tigger said:King Tigerman said:but the question is not should it happen but will it happen & the answer will definately be no & im not talking about the nostalgic reasons i think having 2 teams in reserve grade (2 strong reserve grade teams) is a bonus & if we merged them we would definately lose a lot of promising young players
We only have one :lol:
Jeffles said:Well I think they should stay separate. There is a lot of rich history in the two clubs and a lot of support for them still. If there is no financial/survivial reason to merge (and there was with the First Grade), then keep them separate.
Another reason is that the Premier League competition is emerging as a purists heartland. It resembles the old Sydney Premiership and its appeal lies in people watching clubs like Newtown, Norths, Wests and Balmain.
June 5 the Jets play Balmain at Henson
June 12 we play the Magpies at Henson
So hopefully I see all you lot within a week of each other.
