If you want to be objective about it, under Pascoe we finished 9th and won 11 games in a season.

If HBG are offering compensation, please tell me where to apply. The thing about footy is that different people have different opinions. At the end of the day, we did just as bad under Richo as we have under previous CEOs.

At the end of the day, under Richo's tenure we copped a wooden spoon and a 13th with the strongest roster we have had in a long time while losing a few of the best juniors we've had in years.

Richo turned out to be more jelly roll than crocodile roll.

Parramatta had a laundry list of breaches of the act from directors on the licensed club board. The chair himself waved a white flag and asked the regulator to step in. HBG standing down directors on the board of a completely different private entity that they own is not the same thing. L&G...

Mate, which specific section of the Registered Clubs Act do you believe the Holman Barnes directors have breached by removing directors from Wests Tigers Pty Ltd?

No worries. Can you point out which section of the Registered Clubs Act you believe Holman Barnes Group is breaching?

Wests Tigers is a private company. It's under the jurisdiction of ASIC, not liquor and gaming.

He's packed and has a removalist booked on Monday. If you play chicken with the 90% owners, don't be surprised when they don't swerve.

Exactly which part of the constitution hasn't been followed or what laws have been broken?

He's absolutely a good and competent CEO. I saw this up close in a past work life. I agree he is not perfect. I saw lots of this too. Best case scenario would be that he stays. If he does walk though, there will be no shortage of people wanting the job.

We're going to have to rename Shane Richardson, Icarus - it sounds like he flew too close to the sun and is about to come crashing to ground and bounce through the exit. Booting his supporters on the board is just the first step. Footy is a weird animal. Maybe the same goes for life? Small...

Broncos are the only ones that really publish clear figures. $81 million revenue and $8.4 million profit.

Someone very senior at another club used to joke with me that "winning is good for business". Richo can bang on as much as he wants about expanded corporate facilities, but until we start winning on the regular, the only businesses we're attracting are those with a kink for self flagellation.

Hard to believe some people are still blaming the coach after all these years. Fair dinkum, even Ivan Cleary couldn't do much with us. We're still at the start of a rebuild of the entire club from the ground up. And Richo's not even a year into undoing years of bad work. Sketchy membership...

I admire your optimism, but there's a big difference between losing by 20-30 points compared to nearly 70. I'm no chicken little either, but I've seen enough footy to know that you don't play like we did on Sunday unless there are issues among the playing group.

The writing has been on the wall for Galvin for a while now. More and more teams have been isolating him in defence. He's easily 10kg under where he needs to be and still looks like he's trying to create something from every play. Richo and Benji need to swallow their pride and send the bloke...

Great to see Naden playing some good footy, I've always had a soft spot for him. The question for me is why he seems to have picked up a gear or two? Is it Benji? Is it having a few ex-Penrith guys around? Is it just that the team's winning? Something away from footy?

I guess if people are planning to boo the young fella for taking more money elsewhere, they will also be booing the blokes who joined our club for more money too?

If I take my Wests blinkers off, I honestly don't blame the kid and his family. There are basically no decent halves on the market currently, if ever there was a time to sell yourself to the highest bidder, it's now. With the Wests blinkers on, I think we'll be fine. He's a loss for sure but...
