Lee Hagipantelis

They suggested he was offering Moses a lift everyday and that he was treating Moses like a 16 year old kid. LH says that’s false. One of them then says he’s creepy. Just because you’re a rusted on fan doesn’t mean you can make up stories about people on your podcast or defame them.

The boys also retracted the comments and apologised. No doubt they have learned from this. They will still keep it real though. It's one of the reasons I listen to them. I'm over all the sugar-coating.

I’m sure they will. It’s a lesson for anyone in their situation.

Lee puts himself out in to the public like no other NRL chairman does and he clearly has some rods missing and is really selfconscious that he has to respond to everything so defensively. He even responded to claims the BBQ was a weird gift. The guy needs to sit down and STFU.

We're always on the backfoot. He goes into bat
for the club, I don't mind it. With all the talk about
him being a businessman, a good businessman,
a lot on here forget that he's a lifelong fan...

Good for you. They're a bunch of plums. I'd
rather them redirect their attention to Pascoe
than Lee. They're a bunch of sooks & liers.
Bechara's personal vendetta against Lee
is piss-weak. He said Pascoe was on his
way out a fortnight ago too. Very adamant

They give it to Pascoe also don't worry about that.

He says he didn’t. He reckons he never spoke to Moses.

Ah fair enough. If the whole situation is some made up fan fiction it’s a weird one by the pod.

I just hope, if LH has denied it publicly, that it’s true. No doubt Fox News will chase it up and there’s no reason for Moses to lie if asked.

This contains his side of the story.

This masthead has been told that Hagipantelis sent a defamation concerns notice to the producers of the WestsLife Podcast after co-host Rob Bechara claimed that the chairman had spoken to Moses and offered to “pick him up every day in his Ferrari and drive him to Concord”.

The statement has been strongly denied by the chairman, who claims he never spoke to Moses during the negotiation process.
 
At the end of the day rugby league players couldn’t care less if Humpty Dumpty was the chairman of the club they for,
The players focus is on whether or not they get along with the coach and whether or not they can see themselves forming a good combination with their team mates.
It’s highly unlikely any NRL player invites their club chairman over for a BBQ.

Precisely this. And how he dresses and what
car he drives, or whenever he has a soundbyte
in the media, (coincidentally most of the time
he's defending the club). It really irks me. To
think our fortunes would have changed in the
last few years if we had another Chairman and
sponsor shits me up the wall. The hate for Lee
is unwarranted and mostly personal imho

When was the last time you seen uncle Nick from the roosters on TV or any where else , you don’t , he does his work behind closed doors , Lee needs the lime light , and has his pumpkin head on screen anytime he can. He’s a grub

At the end of the day- Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall and had a great fall. If the coach doesn't get along with the chairman then there can be no cohesion. Winning starts Monday morning. For example- Wests Tigers.

Is it fact or rumour that Benji doesn’t get along with the chairman ?
Again I don’t think any rugby league coach invites their chairman over for a BBQ, doesn’t mean they can’t get along for the betterment of the rugby league club they both have an invested interest in.

Rumour or fact - the results are in place. Either way - its not working.

Personally, if the club was not a a complete train wreck of a football club, I couldn’t care less if he played dress up and went on every media outlet he could buy his way into and make a complete fool of himself.

Unfortunately the club is a train wreck. About to collect both another spoon and another coach, nuking another 5 year rebuild.

His money and “pull” have done nothing but diminish the brand even further and his position is unattainable. The only positive thing the Hat can do for wests is resign. If he takes his money, ok. Club existed before him and will exist after him. I’d expect, after some time and distance between the club and him, they could attract other sponsors.

First step, he has to go. Stop the bleeding.

Aren’t you following the bouncing ball TFO, he’s already said he’s a protected species so no chance of him going anywhere( unless of course the board tries to move him, and then watch the legal man fly into action).
Plus he’s got the sponsorship leverage to use as protection so I repeat he ain’t going nowhere !!!

Not going to compare the pair mate, I said what
I said. Politis has the wool over plenty of eyes -
has been like that for over 2 decades to be fair.
Winning will change a lot of things around here,
genuinely think we'll go alright in 2024-onwards.
I know folks are tired but the pieces are in place
