TIM SHEENS - WESTS TIGERS COACH Wests Tigers have one of the most talented and exciting playing rosters in the National Rugby League competition. In 2010, playing finals football in September was our goal, and this goal could not have been achieved without the support of our Members. Members provide the platform for the success for the Wests Tigers, because for a club to be strong on the field, it must first be strong off it. The dedication and commitment of our Members creates a winning culture that was reflected in the team’s results this season. Wests Tigers are one of the best supported teams in the NRL and our crowd figures are testament to this. Our Membership base doubled in 2010, but we need your support to reach our full potential and become the club with the biggest off field team. Which side of the line will you stand on in 2011?

ROBBIE FARAH There is nothing better than playing in front of a sell out home crowd with the whole stadium behind the boys. Leading the Wests Tigers onto the field and seeing the stands filled with black, white and gold inspires me and the team, as we know we are a part of something special. 2010 marked a return to finals football for the Wests Tigers and our Members played a huge part in our success. Their support was unwavering and in those tight matches, they gave us the advantage we needed to win. If you want to be on our side and make a difference, cross the line that divides and become a Wests Tigers Member in 2011. I look forward to your support in what we anticipate to be another successful year for the Wests Tigers.
