    Mate they all ready treat the club like they own it. Adopt a system of governance that puts the best people for WTs in control and make them accountabile and then no problem with HBG. I think most were satisfied at the end of this year until the blow up.

    Which makes the individuals expendable if they consistently fail. Not the case for private ownership

    My understanding is that none of the individuals that make the decisions own anything Gal. They are not private investors - they are the beneficiaries of the debenture system that gives them power and appears to be factional not merit based - given the bloodshed in recent times.

    Mate it doesn't matter who has the majority if the people you are working with are not pulling in the same direction - hence the review. They had a majority then and three directors got dumped and banned on the back of it. No way Richardson would have signed on without an independent board for...

    At this point I dont know who is on the board - just like the begining of last season when we were still waiting for the independent directors to be appointed after what took an age. I'd be quite happy for them to be working together as a unit for the WTs not the Magpies or Balmain and never...

    Geez Gall we are all bias to a degree but HBG have given us plenty of reasons to blow up given the reason for the frustration was at their own hand. One minute we are celebrating the appointment of one of the best CEOs in the game and next minute one year into his deal at WTs he leaves with...

    That wasn't in Luai's contract. It was after two years and plenty of players only sign contracts for two years.

    Fact - Julie Romero dumped less than 12 months after being made chair of board - no explanation. Fact - HBG sacked independents - retaining HBG reps - after what most considered was an improved season. Fact - the board via Paton said they fully supported Richardson knowing that he publically...

    My theory is Chads on HBGs PR team

    Good old Chad doesnt know anything when defending HBG's actions but defends them consistently as the aggressors, but when it comes to Richardson and OFarrelll still doesn't know anything but comes up with a theory to discredit them.

    It's gone beyond amusing though hasn't it? I guarantee you would never have supported the boardroom fiasco's if the shoe was on the other foot. Blind loyalty is great when you are flying high but in a professional sporting competition "the people" - under the organizations selection process-...

    More of the same - great. That should generate a whole lot of new fans when the old diehards die off and Benji's icon status is no longer a drawcard with players. The sleeping giant they tell us - HBG have mastered the sleeping part

    HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

    We wouldn't be talking about this at all if they stuck to the plan - but we never know from one season to the next who or what is motivating their decisions because none of them appear to be in the best interest of the club or the fans. The last thing fans want is more hostility at board level...
