No I don't believe it is.Does anyone know if the Wests Tigers constitution or corp governance statement is available online? I can’t find it from my searches.

A fair chunk of our Wests Tigers fan base have already made their minds up they want the heads of Lee and Pascoe to roll without really knowing the good or the bad they have done during their tenure with us and without a proper understanding of the challenges they have faced.
So you are saying they need to donate around $4m plus they donate around $2m to the Tigers which is not mandated? I’m not surprised they are reviewing the club if this is the case. They’ve potentially thrown around $18m down the toilet under Pascoe’s watch.
I think that may be the case but doesn't mean it was predetermined. The review has been running for about 3 weeks.
Yes. as I said in another post, the comp was still almost amateur back then. The game has changed in leaps and bounds in all facets, the change to the physique of the players, the cash available the resources and most importantly the exposure. The club tried hard back then to live off the back off the local community love of the Tiger mascot, Benji, his flick pass and side step and believed that because they was adored by a community of school kids that that represented the greater view.
It shouldn’t have gone to this point. People might be threatening to walk away completely now but that doesn’t capture the many thousands who have part walked away over the last ten years and contribute a small fraction of what they would have if the club was showing any semblance of competence. It’s a crying shame it’s gone on unchecked so long.
I don’t know why you are not conducting the review, you know everything and have all the solutions, just not willing to share with anyone 🤷♂️

Really I was concerned that it was only 2000 signatures out of our 20,000+ on that petition. But even still it was enough to convince one of our owners to look deeper into how things are placed currently. We should all feel honoured to some point that the club is taking this seriously and is actually looking to it’s target market for validation.
So because I'm not qualified to do the job that excludes me from having an opinion on who is?
Yeh, I get your point. Apart from a regular audit, they’re pretty much left on their own? So with that in mind, they could become lazy and do things in a way that is more habitual? At least if you’re having a review conducted by someone from an aged care facility, he’s more likely to question certain behaviours? I mean unlike the guy who comes from an nrl background who considers the same behaviour the norm?
I think you’re talking about the chair and I’m about the reviewer?
No idea
The club should be honoured that fans still support them after by far the most abysmal NRL run in the modern era. At least Newcastle's spoons had semi appearances before and after. Without fans, what is an NRL club?
Doing nothing would mean the next 5-10years are lost (if we survive at all). A review is/was critical and necessary and the WA have initiated it. Personally I am grateful and I think the podcast guys have gone about this exactly the right way to get things done.
