80s heroics

Benji will get thrown to the wolves next year he won’t last

anyway arlc doesn’t have the power to force them to relocate or the votes

The Tigers have acted more as an inner west club and have not really connected with the south west. As you mentioned, if Canterbury gets there way with Liverpool, then they will eat into the south west and the Tigers won't have much of a future at Campbelltown.

People saying they are spread too thin is an understatement. This year they played at 7 different “home” grounds with a maximum of 3 at any venue. Only 9 games in Sydney and they were split 3-3-2-1 Leichhardt-Campbelltown-Bankwest-Accor.

Relocation is still little to no chance but if any club can f**k it up so badly that it becomes a possibility then it is the Tigers.

Move to Campbelltown/SW Sydney as the Magpies and Sell the Tigers name to Easts/Brisbane NRL bid team. This club needs a reset and permanent area they call home not spreading themselves thin like a dodgy combover
I think you should present this idea in the next home game at Leichhardt Oval

Another scenario is if the Bulldogs get a stadium for THEM up in Liverpool, and basically trump the Tigers in that inner west-southwest corridor, and the Tigers end up having to relocate.. maybe to Brisbane, maybe with Brisbane Easts getting on-board in the operation.

The obvious solution is to add a much needed seventh home ground
If theyre into suburban grounds, they can play a few games over here in the Hutt Valley.

Fraser Park should be able to schedule them in between Avalon Wolves (my local Wellington club rugby side) games ;)

Nothing like a good stoush between the pokie den owners and the clubs main sponsor and chair to help a club’s stability!

Good riddance. How this spud managed to buy his way into the chair is a blight on the entire organisation. Hope I never see him or his stupid f**kin hat again. And can he take that big forehead gimp with him???
