HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

This is what I do not, cannot, understand. If they are still suffering such pain and anguish from the merger even with everyone saying the Wests part of Wests Magpies for the last 26 years (which is ok, but not the tigers part of Balmain Tigers 🤔), why are they are happy to put another generation of supporters through the same? I don't get it. As a kid, I had a pretty rough/violent upbringing. I did not subject my kids to the same. I did not want them to feel that pain and trauma, so I just can't understand why there is a group of supporters who would want that.
Suzie i am so sorry to find this out and I know from personal experience it is hard to deal with. From the sounds of it you have raised some wonderful kids. We know from personal experiences that there are some people out there who only deal with their own issues and stuff the rest.

Going through this makes us who we are. That's why we will fight this not only for us but for the generations that come after us.

This is not only a football game it's our way of life. I ll be stuffed if I let anyone take that away because of self Interest.

They don't deserve this once great club made from 2 great clubs.

Its our legacy not theirs.

I.ll fight them forever if I have too

You would of thought when they received the disappointment from PVL that their precious magpies are never coming back to 1st grade they would of said F this we might as well sell but no we couldn't be that lucky.
In their delusional world they believe no one can tell them what to do. They believe they are high and mighty and will overcome.

Then little David came and knocked over the giant ! They are in for a suprise in the form of supporters rallying agianst them
 
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 will come to their conclusions. Especially when HBG have acted with dishonesty and backstabbing quite a few times. Even if they said something, I doubt you could trust it.

There in lies the problem. I think if HBG started doing the right thing with the independant board and re-implementing the report, the fans will start to regain some trust that they have the members and club as the priority, not an agenda.
Well said Hammer. It's a plain as the nose in my face. Entwine can see what's happening
 
That is based on comments from a couple of years ago, are we going to continue living in the past or move forward with the current way of thinking which is nothing other than Wests Tigers.
There in Latus the problem when you have a West based board West Tigers will never flourish

Yeah, they think we are going to forgive and forget, some are even trying to smooth it over.
We need 1000's when we find out what Wests Tigers Unite's strategies are to sign up, HBG will never pull their head in.

They need to know we are going nowhere. We need 1000s your right . I believe we can do it. I believe we can send a united message so loud we can change their course or force the sale.

In all seriousness, how do fans, players , coaching staff etc get excited when the one year we finally showed improvement they blew up the place at years end and made us the laughing stock of the NRL once again. With this mob in charge our future seems like its going to be one of uncertainty, drama and survival. We have become a reality show of Days of our Lives ,one fkn drama after another. ..... Regarding the new CEO, it doesnt matter if hes a good operator or not, hes got a list with strict instructions clearly stating on how to be CEO of Team controlled by HBG. It is why they would never of got any other applicant with a lot of experience in the NRL to apply or show any interest and why Richo had to walk.
 
100 percent agree.

I still am undecided if I can support the club if HBG are still in control season 26.
I will not renew my membership and I will not be driving from the inner west out to Cambo. I will not be watching away games from HBG HQ at Ashfield. My little protest, but sadly I don’t think the fools know what damage they have done. I would be very surprised if Benji can get them above bottom three after the recent events. Getting a team out of the cellar is a really hard gig, but having a bunch of crack pots running the joint makes it possible

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.

allegedly more memberships for Leichhardt oval than campbletown
hbg will be in for a shock if they ditch leichardt or change to magpies and expect a following in inner west.
 
Well that’s because we all know you don’t give a damn about WT it’s only the Magpies you care about. Your heart isn’t with WT at all.
There is no Wests Magpies to follow as a second team. There is but for some crazy stupid reason its the name of our reserve grade team. Thats the problem with that argument the same old Balmain/Wests bullsht. Seriously after all these years of having a Wests Tigers team rubbish like this keeps coming up. Wait til schoolies time again next year HBG will have another grenade espiecially if Benji doesnt have a succeesful year, I think with this lot, hes celebrating his extension way to early.Im sure things will really get interesting and considering the path this lot hand you . next years HBG schoolies will be even bigger
