There's quite a few more than just six ex Magpies fans, (well not ex 'cause technically we still support Wests Magpies in NSW Cup & juniors) on this forum, some of us even have "Tiger" in our handle.

If you can't say anything nice you shouldn't say anything at all, I am sure someone's mum said that once.

That is the true answer mate, tell me how the ownership is not dysfunctional? There is that much evidence surround the governance of our ownership group being a clown show that anyone that clains otherwise is deadset blind.
I grew up as a Balmain fan but I’ve barely thought about them in the last 25 years. I’m 43 and been a Wests Tigers fan way longer than I was a Balmain.
Anyone who is upset about how the Magpies or Balmain are treated are not a Wests Tigers fan they are still supporting their original club. Need to let it go and not mention it anymore.

It’s sad to to see the special people that think this is a Magpies vs Tigers agenda.
I don’t care who is the majority owner of the Wests Tigers, all I know is the current situation has to change. The HBG might be financially stable but it is not getting the desired results at the Wests Tigers, in fact it has had the worst possible result for the last 3 years.
For those that are against this movement, I sincerely ask what do you want moving forward?
The reason I ask is because your posts tell me your main objective is that HBG stays in control on their terms which supersedes Wests Tigers getting results. While majority of the forums main objective is to setup a permanent platform for Wests Tigers to not only get positive results but become the power house it should have already become. Clearly the way current things are from the top of the pyramid is not working and needs change.
Albert Einstein said 'Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.’ hence why something has to change.

Change started last year and is continuing. You want us to change again mid stream?

We need to implement the change in full not partially. This would be a non-issue if it was done in a timely manner and a review was aloud to take place.

That is a key point for me, there was supposed to be a audit after 12 months to ensure that the recommendations had been implemented, and this was not allowed to happen.
A public statement about why the recommendations had not been implemented was needed at this time. When civil war broke out at the key stakeholder again showing the dysfunction at ownership level them questions needed to be ask about the governance at that level.

Richardson said it's getting implemented fully. I don't think impatience is a reason to blow everything up. Has anything in the last 12 months coming out of wests tigers disappointed you? Management wise, obviously onfield sucked
Glad im not the only one seeing him like this.
Spamming trolling harrassing others...why have rules?
Mods?

Ok let’s just say we give them the benefit of the doubt. Why block the review? How can we have confidence with the HBG board when 3 board members were strategically removed? Did you forget a debenture member came out to essentially say this is BS
helps if it plays the wounded shunned abused victim ,with pleasant sarcastic wit to keep there target engaged

It’s time for real change at Wests Tigers. The fans deserve nothing less
It’s bizarre that in 2025 any registered club has such a closed-shop system of governance. Members and supporters have simply had enough of the backroom brawling.

I don't believe the review was blocked. Richardson said it's full steam ahead.
Need to balance free speech and debate
Especially when it doesn't agree with the majority.
The majority isn't always right.
In saying this, personal attacks and swearing ( including disguised swearing) are immediately deleted.

I wasn't anti anything before the recent developments at board level.
With that.. and then the nutters on here inflaming the foundation club agendas has made me what to lose any connects with the past.

It's not about correct or incorrect. When trolling, spamming and harrasing others, inciting arguments occur that rules clearly state are a breach.... That's free speech?
I guess.the rules should be re-written
Bit of a cop out imo
