Taking a wrecking ball to the club! (Recent Media Reports)

[Magpie_Magic]

The only reason there is any talk at all about an external bid ( true or not) is the current board’s ineptitude and division.
It invites others to try to divide the merger even more.

But the WT board isn’t divided.

It implicates Balmain as did Leo's previous scuttlebutt with the review . Why should there be a link?

It is Balmain who must shut this latest NZ bid down.

 

[Kaito]

There has not been one thing to prove anyone from the Balmain side has instigated this or even shown interest in it.
It’s rubbish.
The sooner this board is cleaned out the sooner it all goes away.

%100 if anything it's the Wests members (on both
sides of the board) angling in 2 make a play for the
licence in 2030 and eventually do away with Balmain.

Doesn't matter whether true or not, — that scenario
makes way more sense than Balmain doing it TBF.
and it's absurd to even think they would 2 start with.

The whole thing is really an issue 4 a couple people...

 

[balmain boy]

I doubt very much that Richo is running the board, or on 2nd thoughts maybe he is, being the reason he just hasn't had the time to reply to the 2 emails I sent him.
And I am a member btw.
Re. the power-hungry imbeciles...there isn't any on the board now as the dishonest, backstabbing turncoats have been suspended.
Ps...Wow! 😱 my messages have now hit 72. If you blokes keep on sending what I assume are Love notes, the WTF main frame will blow a valve or something 😆.

You're either Burgess or more likely Cavanagh. Being a former head of the Magpies gets you no brownies on here mate.

 

[TigerJunior4]

Gee it's a pity the wording just wasn't exactly as you wanted it.
Is your wording correct, easy to read and comprehend 100% of the time mate?

Well can you explain Julie Romero’s opposition to the review and can you explain or justify her email directions to the board?

Again

But the WT board isn’t divided.

Itt is Balmain who must shut this latest NZ bid down.

How can you possibly say the board isn’t divided when you’ve got Dennis Burgess actively calling for a return to Wests Magpies and Julie Romero effectively instructing the board not to operate?

Julie’s email was nothing short of disgusting and was an attempt to cease the Wests Tigers board from operating and performing its role.

There’s not even a full board in place because HBG headed by Julie and Mop head Burgess keep delaying recruitment attemtps.

Like everyone points except you and your mate BZN, it’s about good governance and leadership structures at the Wests Tigers. We absolutely would not be in this mess if Julie and Dennis actually made an effort to implement the review recommendations. Instead they keep delaying and creating barriers.

It’s nothing short of vomit inducing. Like I said before do us all a favour and go start a bushrangers forum. Spare us your divisive sentiments and trolling behaviour.

 

[balmain boy]

But not since this has blown up, as far as I'm aware. I have to say HBG's media management is terrible.

That's what you get from unqualified people. They couldn't even spell the name of the club correctly in a press release...

Evidence?

It is HBG prerogative.

Owners prerogative

Don't know BZN,but I'm sure many share my viewpoint but are discouraged from posting here

Why should non binding review recommendations have anything to do with people outside the ownership?

It’s nothing short of vomit inducing. Like I said before do us all a favour and go start a bushrangers forum

Who?

. Spare us your divisive sentiments and trolling behaviour.

What rubbish.

Sorry I don't subscribe to your narrative.

There is no bid. Christchurch emailed about 20-30 clubs asking if they'd be theoretically interested in any sort of partnership. There's no suggestion Balmain ever considered anything. It's all a massive beat up from someone with an agenda...

 

[BZN]

Are you here for any other reason than to peddle the Magpies and Haunt Cochise?

Don't know about peddle the Magpies batboy, but haunting @cochise sounds exciting and is a brilliant suggestion so thank you for the lead in.

Just before my wife and I got married I sent a male stripper to her work and even though she was a bit embarrassed when she had to extract a note written for her from the blokes very brief shorts with her teeth, she and her work mates really enjoyed the act.

So, when I haunt Cochise, I definitely won't be going as a stripper male or female.
If I did go as a male stripper Cochise would only laugh uncontrollably and that's not the idea of a true haunting.
A true haunting 👻 is designed to really really scare someone 👻, so I will go dressed as one of my all-time favorites as a kid at the circus, and you know what I am going to say...yes you guessed correctly... a clown...🤡😁🤡 due to the fact most of you on here think I am a clown 🤡🙃 🤡or probably something worse even, but that's ok, I'll even turn the other cheek to you so you can have a go at that as well 👍😀

Ps...I've now got 89 😵😱 people that care enough to send messages, but I'm now up to page 131 so it shouldn't be long at all till I catch up.

[TigerJunior4]

Mate you really need to be more mindful of who you are laughing at, or in other words putting down.
Seems to me you are letting your prejudice show.

Just for people that don't know prejudice can have harmful effects on individuals and society, leading to inequality and social tension.

Evidence?

It is HBG prerogative.

Owners prerogative

Sorry I don't subscribe to your narrative.

Who? You know the team you dreamt up and advocated for replacing the Tigers but go ahead, play dumb and keep lying g through your teeth.

If you want to brown nose HBG go right ahead, but don’t think they can do whatever they want to the club and run it into the ground due to ‘owner’s prerogative,’ as you put it.

You call it non-binding but all board members voted for it unanimously. Why vote for it only to walk back on it a few short months later. Shows a lack of conviction and integrity but what would you know about that? It’s clear you’re just here to create division and keep this bs Wests vs Balmain narrative.

There’s also plenty of evidence to support what I’m saying including leaked email from Julie herself. Unfortunately all you peddle is bs, lies, and deception.

 

[BZN]

Why is Burgess not being called out on here? You you only have to have a whiff of some previous affiliation to Balmain to be labelled a sympathiser - whatever that means- with not one ounce of power to change anything and yet here we have a Director accused of talking about bringing the Magpies back.

Gee I thought I had told you before that people do telltails that aren't necessarily true.
Where's the evidence mate, where's the truth. That's what yuh gotta look for and I can tell you for a fact...you definitely won't find it on Truth Social.

 

[batboy]

For over the decade, HBG have hidden behind independent chairpersons, a compromised puppet CEO, several high-profile and sacked management staff and coaches, numerous sacked football staff, etc, taking the fall for sustained poor performance. Not once have HBG been held accountable in name for the rot at WT.

Now, finally, these cronies are the ones under the blow torch. It’s about time. None of the current HBG board members can be on the WT board. They are all tarnished in one way or another. Burgess, Romero, Montgomery and Tropiano in particular have to somehow be cut adrift and have absolutely nothing to do with football.

Do you all now see how the WT board and club has been a circus for the past decade, when the majority on the WT board are on this machiavellian HBG board. Rarely do you hear of a board descending to this sort of state, and the only reason it does is because of self-interest, empire-building, and ego. And the ones who are instigating this are accountable to no one but their own.

Got a mate who's a Parra loyalist, Has been through the same thing with self serving Boards etc.
Reckons we're about 18 months from where they got to before change was enforced.

 

[BZN]

Also I didn't comment on you post about Gary Barnier as it is irrelevant as he is not on the Wests Tigers board.

that's a rubbish reply mate.

 

[cochise]

Mate you really need to be more mindful of who you are laughing at, or in other words putting down.

Just for people that don't know prejudice can have harmful effects on individuals and society, leading to inequality and social tension.

There really is no self awareness with you is there?

You are already trying to haunt me as a clowns.

 

[BZN]

They clearly feel threatened and are trying to goad Cochise into an emotional response that they’ll claim as a victory in their little public tete-a-tete. It’s a cute game that lawyers play to make themselves feel powerful. They know the truth but will do anything to avoid admitting it. The objective is to belittle your opponent and win by any means possible. Being intellectually dishonest and moraly bankrupt is not against the rules of the game. It’s actually a compliment to Cochise that they’ve deemed him a worthy opponent.

Theres worthy opponents, and then there are worthy opponents.
I can't help it if the truth hurts some people Big Red, and you use that as a reason to protect him.
I'm confident he will tell you he is big enough to protect himself.
So, it seems to me all you are doing is sucking up to him for some reason.
Maybe you think he will grant you a seat at the Wests Tigers table?

 

[hammertime]

Evidence?

It is HBG prerogative.

Owners prerogative

Here's the thing magpie. Julie and Dennis are not owners. They have a fudiciary duty to act in the interests of members and the community. It's written in legislation.

They do not get to exercise their own personal prerogative.

 

[twentyforty]

Embarrassment to who? The average league fan wouldn’t have a clue what goes on in our boardroom.

That’s right, they probably cover up 90% of their blunders. 😂

Subjective

They can exercise that prerogative as representatives of the ownership.

Not to say they should, however.

But we can't link other issues.

Are you calling me a suck BZN? Apparently that’s a sackable offence around here 😂. I’m not here to protect anyone, a show of solidarity maybe but ultimately I don’t believe your story and I’m not convinced you do either.

You hit a key word. Representatives. They need to have a lens of the members (owners) first and foremost with every decision.
