I don’t think it’s too much of a reach to say that Liquor and Gaming will probably scrutinise the debenture system given the personal relationships many of the debenture holders have with each other. I knew it was a bs system but I didn’t realise just how bad and blatant the problem was...

Thank you for the insight. Lee sounds like he is exactly the same in real life to how he portrays himself in the media - egotistical, arrogant and completely devoid of self-awareness. That doesn’t surprise me one bit re Dennis. I could never understand how having a flash in the pan music...

That would have been infuriating. Just out of curiosity what was it like being a sponsor and dealing with the board and Pascoe? To say I wasn’t a fan of them is probably an understatement 😆.

Jesus Christ…..nepotism at its finest.

I think the NRL contributes around $13 million to each club. I’m not sure what HBG chip in to operations. There’s a common view in the NRL that given the NRL grants, it’s pretty easy for clubs to at least break even every year. Which is why it was so alarming in Pascoe’s last year we managed...

You’ve got the mind of a six year old.

He stepped down after the unanimous vote in favour of implementing the review recommendations like every other board member.

My issue is that he’s asking the question constantly and it has been answered constantly. From my interpretation the outcome is to ensure the review is implemented in full, and the Wests Tigers board is made up of independents (mostly) and structured in line with the recommendations from the...

@diedpretty the fact that you signed the petition but are still coming into this thread and arguing with everyone when we’re all on the same side is nothing short of moronic and disgusting.

You defintiely woke up on the wrong side of the bed today didn’t you.

Is that a threat 😂?

😂. Right I’m definitely trolling you buddy. If you signed it why create discord? We need every Wests Tigers fan on-board to push this through but you stand on the periphery taking potshots. Your questions have been answered ad-nauseam. If you agree with the petition why do you continue to...

I should have mentioned it’s ok to be critical but if you are always try to offer a solution or alternate option.

Sometimes. I remember during the last petition everyone was outraged at the lack of success, but didn’t sign on because they thought it would achieve nothing. There was a lot of mudslinging and a lot of criticism but no one had any other pathway or solution to change the governance structure...

There’s a difference between thinking critically and not being solutions focused. Some people are just oppositional because it deflects away from their own inadequacies and weaknesses. Not saying any of this above applies to you but more an observation from my professional experience and in...

Never ceases to amaze how so many people can be critical but never actually offer up alternative options or solutions. Some people are just narrow minded and negative to a fault.

People said the same thing about the last petition. It won’t enact change, it won’t result in anything etc but then it was successful. Do you have any alternate suggestions or are you just here to throw stones?

Didn’t sit with the other directors at a game, told Burgess he was in the wrong corporate box (he was), and one called another Directors wife darl (apparently). 8 year ban for that.

I should have worded this better but what I meant when I said small number of eligible members is that 5 out of 7 board members are chosen from the debenture holders. The debenture holders are made up of 20 people. My understanding is that two have passed and one is inactive due to severe...

That’s not what the debenture system is. The debenture system is a means of consolidating and maintaining power and influence. It is an oligarchy and doesn’t allow for democratic processes to be implemented or progressed. It’s really a system that creates an echo chamber and accelerates group...
