    Future NRL Stadiums

    I'm a Penrith member and I feel embarassed anytime this development proposal gets mentioned / pushed. Parramatta and Canturbury and the Tigers playing out of Penrith is the most brain-dead suggestion I've ever heard. ooooooh it's backed by the MP for Penrith, that changes everything. And the...

    Crowd Watch 2014 part 2

    It will look like a sellout with no room to move on the hill, but then only be 14k.

    Sorting Out The West

    I remember when Gus the almighty ran out and registered the name Western Sydney Panthers. Maybe he's a few steps ahead of you!

    Crowd Watch 2014 part 2

    Remember how they also missed the boat to put a game on in Melbourne in week 1, BEFORE the AFL season began. WHO THE HELL WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR SCHEDULING?!?! Next year's schedule will be for Greenburg to get right. I know it's a negotiation, but surely these 2 Melbourne matches should've been a...

    Possible new West Sydney Stadium?

    High growth because it is from a very low base. There's only about 300k at the moment. Point 2 depends on where land releases will be for new populations in ALL of Western Sydney And you last 3 points add no reason to why a multi-tennant stadium should be built at the far extremity of the...

    Possible new West Sydney Stadium?

    Does the airport magically airlift the region of Penrith 25km South-east?

    Possible new West Sydney Stadium?

    A- they are looking at how they can save money in the long term instead of inefficiently upgrading individual stadiums with shorter life spans as is the case. Building new can often come out cheaper than upgrading. They may also consider it an investment if part of a business Park or residential...

    Possible new West Sydney Stadium?

    Badgerys Creek expected to be approved as Sydney's second airport This could make the parklands proposal more viable as well as anything near the geographically close-to-midpoint for Western Sydney of Wetherill Park. Possibly exciting stuff here people. Basically they need a new hub station...

    Possible new West Sydney Stadium?

    For the 1 billionth time it is not meant to be a stadium for the centre of Sydney. It will be a stadium that will be central for all WESTERN SYDNEY (rectangular) sporting teams. Having 9 stadiums is exactly why the state government has put its foot down about multiple stadium funding...

    '14 // R3 // Sat // Panthers 18-16 Bulldogs // Sportingbet

    Anyone else wonder how come Tony Williams didn't go on report for the high tackle on Simmons? I was at the game, did I just happen to have a deceiving angle that made it look like the worst tackle in the history of the NRL?

    Future NRL Stadiums

    Yeah Blacktown is also good, but in that scenario the Campbelltown fans become isolated. Campbelltown to Blacktown is a decent trek, 45 min drive, 1:15 train trip. Having said that I can see that driving from castle hill to Liverpool is close to 50 mins. A 3 stadium solution does look more...

    Future NRL Stadiums

    A couple of people have argued that Liverpool is not central and is a wasteland in the middle of nowhere, difficult to get to from the east. I think that misses the point that Liverpool would be an ideal place for all the WESTERN SYDNEY clubs to share. Look at a map between Parramatta...

    The 2014 NRL TV Ratings Thread

    Why is there no broadcast ratings for people who watch on their nrl app? I presume that Fox numbers include people who watch using foxtel play? Or is that also excluded?

    Tickets for kids should ALWAYS be subsidised. Get them interested young, lock them in for life.

    Crowd Watch 2014

    And I get the feeling TV ratings will be god-awful as well. Especially when it becomes the same unpopular teams shafted to the timeslot.

    Penrith in negotiations to play a NRL match in Hobart

    Has anyone received any hints which match will get taken to Bathurst? The following are our games v. Interstate clubs. Rd 5 Canberra (geographically not a bad idea but it's probably too late?) Rd 7 Gold Coast Rd 14 Brisbane Rd 23 North Queensland (we've had a lot of 5-7k crowds v them (often...

    Penrith Logo

    It's what happens when you let marketing trample over history for quick fix solutions. Think of all the hugest sporting clubs in the world New York Yankees, Manchester United, LA Lakers, Boston Red Sox, Real Madrid, Bayen Munich, Liverpool FC. And a massive population isn't required when you...

    Favourite timeslot

    5:30 is awesome, you can still go out to dinner afterwards, it doesn't consume your entire night.

    Hunter Mariners

    Penrith won 6/6 including beating Bradford x 2 (54-14 for one of them) and failed to make the quarters. That is an incredible record we get to hold onto. :) also shows why NRL vs SL WCC on even terms will never work. With the recent salary cap rises, the gap will widen, not narrow.

    Will we ever forgive and forget?

    Every year each Super League club should offer 2 players out of their top 25 as tributes for a televised fight to the death... :sarcasm:
