I was told after three years.

Can't become a general member until after 3 years but that may be shortened

It's their fault we're in this mess. It's their fault our pathways are a shambles. It's their fault the club is the most underfunded club in the competition.

We don't produce good players. On the occasion we do they leave so they can actually develop.

Our owners steadfastly refuse to invest in Wests Tigers, and even the Wests Magpies for that matter. They spend the bare minimum to keep the club going. That's it. The bare minimum is not sufficient anymore.

In SG ball and Harold Matts we have 2 sides, whereas most clubs have one. Yet still all other clubs spend more on their one club than we do on both of our combined.

We need to develop talent. We can't do that without money. Either we try to start matching the dogs and Penrith or the club will eventually fold. We've been going down the same path for way too long, there is no end in sight. We are still an amateur club run by amateurs.

We either need Wests Ashfield to wake up and start investing heavily in Wests Tigers, or to sell us to someone who will. That's the campaign.

We can't keep going on like this

This is a crazy thread they won't sell because they don't have to and the NRL won't do anything because they don't have to

They is no law against being stupid and if anything we are all participants in this

We are all participants in this circle of Stupidity

There is no escape from this only death

Drugs are Bad
Drinking is Bad
Supporting the Tigers is stupid

But that's life

We're on a road to nowhere
Come on inside
Takin' that ride to nowhere
We'll take that ride

I disagree.
PVL wants rugby league success, not a club who are being run by a mediocre soccer club.

The NRL has no leverage over stupid people and the other clubs love to pick the bones of the Tigers

Unless the police investigate corruption or the NSW gaming board find something nothing will change

It's like a fat kid eating ice cream hoping to loss weight

I have no idea how NSW l&g don't take action when these guys keep creating and spending members money on lawsuits for personal vendettas. That is in breach of legislation.

I just feel these guys are typical public servants who roll in each day for a pay check and thats it.

If this isn't the perfect example of a club that should have it's lisence striped off them I don't know what is?

Well thats it. They aren't his personal costs I believe. All paid by the members of HBG. Not to their benefit

Yeh but pvl doesn't really care about rhe tigers

Doesn’t he? That’s no good…has he said this publicly?

They could never do it to much bad publicity for the NRL

Just wish someone could help was thinking Richo could do it

But the rot has set in other clubs have dug themselves out for brief stints but not us the Dragons will push hard for top 8 next year the Tiger players are soft it's sad

Hopefully a few hard heads can bring some shovels to dig the club out of it have picked up 3 if we can nab 1 more experience player with over 100 NRL games who's an effort player we have a chance I was hoping Cameron McInnes or something like him would be available just putting in week in week out trains hard plays hard

Do you know what the actual policy is when they can step in? My memory its more monetary/insolvency/default reasons. But could be wrong

 

[cochise]

You're are going to have to give some context if you want to tell people what to do

Because there may be an opportunity to get a greater say in the direction.
