HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[weststigers]

Not for Richo .. he is apparently out the door tomorrow according to his media buddy Read

Yep...Richo is gone. He's ready to go the knuckle with anyone, so if people think he'll roll over and run a club as a puppet CEO, then good luck.

Most CEO's will insist you allow them to make 99% of decisions with some carve outs agreed prior. It's their head on the chopping block so absolute power is usually a prerequisite.

People can’t see the writing on the wall … gunna hope for the best until the bitter end …

Gone is a very permanent word. A lot to play out.

The Richo claim HBG have made against him, however you look at it, is a worry,
But if there is any truth to the claims ,
Why did HBG not dismiss Richo when they first had any evidence of wrong doing,

DOES NOT MAKE A LOT OF SENSE TO ME.

Why have they left the man they claim has been ripping them off still in charge of the club, if someone was ripping you off, and you had evidence of that,
What would you do.

I KNOW WHAT I'D DO, PISS THEM OFF STRAIGHT AWAY.

How did Richo rip them off? Just curious where you got this narrative from?

Rumours of ex manly ceo tony mestrov taking over as west tigers ceo is this another disaster from HBG only have to look at his efforts at manly
Wests Tigers have one of the best CEO's in the NRL
I was personally looking forward to the 2026 season with a team the i believe would be competitive
The NRL have given assurance that the Wests Tigers name will continue BUT its the infighting that now has to be stopped to get this great club the force it should be

And who would new owners go after?

Hey .. what new owners ?

But board meeting minutes in Australia are generally confidential, treated as sensitive internal records for directors, but they aren't absolutely secret and can become discoverable in court or investigations, especially if they contain legal advice (which might be privileged) or are needed to prove directors met their duties.

Members can't generally access director minutes, but minutes of general member meetings are accessible, so careful handling, strong security, clear protocols for privileged content, and legal advice are crucial to protect sensitive info.

I can't see inside info being released to us fan, ever.

100% just suggesting if they did there wouldn't be any more guessing

The allegations come hot on the heels of bombshell developments at the club that have left angry fans planning a protest march.

No of course not … my expectations though of what will be achieved may be different to yours

It's just how these things work. Maybe he goes and gets reinstated. That's the only outcome I can see where he is WT CEO again, but expect a vacant CEO position next week in the meantime.

Yeah ..I saw it ..they specifically say they aren’t being investigated and only they are being “monitored “ …. Which would always be the case right ?

So nothing out of the usual is happening ?

 

[weststigers]

By reading WTF and podcasts.

Nowhere did anyone say Richo stole money from the club.

A whistle-blower (ex-staff, disgruntled) has allegedly accused him of paying large sums to his sons social media agency and employing 2 family members.

The problem with this story is that Richo declared all this when he was employed as CEO. it's a beat up. Some mud has been thrown, so don't be the mud that sticks....don't perpetuate.

If the directors were sacked for no valid reason they will be all over them, hence monitoring until they get a reason to act, they won't do nothing if HBG F up.
