Don’t worry in a week or two you will have something to be happier about than … let’s be honest … a meaningless trophy

I posted a map of clubs areas in Sydney on the crowds thread and the bears area is amongst the biggest in Sydney

And that’s not even talking about the money their area has

TikTok - Make Your Day

Here’s some of d.fairleigh talking about the bears demise to James graham

The video before talks about super league

Great interview, I have known Dave since we were kids, I played with Wyong and Dave played in the age under with Ourimbah in Steve Carters (Penrith) age group.
Both my sons played at Ourimbah, I coached there and was President there for six years.
Dave would come down and help train the boys some times when he was available.

Interesting news out of last night was that players are already reaching out to the Bears for 2027

I'm sure player agents have been on the phone!

Its a shame Kurt and Josh Rogers arent a few years younger. Would have been two good 'local' signings for the Western bears.

I’m just happy they took my advice and changed the original eyes on this logo. Previous eyes looked like a stoned Cambodian.

you are quite correct, I thought it might have fallen into the Illawarra border but is the boundary of the Sutherland shire. will fix back.

Don’t know the exact line but the most northern Wollongong Group 7 club is Helensburgh

I've known Davo since we were in the maternity ward together. He says he doesn't know who you are and to return his underwear you stole off his clothes line.

Josh Rogers’ younger brother Darius was the ISC halfback of the year this season, Rogers was selected in the initial WA CAS squad but wasn’t in the final squad of 20
Rogers may play against the touring English residents team in a few weeks.
Six of the nine players selected were not available for the weekends CAS WA Championships team.

Dragons area is the whole south coast

He was ruled out of the touring squad with illness. He won’t be playing against the English, he’ll be over east getting ready for next season

I wonder if any of the young WA talent will move over to NS for next year? be good for our WA best to be in HM, SG ball and Flegg asap.

Eventually the Ladies too via Tarsha Gale and Lisa Fiaola Cup. @Centy Coast have you heard anything on a Bears Harvey Norman Cup for the gals? I believe they got denied for some reason for 2024

Not quite.
Batemans Bay to the border is Canberra Raiders area I believe.

 

[Matt_CBY]

just to clarify, Blacktown belongs to Penrith

Looks to be a few things wrong with that map

Do the Bears plan to rejoin Flegg?


Should also be aiming for at least one Perth based side in the NSW or QLD junior comps by 2027.

QRL U16s is 7 weeks & U18s is 11 weeks, plus finals. NSWRL U17s & U19s are 9 weeks each plus finals. A couple ‘West Coast Cubs’ teams in either system should be achievable by the end of the decade if they’re serious.
