This is for those Western Suburbs fans who turned up every week to Campbelltown Stadium in 1999 to watch their team get belted.

This is for those Balmain fans who sat in piles of mud to farewell the last Balmain Tigers team at Leichhardt Oval in 1999.

This is for those fans who were in tears when it was announced the two clubs would merge.

This is for those who were at Campbelltown Stadium in Game One 2000 to welcome the future.

This is for those who still wore their jerseys with pride after "that week" of finger poking and drug using.

This is for those who sat on the slush pile of Campbelltown and Leichhardt hills in torrid rain watching the likes of Joel Caine pass to Lee Murphy for a Trent Runciman hitup.

This is for those who turned up week after week to support a team run by schoolyard clown coaches (Lamb and Langmack)

This is for those who were laughed at when they mentioned they supported the Wests Tigers.

This is for you. ENJOY IT.

What about us former Balmain fans who don't believe in mergers????

Well as a former Balmain fan you have got no open aged Rugby League team to support because one is in a joint venture with Western Suburbs and the other has merged with Ryde Eastwood.

So I guess you can have an early night on Sunday mate.

Cheers.
