Joel, I am a Balmain supporter and I strongly agree that you are being an idiot.
The move to Leichhardt or Campbelltown would be the beginning of disruption within the JV.
We need to play less double headers, agreed.
If we could have 6 Campbo games and 6 leichhardt, that would be great. And if this season is successful enough and provides the next season with similar success at least, then I dare say the amount of double headers will begin to dwindle very quickly.
A permanent move to Campbelltown or Leichhardt is not the answer. You are basing your opinion on heart and lack of thorough analysis.
At Leichhardt in 2004
Tigers played and beat Manly (strugglers this season)
Tigers played and beat Parramatta (In their worst form of the season thus far)
Tigers played and beat Storm (great match against a team coming off a loss and that has never won at Leichhardt)
At Campbelltown in 2004
Tigers played and lost to Brisbane (who were pretty much full strength and are comptition heavyweights)
Tigers played and beat Canberra (They played poorly an we played brilliantly)
Tigers played and lost to Roosters (Benchmarks of the league, at full strength)
Compare the quality of the opponents. Your comments are lacking in forethought.
I am not an advocate for either ground, but the successes this season at Leichhardt are contributable to the quality of their opponents.
Ask yourself this, would you be demanding a move to Leichhardt if the matches were swapped and Campbelltown had all the success?
I think you'd be rather quiet to be honest.
