Yet with Wests seemingly going to be back in the fold.
Ashfield have still agreed to a JV side.
Why?
End of the day, no one cares about the state cup sides names bar for it being slightly nostalgic. The majority of us don't get out to watch them play (not pointing fingers at anyone - I'm sure a couple on here probably do), it's just nice to see the club names there.
We probably have a need to have a team based out of Campbelltown at that level, and seemingly most of us agree there.
Play it as WT but base it at Campbelltown.
Still doesn't solve the inadequacy of the 4 game issue though which is something we need to solve. But not at Leichhardts expense like Alien is suggesting.
The problem is Wests Tigers want the Wests Tigers NSW Cup team based at Camp Concord so they can train with the NRL players. If each club gets more funds from the NRL because of the new tv rights deal then maybe 5 games + 1 trial at Campbelltown Stadium, 5 games + 1 trial at Leichhardt Oval, and 2 at the SFS is possible. Eventually half at Campbelltown and half at Leichhardt would be best but both grounds probably need to increase capacity a bit first.
