Looks like a chesty bond advert.

It's disgusting how the suggestion Richo has done something wrong gets legs over time as people continue to repeat it.

If Richo has defrauded his employer, it's a police matter. Poor form from those repeating it with zero evidence.

Theres a few seperate issues to this whole saga over the last 3 weeks where online fake news has just exploded....say it often enough...over and over and over.... it gets enough exposure, the masses online do not research they just pass it on as fact or "I heard blah blah. Propaganda.

Well summarised

Kinda the point of a supporter forum mate.

The general public may not care like we do, but they sure as hell think the place is a basket case.

This forum is heading towards being a basket case if this sort of rubbish is allowed to continue.

Thanks for trying to introduce some intelligent thoughts into this thread.

You're a funny bloke.

He's a champion, as he likes honest and open speech in trying to make people accountable for their claims.

When this whole thing kicked off, you painted this picture of yourself as being "open minded". Here I am trying to engage with you, also with an open mind.. and every time I ask you direct questions, you refuse to answer them

You keep saying that the voices of a few within HBG don't represent the entire organisation... So I gave you the definition of what the role of a CEO and role of a director are.

So I will ask you again...

Are you of the opinion that the HBG CEO and board do not represent its members?

Because the HBG board are the ones who voted the independent board members out...

A follow up question is - if they don't represent the best interest of the JV/hBg, then who are the people that do represent HBG? Are they simply not in power?

I Understand you have the most open mind here and are open to discussion, so I appreciate you will not avoid the questions I have posed.

Thank you in advance..

Unfortunately for you mate it does seem the magpies are finally in control !

 

[KevB]

Do they also realise that getting rid of an ex-premier can also create a lot of enemies. You never know when the liberals will be back in power and we have a lot of committed funding from govt. (More than HBG group has tipped in over last 15 years)

If you are a rusted in liberal voter!

Maybe.. but they jumped pretty quickly to reinsnate the directors - so who is really in control?

Don't think you'd hear any of us complain about an awesome black jersey. That doesn't mean we can't also have an orange jersey.. there's only one side complaining about the colour or the jersey.

And even still I don't understand the complaint about the jersey from that side.

This is the first time since 2013 that the home jersey has been predominantly orange and only the second time in the club's 25 year history.

What I like about the new jerseys is it's the first time in a long time where it feels like a Wests Tigers jersey.

25 years on and I can't believe we're still having the same arguments.

No club would exist without the NRL grant. You make out as though Wests Tigers are the only club that gets it.

Our club required intervention by the NRL, the major financial contributor, due to boardroom issues.

Burgess has replaced recent vacancies with hardcore Magpies-centric debenture holders. Three of the four are basically the WSDRLFC soldiers and board members who weren’t already part of HBG.

Burgess has played the numbers well.

This is where I don't understand the intervention of PVL. All he's done is make things worse.

 

[liltiger]

There was a debenture holder at the rally.

Need to get them on the pod see if any pressure can be applied by trying to turn more debenture holders to their way of thinking.

Was thinking the other day it wouldn't be surprising if him and his family enjoy an all expenses paid trip round the world courtesy of HBG at some point this year.

He was actually on the pod back un January.

When you saw him at the rally, if you got a chance to have a yarn did he say how many other holders were against what was done to our board

Not many, he pretty much is on his own. He actually is against the debenture system.

That makes it so much harder. Though if your in a closed system that's protected and have all the power what incentive is there to change.
