So you are calling that source from within the supporters group of the West Tigers a liar?

It is a shame what the tigers are doing with their amalgamation. I think there really needs a reframing of the League teams in Sydney. Not sure how it should be done but surely a north sydney and a south west sydney side should be running around.
Marngrook in the south west sydney region will interest a few but the place will remain RL heartland through and through. I wouldnt be surprised if the term Gayfl was born out campbelltown way.

Campbelltown was very strong in the SFL at one stage. In fact some of their matches drew around 3k which was more than some rl games. They were so strong, they left the SFL and played in the ACT. IMO if say North Sydney and Easts Sydney had joined them then there could have been the start of a very strong state league but it didn't happen that way and Campbelltown returned to the SFL and has never regained it's ascendancy.

I remember growing up in the Macarthur region and the Campbelltown Blues backed by Campbelltown Council took the grandstand from the Campbelltown Warriors RL club. Was funny watching RL supporter cry back then through the local rags. Didn't change anything though.
Looking even better now too with new seats and scoreboard added. =D> =D> =D>
Thanks for the grandstand RL. What we want, we get. :<> :<> :<>
