Funny that, I remember reading that the petition wouldn't do anything, then funnily enough lo and behold the independant board members were installed under the recommendation of the review. In 10 days 4 board members were sacked. After that the fan and media pressure has had all 4 reinstated apart from Viola due to his choosing not no return. Our chair return, N.R.L threaten to take the club and place it into administration, Dennis Burgess a permanent fixture called out and step down from the board. Asic may yet investigate, I'm assuming now HBG will be under the N.R.L microscope. All because of the media and fan pressure and backlash. As soon as Burgess stepped down it was a sign HBG knew they screwed up royally. They've now shown they're vulnerable to pressure, another sign is as soon as it was leaked they were eyeing out Brad Arthur, players came out to back Benji they gave him an extension till 2030, another sign that they can't handle scrutiny and pressure. All from the fans and media. Don't underestimate what can or can't be achieved through a simple group of like minded people connected through a common cause.

I did notice a large police presence circling around...it was actually a very civil gathering. Was great to be amongst the best supporters in the nrl...good to see a raiders and manly jersey....and unfortuntely 2 roosters jerseys.
What sort of turn out was there Ink?

Good on all the guys & girls that went. Sorry I couldn’t be there with you.
Rally was good. I’m glad I went and stood up to these faceless incompetent debenture holders.
Good to have a firm date for when we DEMAND the reforms to be enacted. First trial game at Leichhardt.
Studies of major historical revolutions teach that it’s not a large majority that drives a revolutionary change. Revolutions are successful when a highly motivated and committed group within a population drives change. There were enough at the rally today to drive this change.

A ‘voice of the fans’ organisation has been setup. The sign up is via this QR code.
As you all know peak body’s are common these days. Dr’s have the AMA, pharmacists have the Pharmacy guild. Accountants have CPA and CA. So the list goes on.
Point is, they work and with enough members can become quite influential. I will be signing up.

I reckon 8 or 900 ...hard to say really...it was held on the old Bowls club at the front of pratten on a unused green....a playground next to it higher up with a better vantage point and much more shade had a lot of supporters too

Exactly and if he doesn't agree on what HBG want then he'll just get shafted they have shown us to have an itchy trigger finger, what can he change out of what the fans actually want, I'll tell you SFA.

Ppl were trying to stand out of the direct sun as it was pretty intense. So hard to guage numbers...i would agree with your estimate.
