HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

The Chad said:
No I cannot.

Can you explain why everywhere you see Wests Ashfield or Wests Tigers written about- they refer to the majority owners being HBG?

Thought experiment.

If the Australian government owns something. Does the government own it? Or the people just give whoever is in government the power to administer it?

If the government was mismanaging that asset, and you couldn't vote the government out, would your stance be the same?

The principles you are basing everything on is simply ownership related to name on title. The second layer to that, which you never address, is how ownership and control differ depending on the type of structure used to incorporate.

I'd agree with you while heartedly if it was a privately owned entity, but it's not in this case here.

Now need a HBG member who is a woman, that is fine, happy to have extra females on the board, but I wonder who that could be? *begin sarcasm* Do we happen to know any female debenture holder who is female? Hmmm. *end sarcasm*

Seemed genuine.

Sounded fairly knockabout and could hold a conversation.

Didn't push back on me sharing HBG opinions, but was keen to bring the conversation back to the football side of things and the positivity around that.

He has had success under dysfunctional ownership in previous roles.

Yep.
We would find another owner in a heart beat.
They don't contribute alot either, most of it comes from the NRL

Sweet.

That's what you go the NRL with. Here's a better option.

And right now, they contribute more than any other 'owners'...

For off-market businesses yes.

Not the only way you'll appreciate.

We found something you know about!

Now, to be fair- I don't know enough about it to offer suggestions. Only that it is how the company operates.

I'm kicking myself for actually making a suggestion in the first place on this one.

You keep yapping away and ignoring relevant questions from people.

Out of curiosity, what's your connection to HBG? I mean, it's pretty obvious the connection is there.

If I've missed questions that need answering- I am sorry. Had a few things thrown at me the last few days.

Absolutely no connection to HBG. Live in Qld, former Balmain fan.

Ask weststigers- he'll tell you I don't even understand how the HBG thing really works.

There is no agenda other than- people are acting ABSOLUTELY RIGHT with very little information.

And when questioned- the most common response is some kind of abuse.

Have your rally/march/Wests Tigers Fan Party. Rage on.

But maybe find out why the NRL allowed HBG to take control. Or why O'Farrell etc are happy coming back to a HBG run board. Or why Richo isn't coming back. Or if there was anything in the original statement from HBG that was of importance.

None of these things are known. But we rage on.
