Like others have cancelled my Kayo account, have emailed both the football club and the licensed club to cancel my memberships. I have also advised the NRL of my membership cancellations. One person’s action will change nothing but people power will and although under their current debenture...

Absolute madness. You have a business that for over a decade is bleeding cash, can’t compete in the market place and is a total basket case . Along comes a proven top notch administrator with a hard edge and starts to turn the joint around, so the board push him out the door because they don’t...

This whole saga can now either destroy the club for another decade or maybe for ever, or something good could rise from the ashes. Very hard to be optimistic and while HBG are making the decisions and the chances of this club having any success is zero. The NRL’s intervention is our only...

At the start of the series I thought the Poms had the squad to win the ashes. I thought the batting lineup was marginally better than our and for once they had some quicks who could do some real damage on Australian tracks. Well got that one wrong, the Pom’s bowling has been all over the shop...

If when all the dust is settled we come up with the he debenture system ditched in favour of a democratic system where the board is elected by members and a board who is focused on the Weststigers and not Wests and Balmain this whole ugly saga might have been worth all the drama of the last...

Buckle down another two day test is coming

Just emailed the club to advise Iam not renewing my membership and could they remove my details from all their data bases. 65 years of Balmain/Weststigers over

A lot of people see private ownership as our road to salvation. History tells me there are far more failures than successes of clubs who went down this path. I think the best result would be a total overhaul of the current system of governance and replaced by a board voted in by financial...

The big question now is, what do the HB do to repair the damage caused by their decision. They have backed themselves into a corner with no obvious escape route. Not in their wildest dreams would they thought there would be such a backlash from every corner. I guess first thing they have to...

BOF was a big bears supporter and jumped to the Tigers when the Bears were chopped

Have we got a time , Iam in walking distance

It is obvious that the HBG were not happy with the internal review and its findings. Also it would appear they reluctantly went along with the recommendations. Only last year Julie Remano ( please excuse the spelling) was trying to pull the rug on the recommendations that were put in place. So...

“If it’s long enough it’s high enough it’s straight between the posts”

It has to be remembered , if the Balmain board had not sent the club to the wall over the leagues club fiasco the events of yesterday would probably not happen. By that I mean our current board would be a fifty fifty split between both clubs with both clubs sharing the financial burden. At...

Iam amazed they are playing a pink ball test in Brisbane. The red ball moves around in Brisbane a lot so the pink ball should be nearly unplayable. Also Brisbane is known for its late afternoon storms that could play havoc with the hours they get on the field. The last thing the ACB is another...

Why would he even think of staying? He needs a board that will push through his reforms not a board that will direct him what reforms to introduce. The HB would be over the moon with his departure because they could put their puppet into the job. Richo is possibly the best thing that has...

As others have said, us forum contributors represent about 0.5 percent of people who go to games, buy merchandise and memberships. The other 99.5% would see another one page spread on the WestsTigers dysfunctional board and not get beyond the headline. They basically would not care. Of course...

Impossible to have success on the field when the boardroom is a shambles and just when you think all the club is aligned and all heading in the same direction the usual culprits derail the cart. Just give the licence to our franchise to a group of people who want success for our club, rather...

The sudden rush of Bula media stories, tells me Moses is trying to create some last minute interest in his client and squeeze some more cash out of Richo. I have no doubt he will commit but it’s cost and length of the contract that might be a concern

When you mention wealth inequality people tend to think of housing and money in the bank but it goes way deeper than that. Education, and health also a major factor. Okay life will never be a level playing field and people with absolute nothing will pull themselves to the top, but the odds are...
