Why do you think HBG are sabotaging the club?
Quite honestly there are so many rumours flying around...and that's all they are, rumours...and so many people getting hot under the collar.
I'm just worried with all this bolarkey that's going on and upsetting people, how many Balmain people have had heart attacks.
I think we all need to take a deep breath and settle down until the proof of what has happened comes out.
If a guy like Laundy becomes the owner yes it will very much be a pro Balmain approach. I Despise HBG for what they’ve done but let’s not get it twisted. Removing one side out of the merger not matter which way is not the answer.Sorry this is not a pro Balmain approach. It is a pro Wests Tigers approach. HBG has to go

I’m only talking about the old people that are problematic.hey!!! wash your mouth out with soap Tito Marshall.
I'm not going anywhere till I'm at least 90.
My father got to 97 and my mother 99.
I have longevity in my family you cheeky young person.
I don’t understand how anyone outraged by HBG and their supposed motivations to bring the Magpies back could be in favour of selling to Laundy after he blatantly laid out his motivations on what direction he’d take the club in.If a guy like Laundy becomes the owner yes it will very much be a pro Balmain approach.

I was interested in Laundy's view as a successful businessman on the WTs.Well ..the only thing I could suggest is that it might be the lesser of two evils… the club is going to be ran into the ground under the current owners dysfunction
I could imagine having his hotel business linked to the WTs' brand would be hugely beneficial to him especially on the SW growth area.I don’t disagree… the NRL needs to stipulate that any change of name and branding is not permitted…is that a deal breaker for Laundy ? I can’t say I truly know …but I suspect not..
Thanks for your support! You have exactly NO idea of what @Demps @Spartan117 @Lauren and I do to keep this place anywhere near acceptable. I've said it before, if adults could act with some respect and civility, we wouldn't have to spend hours on here deleting posts, editing foul language, sending warnings, and copping delightful inbox messages!YEP - but the mods here let the pro-Magpies trolls run rampant because they were blind to reality!

Hopefully the NRL putting $12m into the club will chose to move in a different direction than HBG.He is a successful businessman… I think money issues for the club would cease to exist …
Having said that ..I don’t care who owns the team… just give me someone that can oversee some success …. How many more years of failure do we need to see from the current lot ?
The amount of abuse you hurl out, I’d think you’d be on your hands and knees in gratitude that they haven’t banned you for good. You get a shit ton of leeway my friend,YEP - but the mods here let the pro-Magpies trolls run rampant because they were blind to reality!
I've just had a trawl through old Denny's Instagram and it checks out. He follows a tonne of women that would be half (if not younger) his age. Many of which have links to only fans pages on their profile.

HBG has created the division - we were forewarned.I don’t understand how anyone outraged by HBG and their supposed motivations to bring the Magpies back could be in favour of selling to Laundy after he blatantly laid out his motivations on what direction he’d take the club in.
Me too.Done and done
Blatantly laid out his motivations ? Where? What are they? Is he specific in anything he says?I don’t understand how anyone outraged by HBG and their supposed motivations to bring the Magpies back could be in favour of selling to Laundy after he blatantly laid out his motivations on what direction he’d take the club in.
We need to complain to the NRL so they are aware of our distaste.

Prompt:
Draft a formal request to the NRL asking them to review the Holman Barnes Group’s licence following their removal of the newly appointed independent Wests Tigers board. Emphasise that the decision appears self interested, conflicts with good governance standards, and does not reflect the best interests of the Wests Tigers, the NRL, its fans, or the long term stability of the club. The tone should be firm, factual, and centred on governance integrity and stakeholder impact.
The NRL have stated the license is for Wests Tigers over many years. If Laundy were to buy the incompetent ones out, then it would be reasonably safe to assume the name would not change.Purely hypothetical question, Steve. Would you be happy if Laundy bought HBG out and restored Balmain Tigers to primacy and relegated the Magpies to also rans or even non-events?
As I said purely hypothetical and not looking to start WW3.
As I said to you yesterday, if you want to preach unity, do it by actually referencing the club we are today and moving them forward, not stating you’d make sure one of its parents are looked after.Blatantly laid out his motivations ? Where? What are they? Is he specific in anything he says?
The only comment I saw was he had a fondness for Balmain.. if there's more out there id like to know . But if all this outrage is based on that one comment then it's completely unfounded speculation. You can be nostalgic about Balmain whilst bekng able to serve the best interest of the Wests tigers.. he's a billion dollar businessman for christ sakes .
No one's concerned about the Canterbury connection but they worried about Balmain? Lol come on
