They haven't announced the $1.5m donation at the night yet

The board and playing group have put in $250k though

dumb question but are these donations going to be made public. If so OE can we get an update from WP if that rumour about 1.5 Mil is correct.

If so i have that is unbelievable news...Good stuff.
I've tweeted RFCO about it. Dopey me didn't realise my mobile needed refilling of $ so I can only receive messages from WP.


Anyway Coach Damian Hardwick just gave a rousing speech to the crowd. Brendon Gale has now taken the stage

Hardwick and Jack to be on the footy show when they cross to the Gala night. Garry Lyon said a sizeable chunk has been bitten into the $4m debt.

Finey on SEN said the word out of Tigerland is the night has been very successful.

Finey said the players went into a separate room and were preparing themselves and getting pumped up for the next week into round 1 beginning with tonight which will live in their memories.
