So back on topic... can't wait to lol at Spags over summer when his complicated plans for one last tilt at sneakingly taking over control of the club eventually fail at one of the various hurdles needed.

I remember when people were so keen to jump on the 3P bandwagon - private messaging people to convince them why they should vote for Spags' team, excitedly rubbing shoulders with candidates and even being election night scrutineers for them.... Eventually everyone saw through the hollow promises and questionable motives, and thankfully most have long memories.

Stability for the future​

After the darkest period in our history, the Club emerged from Administration in 2016. Since then, much progress has been made in strengthening the Club’s culture and ensuring the long-term commercial viability and stability of our Club.

Our Centre of Excellence and Community Centre in Kellyville, set to open in March 2025, is a major milestone for the Club. It will not only provide best in class facilities for our NRL and NRLW programs, for the first time in the Club’s history it will unite our men’s and women’s programs in one location while also being a home for our male and female elite pathways.

This five-year project would not have been possible without strong governance and long-term planning. The support of the Hills Shire Council (HSC), Parramatta Leagues Club (PLC), and the State and Federal Governments has been critical in bringing this transformational project to life.

It is against this backdrop, that I want to reference the recent media reports regarding efforts to destabilise the board of our parent company, Parramatta Leagues, by calling for an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM).

Many of the individuals involved in this destabilisation effort were part of the leadership factions that led the Club into its darkest period between 2010 and 2016. During that time, the NSW government, through the Independent Liquor and Gaming Authority (ILGA), appointed an Administrator to oversee the Club.

As part of his appointment, the Administrator put in place a new Constitution for the Football Club. This revised Constitution was designed to enable the club to protect the Football Club from the factionalism that historically disrupted our Club so badly. You can read more about the Constitution here.

We have worked hard to move the Club forward, and it's crucial that we, as Members, ensure that our Club does not return to that prior era.
