Isnt it true that the $8 Million giving to the Western Suburbs Magpies and The Balmain Tigers to merge by the NRL was spent on Board Members and other useless non Team Related things?.

hence why West are going to leave the deal in 2005.

It went to the same place the extra 30 000 souths "fans" went after the charity shield.

See, everyone can take cheaps hots mate, but it's decidedly unproductive.

The $8,000,000 was put into the pokies out a Campbelltown so the Leagues Club could pay its share of the JV funding!!!!

I actually thought it was a fair question.

Wasn't the $8 mil supposed to bring a premiership to the merged team? And that was the reason for merging?

So, what did you get for your $8 mill? From where I sit, bugger all! Oh yeah, you did lose half the Balmain and Wests fans. Gee good deal!

How about answering the question rather than slagging off the poster?

well that's no surprise since you asked it .

can you make up your mind ? In the first post in this thread you wrote that the $8M ... "was spent on Board Members and other useless non Team Related things"... which of course was total shyte.

So, what did you get for your $8 mill?

sadly poor management/recruitment flushed most of it. But I don't think they were the first or will be the last to do that .

well at least it's better than what the bears fans got .

Vlad,
Now you seem like a decent kinda bloke, but how about looking at who actually posted the message... It's someone called "Izzo", I am Henson Park Hornets... Is there something that you are not picking up on?? Two different people....

How about finding out what happend to your $8mill then?

And yes the Bears got screwed, but they had no choice.... Balmain made the magical 14 teams.... That's the difference.
