I apologise, this is even dumber
I only meant it a way for "proper inclusion", not suggesting i'd ever condone women and men sharing full contact, but the way the world is going with rights and all, i would be suprised if was an agenda by someone to push, but as for specialist positions, your dreaming

At least he seems valid to be able to think

You have taken my suggestion that you club should change its name and move to a better place very personally. Penrith is a silly name for a place representing more than just penrith including Bathurst and Orange etc. Western makes much more sense.

Coming from the PNG fan, hey didnt your hunters team get belted by penrith 60 zip in the interstate cup a few years ago... ha geez that team was shithouse, makes sense youd try and put shit on Penrith, since we spoilt your party a week later after you guys won the QCup

Panthers can’t draw a 20k crowd the way they are, might as well try something different, especially if bulldogs and tigers move out of bankwest to a new SW stadium. Would make sense for a Western Sydney Panthers to then play out of bankwest. Might help them become less reliant on gambling.

Some teams need to change their names although not sure if Western Sydney Panthers would work - Wests Tigers should be re-branded as Macarthur Wests Tigers and base themselves in Campbelltown it's an untenable position as it is now when Wests own 90% of the Franchise and all they have is a little Magpie on the sleeve- too much Balmain centric- Wests should buy out the remaining 10% and own it outright

You realise that the Wests that own 90% of the Tigers is Wests Ashfield based in the inner west. Wests Campbelltown don't have anything to do with WT's besides being a game day sponsor. Not taking away from the fact that they certainly need to do more for the Macarthur area. Maybe the future Liverpool stadium (hope its more than 17k) will mean they play a majority or half their games in the south west of Sydney.

The Wests Tigers biggest problem is, and always has been, that they are trying to be everything to everyone.

In their brand, their home ground, their marketing, their player recruitment, etc, they're always pulling in two or three different directions in an attempt to try and keep everybody happy, but you can't keep everybody happy all of the time, and that's stunting their growth as a result.

They need to bite the bullet and pick one direction and then double down on it. Yes that will piss some people off, but it'll also mean they can lay down some roots and really start growing again.

A good place to start that process would be by picking one home ground and sticking to it. Then they can go about picking one brand, tiger or magpie, and pissing the other off, weeding out the board members whom are still trying to play power games in the name of the Magpies or Tiger, etc, etc.

Yes this, ive been saying this for years, be milk or nothing, lite white is not milk, water pretending to be milk.
Be milk or be nothing!!!

If you wanna be called tigers fine, but be Orange/gold/carrot whatever as your main color or white there are white tigers too. But dont be fully black as the home, or away.
If you wanna be home at Campbelltown fine, but dont play at Leichardt, and vice versa, if you wanna be at bankwest or homebush, coz its halfway between both and fits more ok, but pick one and attempt to play 10-12 home games there only, all this half and half shít is why they are a mess

The SW stadium will solve this, if it happens. If it doesn’t tigers should bite the bullet and move to Bankwest for a min 10 games. Schedule tigers v eels and bulldogs home and away there with reciprocal membership agreements and you’ve got another six 30k games in Sydney a year!

Unless it's basically a carbon copy of Bankwest, they should probably still move to Bankwest even if the SW stadium happens.

revitalising the game in Sydney's North.

Easts have been pushing fir this but at the demise of Manly, so they can control the Northern side of Sydney as the junior base

Also Norths from 1908 to 1946 was exactly that district structure

It wont be long unitl Easts ask Norths to become the North Sydney Roosters for a few $. Just like they did to Newtown, CC and Wyong

As much as I hate the Roosters it is the best option unless the Rabbitohs change their name to Sydney and move back to the city.
The Roosters could try to take over the city and compete with the Swans. People are more likely to travel from North Sydney to Moore Park than the East beaches to Moore Park.

Geez.. not sure anyone is competing with the swans, just like any AFL team in Melbourne is competing with the Storm. I think roosters have got the city area already covered, its just that the city and eastern suburbs are small that they need to branch out either north in to the north shore/suburbs or relocate somewhere where they have the whole area to themselves
