Balmain Tigers declare WAR ON NRL! Balmain Tigers RLFC has declared war on the NRL for its “unjust and ruthless” behaviour according to Balmain Tigers chairman Dr Leslie Glenn. In a hard hitting Open Letter to all Balmain Tigers members and supporters Dr Glenn called on all to join in the fight for the proud foundation Club’s survival. He encouraged all to support the Club’s new Fighting Fund which will be officially launched on the 25th anniversary of the Balmain Tigers 1989 Grand Final on Wednesday September 24 at Tigers Five Dock at 6.30pm. Many members of the 1989 side will be present at the Fighting Fund launch. They include internationals Wayne Pearce, Benny Elias, Garry Jack, Steve Roach, Paul Sironen, Tim Brasher, Bruce McGuire, Gary Freeman, Andy Currier and Shaun Edwards, former Wallaby winger James Grant plus the likes of Michael ‘Ginger Meggs’ Neil, Kevin Hardwick, Steve O’Brien, Steve Edmed and Michael Pobjie. Dr Glenn said that the Club was hit by the Global Financial Crisis during its attempt to develop the Leagues Club site at Rozelle and the takeover by the then State Government for the planned and disastrous Metro rail project. Let’s remember our iconic Laurie Nichols: Black-n-Gold Never Fold! Plan now to get to the Wednesday September 24 meeting. We will never give in! See ya there. THE GOOD NEWS is that the Tigers Holden Cup side – the players of the future – are still in the hunt for Grand Final glory when they skin alive the Bunnies this Friday at the SFS elimination final!
