The team and coach was actually assembled by hbg
The only signing I believe was may midyear under the new board , or are you saying because who is the actual board members determines if players play shit ?

For shits and giggles, let's do a comparison of Wests Tigers NRL team vs Roosters.

Wests Tigers
Bula - WT debut
Turuva - bought
May - bought
To'a - bought
Skelton - bought
Luai - bought
Doueihi - bought (but was a WT junior)
May - bought
Koroisau - bought
Pole - WT debut
KPP - bought
SamFainu - bought
Twal - WT debut
LFainu - bought (WT debut)
SiFainu - WT debut
Hunt - bought
Seyfarth - WT debut

Roosters
Tedesco - bought (WT junior)
Tupou - Syd debut
Smith - Syd debut
Toia - Syd debut
Marky - Syd debut (via rugby)
Walker - Syd debut
DCE - bought (approached Roosters for a contract so he could transition to coaching in their system)
Leniu - bought
Watson - Syd debut (and return from Newcastle)
Collins - Syd debut
Crichton - bought
Radley - Syd debut
Whyte - Syd debut
Iohelu - Syd debut
Wong - Syd Debut

Thanks Wests Ashfield for your great work focus in setting up a pathways recruitment, development, and retention system which has led to the bulk of the team in 2025 consisting of bought players.

You could of kept Ivan
Could of kept Madge
Dennis likes to look at…..

Ivan wouldn't have stayed, he was already "back in Penrith" the moment Gus sucked up to him and begged him to return.

If you can’t plug it into a wall and bleed battlers dry it’s not their area.

Hops has gotta be one of the lowest forms of human life, he will probably survive the next ice age.

It’s a chant dude, you get the gist.

‘It will always be Wests Tigers’: V’landys’ promise to long-suffering fans

The NRL will never allow Balmain or Western Suburbs to be kicked out of the joint venture as head office seeks to quarantine the football team from the latest dramas.

I’d like to know what they’d be willing to let the club go for, $50 million?? Wrexham has been in a big story in England, maybe there’s others out there looking to do the same.

Stay away from hoppa's thumbs up, it will take your breath away.

"The purpose of the Committee which reports to the Board, is to identify and recommend suitable candidates for debenture or Board positions (as directed by the Board), who meet the recruitment criteria set out by the Board. The Committee will meet as often as necessary, typically between March and June each year. Additional meetingsmay be convened if debenture vacancies arise outside this review period."


Recent admissions to the group
Leo Epifania - WSDRLFC 'member-elected' director
Allan Fallah - WSDRLFC 'member-elected' director
Bob Cairns - WSDRLFC 'member-elected' director
Tony Raciti - APIA Leichhardt

Wests Ashfield have bought an equity stake in APIA Leichhardt football club.

Boys club.

Also, Clare Burgess is a debenture holder. Her suitability is she is Palpatine's wife.

Couldn't think of anything worse

HBG is making its contingency plans in preparation for Richardson’s potential exit and are considering parachuting recently departed Manly chief Tony Mestrov into an interim role.

Mestrov must be desperate.

he’ll appoint his best mate seibold as coach and we can win a few more spoons with brooksey at the helm.

Great job to make a quick buck through a pay out - regardless of performance and still walk away with reputation intact what ever that maybe

Or ride the gravy train for 9 years like the last guy.

😮 This alone should have been grounds for his immediate dismissal from anything related to Wests Tigers

Amusing that Fatty compared Denny the Dinosaur to Garry Glitter!

Anyone who defends the HBG when their replacement for Richo is mastrov needs their head checked
