What is your point about Eastwood owning their own ground? Do they actually pay the rates to the local council? Do they stand on their own two feet? It would be interesting to know what kind of financial assistance North Ryde RSL lends Eastwood Rugby Union Club to operate.Woods99 said:Make yourself clear, old mate. If there is a problem at Eastwood, surely I can just ring them - I am a member in good standing. Why bring Flowers into it? We at Eastwood actually own our own ground. Not many league clubs can boast that, can they?
It is obvious that Shark Park is owned by Taipan’s Cronulla Rugby League Club. Most Sydney NSWRL clubs have contributed to the upgrade of their suburbian grounds in the past.
I know that Cabramatta Leagues Club paid for the grandstand at Cabramatta Sports Ground.
I’m not sure if McCrede Oval at Guildford is owned by Guilford Leagues Club.
Windsor Wolves have their own ground and Leagues club at Windsor
Western Weekender Stadium is at St Marys League Club
Group 3 Leagues Club has a ground next to their club at Taree
Mt Pritchard Community Sportsground is part of Mt Pritchard Community Club
Queanbeyan Kangaroos have their own playing fields
Kippax Field at West Belconnen is right next to West Belconnen Leagues Club
Cudgen Hornets has a Leagues Club and ground at Kingscliff
Ballina Seagulls Leagues Club looks after Kingsford Smith Park Ballina
Liverpool Catholic has Rugby League grounds inside its sporting complex
Blacktown Workers has its own sports complex which includes its League grounds
Wyong Leagues Club has football grounds within their complex.
West Tamworth Leagues Club owns Scully Park West Tamworth
West Tamworth Leagues Club welcomes all sports to use its facility:

Central Charlestown once allowed the Newcastle Wildfire Rugby Union Team to play on their home ground, which is next to their Leagues Club.The NSW Country Cockatoos earned themselves a home semi-final next weekend after comfortably defeating the Melbourne Axemen 22-11 at Scully Park in Tamworth on Saturday night in the Bundaberg Rum Australian Rugby Shield.
It would be interesting to know how many Rugby League Clubs or Leagues Clubs provide sponsorship to local Rugby Union Clubs. It is a well known fact that Parramatta Leagues Club props up The Parramatta Two Blues Club and the Vikings Club at Dundas. It is known that the Penrith Panthers has given generous donations to the Penrith Emus Rugby Union Club
My local Burwood RSL (which I’m a member of) props up West Harbour Rugby Club.
It is interesting if you go to the website for The Central Coast Rugby Union and you see the Central Coast Leagues Club is one of their sponsors:http://www.centralcoast.rugbynet.com.au/
What is your point Woods?
