I heard that BRET are to have all contracted Wests Tigers play for them and not Wests Magpies. Is this official?

If it is, it is a big call from the Magpies.

Wests Magpies only want 'local' talent playing for their Premier League team.
And because they don't want to merge Premier League teams, measures are to be taken.

Sheens is sick of having to deal with two Premier League teams.

Sheens and Noyce have a job to do and that is to make the Wests Tigers as successful as possible, that is their job.

Sheens wants a unified Premier League team which will benefit the Wests Tigers and I won't disagree with him, he knows whats best for the Wests Tigers.

They have always said that they want one Premier League team. Balmain wanted it and Wests didn't.

So it would seem that if BRET are to get all contracted players this must be the best thing for the Wests Tigers according to the Wests Tigers board, Sheens and Noyce.

Therefore it would be fair to say that there are people still at the Magpies who DO NOT have the Wests Tigers as their priority and if thats want they want then bugger em I say.

Wests can have their ordinary Premier League to follow, thats fine but if it is at the expense of the Wests Tigers then no way and thats obviously what Sheens thinks.

Its called "Biting your nose off despite your face"

Its actually "Cutting off your nose to spite your face" but you're right it seems to be a ridiculous situation.

That may not be a bad idea as campbelltown sholud have enough talent to produce a decent side in a couple of years anyway, i watch alot of group six games and there is plenty of good young talent around and if west are keen on looking after the jnr area for once( its taken 20 years) the sides will be very good i beleave.If sheens wants one side to drawn on i understand that but for some people west or balmain is like the last remaining bit of there heritage.Havent the loyal diehards of our club paid a heavy price already?

Wests with the backing of Wests Ashfeild (the blokes who pay WT's bills) are opposing the decision.
