Let’s hope he invests more in the recruitment, development & pathways side of things

Got the kids and watched the first one last night - at moments the kids were saying the words to each line. Die Hard and Home Alone standard Chrissy time movies.

HBG showed their hand, they are all in now with the board named & have more than just external power on the Wests Tigers decisions. If we get success they will deserve credit but if we don’t then fully expect heads to roll at the top especially as the majority decision makers. Shows the true...

I’m the same as you & it shouldn’t make one ounce of difference but because of our history it does unfortunately to a fair few people which is growing. The easiest way to solve this all would be if we just stopped being an easy target which would mean some significant changes at the top and...

I think the main reason why anyone mentions a single identity through grades is they’ve just had enough of every year talking about division.

There are alot better judges which all see Benji having a very big future in coaching & players believe in him. Wouldn’t surprise me if Bula extension aligns to Benji’s length as well.

His previous role wasn’t impacted. He was the obvious choice as interim given what he has been involved with over the last 12mths.

Shaun will be different but in a good way, he does know how to get success that’s for sure, he does get people onboard to his plan and is also a people/fan person. He also has experience in turmoil situations which is also a big plus - he does remain calm which is key. Richo was a very...

Zero chance he removes them.

We will see. I have alot of doubts. Let’s see what happens at the board meeting on Monday and decisions over the next few months re how they react and various appointments they make formally.

That’s the thing some people are missing. It is that simple. A board only focused on the Wests Tigers interests not HBG interests. That’s unity.

I think Richo leaving and Shaun taking over isn’t a bad thing. Benji extension and how Shaun got the interim role & we don’t have an independent board is the problem. That’s the issue alot of people have is how and where we ended up. HBG posted upfront they made the decision because they...

HBG are the only ones with power & aren’t happy when they lose it. The others you mentioned want the club to have an independent board not a board controlled by HBG - they don’t want power within the club.

Would be surprised if they did. If the whole squad attended what could HBG actually do? Not alot.

It’s a clear PR stunt but what doesn’t get focus is the independents don’t have power anymore HBG will appoint more people to ensure they have power. This is what all this is about - HBG lost power make day to day decisions and didn’t like it, their actions are very clear. We have gone back to...

No point having an independent board when the majority of the board are directly affiliated with HBG. The board isn’t independent then. PVL / HBG provided a perception activity today that doesn’t achieve anything. It also highlights HBG BS with their media spin they tried to do. What a total...

I have zero doubt that this is being pushed by the ones who created this mess in the 1st place. They love division and have a long history of ensuring it happens. Just look at the last week and the fact Patton has changed his comments. This is about Wests Tigers fans having enough, being...

HBG made the move to oust him, Richo didn’t make the move to leave. Once they made the move him staying was unattainable under the structure HBG wants. HBG clearly want a yes man to run the club which Richo isn’t.

The way HBG handle things all players that did attend would be punted the next day.

They punted the independents knowing Richo was gone - that was a condition of him choosing to stay in the job from the outset. Only way he stays if HBG reinstated and agreed to not get involved moving forward - which we know won’t happen.
