He spoke of a particular new board member, is this for HBG (to replace Denny) or has the new wests Tigers board been selected.
He spoke highly of all the great things Richo had achieved and the support he felt the team had achieved in 2025. But skirted around the elephant in the room, the HBG board that undermined those efforts.
I can understand him avoiding discussing the HBG issues, given his position, but he can’t expect supporters and members to just pretend nothing has happened, especially as it appears to always be on rinse and repeat. HBG actions is exactly the reason there are supporters not all rowing in the one direction, something he says he wants to achieve.

Nah. He's just trying to not get his employers offside.
He is in it for the long hall.
Now it's up to the twam to win games.
Well done cochise you certainly didn’t grill Shaun as much as I thought you might.
You interview very respectfully which gains you a lot of respect in return.
I thought Shaun dodged the HBG related questions quite well, but what more can he say without getting offside with either HBG or our fans that are against them.
Shaun doesn’t profess to be a recruitment guru which is great as it allows Benji to choose his own destiny in regards to recruitment and retention.

Im not someone who is just going to ambush someone. Shaun was willing to come on the pod and let me ask those questions so he deserves the respect to be allowed to answer them.
I believe Shuan is a very good operator and will be a very good CEO.

Great to hear a positive voice talk about the club. Richo's focus on a long term stadium strategy and pathways looks to be continuing which k is great news.
21k for LO? Surprising.

A few times he mentioned boards (as in plural) so he is dealing with both the WT board & HBG board atm. He’ll have no hair soon if that continues lol

With a new board expected for Wests Tigers this month , Shaun will be a HBG puppet as the boards will be stacked by HBG they will have control of both and what comes down from HBg will be applied at Wests Tigers untill PVL comes knocking again , the muppets at HBG will try again to control everything ,
Well its interesting his GM of footy and CEO.
Perhaps we should hire Tony Adams if he does a good presentation
