Brisbane Broncos Board: Football Operations Review
The Brisbane Broncos Board commissioned an independent review of the Club’s football operations, which has now been completed.www.broncos.com.au
Just because you don't hear about them doesn't mean they don't happen.
In saying that I would prefer the review to include upper management and governance.
How much would something like that cost. For a Public company wouldn't be cheap.

💯 that's what it's always been about.
The owners of the Wests Tigers have commissioned an independent review into the operations of the embattled club in a move that could have sweeping ramifications for the most powerful figures in Tigerland.
Sport Confidential was given a statement outlining the parameters of the review, which was rubber-stamped after more than 2000 club supporters signed a petition urging a review following a decade of abject disappointment.
The review will be conducted by former NRL chief financial officer Tony Crawford – now the managing director of Benchmarking Matters – and Gary Barnier, the managing director of Cooperage Capital Pty Ltd.

It sounds like it's being done by 2 finance dudes. This should sort things out 😅😅
Yes we did. Congratulations to you and your colleagues for kicking it off and driving it through. Having been involved in quite a few reviews in my working life, there are three critical steps from here on. First, the TOR will determine (or limit) the scope of the review. We'd be hoping for TOR that cover all aspects of WT performance including on-field performance. Second, the quality of the reviewers is fundamental to determining the issues to be resolved. Finally the willingness of whoever commissions the review to accept criticism and do something about it is the biggest challenge of them all.
Not wishing to sound negative because this is a great start. Just saying there's a lot of water still to flow under the WT bridge.

Is this the full extent of the article? Or only a snippet? Hopefully there's more detail...
Otherwise it certainly looks like a smokescreen, token gesture that will achieve nothing. We don't want a review into the finances and commercial strategies at WT (well not opposed to it, but it's not the primary objective).
The review mostly needs to focus on the football department, and decision making at the club over the past decade. Staff past and present would need to be interviewed, players, agents etc
What role has the ceo and board had in contract situations, how de we come to the decisions that the board makes etc

The owners of the Wests Tigers have commissioned an independent review into the operations of the embattled club in a move that could have sweeping ramifications for the most powerful figures in Tigerland.
Sport Confidential was given a statement outlining the parameters of the review, which was rubber-stamped after more than 2000 club supporters signed a petition urging a review following a decade of abject disappointment.
The review will be conducted by former NRL chief financial officer Tony Crawford – now the managing director of Benchmarking Matters – and Gary Barnier, the managing director of Cooperage Capital Pty Ltd.
The stunning development comes as it emerged that the club had waved farewell to experienced assistant coach David Furner and failed in a bid to prise respected head of football Peter Parr out of Newcastle.
The Tigers have aimed high in their search for a new football chief and Sport Confidential understands key officials sounded out Parr about his interest in joining the club.
Parr is believed to have offered a polite thanks but no thanks. His priorities are on continuing the revival that has begun at Newcastle.
While the Knights are flying, the Tigers have languished at the foot of the ladder and their owners have taken the extraordinary step of commissioning a review into the club’s governance in response to the pleas of frustrated fans.
“The board of the Holman Barnes Group has commissioned an independent report into the governance of Wests Tigers,” the club said.
“The board would like to thank all members and fans of Wests Tigers for their feedback in relation to this matter, especially all those that took the time to sign the petition that was submitted through the hosts of Wests Tigers podcast.
“While we are unable to set a specific time frame for the completion of the report, we are hopeful it is completed in a timely manner.”
The Tigers have been under immense scrutiny in recent seasons following a run of wooden spoons, the latest leading to the early departure of head coach Tim Sheens.
Chief executive Justin Pascoe has been at the centre of supporter concerns, having presided over nearly a decade of mediocrity at the Tigers.
Fans made their feelings known over the closing weeks of the seasons as they held damning signs in protest at the performance of the club and its chief executive.
The Holman Barnes Group – named after Wests legend Keith Holman and Balmain icon Keith Barnes – was established in 1955 to support the Western Suburbs.
It has grown exponentially since then including its ownership of the Wests Tigers – the group owns 90 per cent of the club with the remaining 10 per cent in the hands of Balmain.
It sounds like we have got Sir Humphrey Applebee to make the statement on our behalf,the part about "We are hopeful it is completed in a timely manner" sends shivers down my spine.
Hope to be proven wrong

My thoughts exactly. Well done though to the
guys that spearheaded the review through
the petition. Still a bit cynical but well done
