If you want the Wests Magpies or the Balmain Tigers to return you are a knob.
Breaking news: HBG takeover
- Thread starter BlackWhiteGold
- Start date
Same. Also bought the new jersey and it arrived last week. Really disappointed in HBG right now.
Hop on Facebook and have a squizz
That’s a wise move BZN, best not to reveal the big secret until everything’s in place, people might not like it. Coivtny may think you’re only a small cog but we all know it’s not the size of the cog that counts. Don’t keep us waiting too long BZN, as you say, you could fall off the perch at any time.
It's not even about taking Balmain away. There are many, many of us who are neither WM or BT fans. We are ONLY Wests Tigers fans, and if Wests Tigers cease to be, I have absolutely no interest in following a team that hasn't existed for more than quarter of a century in the NRL, or the one that was my least favourite prior to Super League. My 4 piddly memberships and 2 or 3 merchandise purchases a year won't make much if a difference, but I don't think I'll be the only one.
Lots of people were happy with 2026's jersey, since they sold out in both styles so quickly 🤷♀️

In today’s Daily Telegraph there is an article and explanation of the situation. As the article is the usual chatter there was a section of question with answer of the current situation and I found this very disturbing (I’ll insert a snap shot from the article). This article is confirming my suspicions as stated in my earlier post that self sabotage has been going on for a while and it looks like 2030 is the year for these muppets to ramp up their plan to ditch the Tigers brand. Does anyone know the whole (legal) truth about this “Heritage Deed Prohibition till 2030”?

I’ve been stewing on this scenario to try and make a relevant comment.
Apart from massive disappointment I’m struggling to add anything to what’s already been said.
Wtf is wrong with this club.

We need to complain to the NRL so they are aware of our distaste.

Prompt:
Draft a formal request to the NRL asking them to review the Holman Barnes Group’s licence following their removal of the newly appointed independent Wests Tigers board. Emphasise that the decision appears self interested, conflicts with good governance standards, and does not reflect the best interests of the Wests Tigers, the NRL, its fans, or the long term stability of the club. The tone should be firm, factual, and centred on governance integrity and stakeholder impact.

Is he trying to get his new team the Storm to change their name?

We are hostages to a few self interested people that have power over something that means something to us … it’s frustrating as hell but I don’t think it goes beyond that

Totally agree champ, they are history. The Tigers last won a comp in 1969, and were poo from 91 onwards and the magpies well let's not go there. Both should be wiped out fully, I would even scrap Leichardt and Campbell Town and just build a new stadium and have one home, let the losers who want to live in the past stay there and watch re runs of past floggings.

The club won’t make 2030

If you attack either, you attack the Wests Tigers. You attack Benji, Richo and everything we are trying to do here.
We are a merger of two teams, our colours are Orange Black and White and anyone attacking our Jersey, the Balmain Philips Jersey or the Victa Magpies Jersey is against us and deserves a knuckle sandwich.
Get behind us or get lost.

He said he’d investigate. Didn’t promise he’d actually do anything about it.

I'd love to do that if they really don't want the Wests tigers to succeed. Neither side of the joint venture wanted their club to disappear but what's done is done. I embraced that and to see it all undone because of selfish Cro-Magnons trying to resurrect the past is just wrong. There must be a way for the NRL or members to resolve this and soon before another year is lost.

If you’re angry about this situation and haven’t expressed it to the NRL yet, why not? We need them to hear that we aren’t taking this shit AGAIN.
