The Inner West mayor says there is still potential for the Wests Tigers to return to the site of the Balmain Leagues Club.

The derelict former Balmain Leagues Club site on Victoria Road, Rozelle will be rebuilt after it was dumped by the government.

The initial proposal was for the Wests Tigers Leagues Club to be redeveloped but there are doubts whether they will return to the Inner West.

Inner West Council Mayor Darcy Byrne told Deborah Knight it could still go ahead but may take years.

“There is the potential for there to be a Wests Tigers leagues club at rozelle when this development is concluded.”
