Cover blown. Fellas...she's onto us! It's the secret Balmain agenda forum to take control of the club. 🤣

You're all paranoid. Seems like projection because bringing back the Magpies is the aim of the morons in charge...

And I can't believe I even need to say this, but when I say morons, I mean the individuals. Not Wests as a whole.

Further, you seem awfully worried about 1 or 2 comments which makes you feel like 200 comments, but been on Facebook lately? the Balmain side gets comments like that too. Most sane fans shrug it off. There's always going to be die hards.

Do you work?

You must have an agenda with all your posts.

Night and day.

Must be really invested

Sorry dude, but YOU are the one that's spinning the narrative as HBG and WESTS MAGPIES are 2 parts of one whole.
You try to turn things around by saying 'it's not the MAGPIES we want gone, it's HBG,>>> b/s.
It's a sneaky tactic of wanting to get rid of the Magpies by using dishonest terminology.

Thank you bzn.. you have just reinforced everything the bulk of us have been thinking..

You are projecting your own insecurities into a conspiracy theory that theres a plot to overthrow the magpies.

You're concerned that the JV becomes the priority and not the Wests magpies (which is the way under HBG).

Not all of us are like the HBG directors. We just want what's best for the club as a joint venture.. not as Wests and not as Balmain.. the sooner you realise the bulk of us aren't dinosaurs with agendas, the sooner you will realise that the intent from all of this is good.

I've said it myself, id prefer Wests McArthur take ownership.. give them 90%.. most of us would probably agree it's the right play... So how is that a secret sneaky agenda? I look forward to your response specifically to this part of my post - because someone with a sneaky agenda trying to spin it, wouldn't then advocate for Wests McArthur, would they?

But thanks for responding.. I suggest you consider taking a few steps back and realise the bulk of us come from a good place, no one is trying to over throw Wests... Just HBG...

No doubt about it...I think that is universally agreed.

I don't think PVL did overlook that. We can be certain of one thing. The destruction of the board was the catalyst for the NRL getting involved.

If it is in fact true that the stadium details were withheld despite there being HBG members on the board, I doubt the NRL or the independent directors would have any leg to stand on. I certainly don't think they'd have a legal case either as was being considered.

So if we follow your theory that something must have happened for HBG to react in the way they did and were absolutely right to do so, the question remains, why not just dig your heels in rather than invite them back via an arm twist from the NRL?

That's a good question.

What if.....go with me on this....HBG understood AFTER removing the board members/PVL intervention that the independents were not directly responsible?

Or, what if there wasn't enough evidence to say they were responsible for setting up deals beyond the HBG view.

As a hypothetical - Richo & his good mate O'Farrell put together a 15 year plan for Leichardt off their own back, & have it set up, prior to letting HBG in on it?

Or just as hypothetical, Richo set up the deal with no board intervention.

Less hypothetical- HBG even alluded to this the other day through Leo E.

With these things 'happening', PVL steps in & convinces HBG that O'Farrell & Co will play nice & that Richo need not return etc & then....wait for it....HBG think "well, they were not so bad to deal with outside this issue we had..."

Mate there must have been 100 signs today that said.

Wests Tigers
Not Balmain
Not Wests

Can't get any clearer than that. And we have people talking about Balmain paraphernalia, the sign states our position beautifully.

Wouldn't a well run organisation have worked that out before sacking people and tarnishing their professional reputation?

Do you have a problem with my questions or with my post count? You seem to have gone off topic

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed every last one of these seemingly individual posters with exactly the same talking points seems to duck and evade answering anything directly?

Give us some credit.

What if all that hypothetically happened and HBG didn’t add another board member to make it not independant?

Probably.

I'm not defending them (much to everyone's disbelief). I'm trying to understand them.

The fact the PVL heard both sides & came back with the reintroduction of board members, but in favour of HBG, suggests that while there is fault on HBG for removing the board members, maybe it goes both ways?

Its been a week without answers from any of them.

They must fear HBG losing their share and it passing to an independent owner who doesn't have the interests of the west magpies at heart - but the interest of the Wests tigers.

There in lies the problem - they should be supportive of this... We are a joint venture.. but they only have their self serving interests at heart.. and want control... Mu h like hbg

It's not a fear of losing HBG, it's a matter of HBG holding on to what is rightly theirs and not let it be stolen by someone that has done nothing positive to deserve it.
