    HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

    I'm surprised you go to such lengths to defend HBG or at least play Devil's Advocate. Given all the HBG nonsense over the years and similar lack of WT success, I'm surprised there's anyone willing to go into bat for HBG after the past week. I wonder what your attachment to HBG is.

    Literally no other footy news so it's a feeding frenzy.

    That Denny is (allegedly) a digusting sleaze

    I know, from the guy who has spent 40 pages defending "things that haven't been proven" about the HBG moves.

    HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

    Sorry but you arent paying attention. There's a lot of chat about whether or not the Magpies would be returned. Nobody really thinks it would happen, but its not reasonable to say nobody is talking about returning the Maggies when (a) it's been in the media for 2 years including from former...

    HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

    I'm wonderint if he'll hold his shots until it plays out. There's every chance that HBGs move is not the end of proceedings, and if he's quit the post, there's probably no coming back. Also I have a suspicion that even HBG are super keen to keep Richo in his position - his appointment was a...

    Don't think he ever stopped and they aren't free handouts, he'd pony up a cheque every time Pascoe made a visit. Uncle Harry was good for a few hundred thousand annually I'm told. Pascoe just had to schmooze him every now and then. I'm sure Richo does exactly the same.

    When I spoke to the WA CFO a few years ago he said it was a million per year. But also don't forget that WA's Charter states they must use their profits for funding rugby league and other community initiatives. That's literally the whole purpose of a Leagues Club (it's in the name),so you don't...

    The "whys" of it are irrelevant. The main issue for most fans is they liked the direction the club was heading under the independent directors plus Richo, and that direction was the response to an independent audit that recommended structural changes. HBG have walked all that progress back. We...

    Balmain ,and Cambo join Easts Tigers , Would you support that new club ?

    It's not what I want ideally, however my main aim at this time is for HBG to step away from Wests Tigers to the fullest extent possible. If that solution involved changing Wests Tigers ownership structure, I'd be fine. I'd rather HBG do it voluntarily, but either way I want them gone. We...

    Yeah sack Burgess. Your guy is obviously not doing his job. How can there possibly be a lack of communication when you have representatives on the Board, I don't get how anyone could say something so dumb. It would be like me complaining about the lack of information from my kids' school...

    Honestly I think it's really an NRL thing now not a L&G. L&G can only intervene on how HBG run their own clubs, not the NRL licence. Time for NRL to come in and say "if you don't have the independents the licence goes up for sale". NRL mandated independents when they bailed out Balmain a decade...

    I'd rather do without the hearsay though. Maybe Richo doesn't leave, but I prefer the decisions where his ongoing participation is not under question and the rug is not pulled out from under his feet. It's all well and good for HBG to say they still support Benji and Richo, but the people...

    I don't think the NRL would allow them, but I also agree, the club would haemorrhage supporters if they attempted to take over the licence as Wests Magpies. Put it another way - how many Bears fans stayed with after Manly took over the licence? Manly were already a moderately powerful club at...

    It's not that people really think Wests Ashfield are going to cut out Balmain and return the Magpies to the NRL. It's that these WA owner keep undermining forward progress with their own internal nonsense, some of which includes objections to jerseys or public comments about the return of the...
