Richardson didn't realise he had a bomb under him with a timer on it.... And the options only expired Nov 1st. Not 12 months. Which other clubs has Richo failed at? He precided over some of our best signings and resigning. People don't see him as a saviour. But there is a distinct difference in...

HBG were in charge of the board during those losses too mate. Definitely not a cop out. Who hired Jason Taylor? The instability of the club is exactly why Jerome has those clauses. Galvin you could argue, but I'd also suggest the damage with him was done early under pascoe.

If we lose bula, it will land squarely at the feet of Holman Barnes Group directors. Deadset rank amatures blowing up the club during the negotiations.

They'll claim bullying and go to the dogs.

Bro, HBG are going to remove you from their fan club!

I mean, I think the knee jerk decision was needed. Benji may have walked, then the players. HBG and the club really would have been in an abyss. In benjis interview. He mentioned that both he and HBG approached each other. He would have made demands. So it was needed. But only needed because...

I dare say based on his interview benji was threatening to walk and they needed stability. Which they wouldnt have been in the position for if they didnt pull this dumb ass board removal in the first place. We shouldn't critize the benji extension, thats unfair on benji. The original board...

They like to pull it when we're travelling at speed down the road too.

Yeah 100%. Either they are lying about richo, or that they've had an issue at the board but reinstated the directors. Or.... this is a pure power play focused on their own egos. Either one of these angles suggests they are incompetent, lying or just plain naracists doing the wrong thing by the...

Benji has a monumental task. How can they assess his performance now as coach? HBG keep laying spikes on the road but expect him to get to the destination. If he gets us to top 8, hes a miracle worker.

They only know that after the board was dissolved and PVL stepped in. Given the lack of rationale to do what they did, I'd question still if those actions were based on that. Let's hope they start to show some leadership and earn some trust back by reimplementing the report. If Richo was the...

Thats not long ago and after 25 years of the merged club, so what would make you think that they've changed that in the last 18 months? They haven't exactly won trust with the fans or anyone in the rugby league community

Lee H is many things, but i don't think hes a liar - hes stated directly as such. The other piece of evidence is a lot of the directors who seem to refuse wearing Wests Tigers kit. Then you have the whole recent powerplay which seems to be for no reason. So in that vaccum of information, people...

I think there is consensus here that what HBG did was poorly managed and completely wrong. If richo did something bad, or flirted with the line, at best he didnt recieve the bare minimum of the discussions or board escalations that should have happened. So, richo has suffered because of this...

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)
