I think this was coming for a while, as the Magpies did not get the attention and funds which the Balmain club received from Wests Tigers. The NSW Rugby league are yet to approve this move

Isn't this better. Now we get one club and the wests/balmain crap should be further behind us.

dunno about that i think state cup is now boring ,i only followed it to see balmain play
i dunno why we couldnt just keep the 2 and just have players play for both,its not like state cup players get used much anymore anyways its all u20s

With you on this. Time to look forwards and have the whole club come together as one.

 

[Marshall_magic]

About time, whether you like it or not we are one club.

 

[The Joker]

But can they still have the magpie on the sleeve of the jersey?

Agreed. The magpie is now plucked. Time to get down to business.

Talking of state cup. Bret had a fantastic win today in the first semi against Windsor. 36-6 from memory. Meaney was great as was Humble, how they cant get a gig before Moltzen has me f**ked. Moors and Simona played good as well.

 

[innsaneink]

We are not even close to being a club...dont kid yourselves.

As for reserve grade, I really dont give much of a rats

When u/18s SG Ball is the most senior teams for BRET & Wests, who will bother joining the football clubs - no one, even less than they currently do.
No voting members.
The board remain unanswerable to anyone, as do the coach, ceo and players.
You can buy a membership, get a shitty flag and sweatshop cheap crap cap....yet you have to cop shit like:

''Tim is our head coach, we continue to believe that he's the best man for the job and that's really the end of it,''

Did you watch Brett Stewart last night. Moltzen ain't that bad.

The death of the magpie mascot is a move in the right direction. The white needs to take
a back seat in out colours now, to strengthen our brand.

 

[innsaneink]

Nice try.
Brand, franchise......we are no club, never will be

We have season ticket holders, not members.
We have three home grounds
We have no leagues club
We have no home

 

[macnaz]

Didnt see ONE first grader watching Bret today.

 

[innsaneink]

Yeh, were a tight club...err franchise

 

[macnaz]

I just hope Sirro is involved in what ever they do. The guy is Tigers through and though and has done a great job @ Bret.

 

[Old Time Tiger]

macnaz, I said this elsewhere in regards to watching a semi at Leichhardt 2 years back. All the Bulldogs were there to support their NSW Cup team.

Bet you plenty that the Bulldogs players were at Belmore yesterday to watch the NSW Cup. As I said, this comes back to the culture at the club under a switched on CEO compared to Hunphreys.

Why not make the players attend the finals football games ? it ain't that hard.

 

[Joe's Magpies]

They were not there because they had beau Ryan's bucks party on the harbour.

 

[innsaneink]

How long prior is a bucks organized?

Seems like they werent expecting to be playing this time of year for some time

how can this happen when you make the magpies dissapear.Great news if you are a balmain supporter but that has always been the agenda of the merge for balmain to rise

Balmain (BRET) have been gone for quite a while

Humpty can have WTs wearing Balmain type jumpers, trot out Sirro benny & Junior ad nauseam.....if that keeps em happy
