Ground Details: Home of the Balmain Tigers from 1934 to 1999, and has since been used as one of the home grounds for the Wests Tiger (merger between Balmain and Western Suburbs).

The ground was then redeveloped in the 1970's and converted into a rectangular field running North to South. These two old stands are currently closed to the public due to a termite problem. Their significance is the subject of a local heritage debate as the council figures out what to do about the problem.

Record Crowd 23,000 - Cronulla-Sutherland vs South Sydney - R.L. KB Cup Final - 12/8/1981
