HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

Joel Helmes said:
To me, Wests Tigers and the loyal fanbase crossed the rubicon this week and the club will never be the same. When we launched the initial petition we were met with a bunch of negative responses and pessimistic reactions. The second petition less so. These latest dramas, I think, have unified us the fans like never before. There’s no going back now imo.

If we can, as a club, pull through this, our fanbase will be like never before! Everyone will feel as one!

@Joel Helmes please message Richo if any of you guys in the Ambush or Fan Rep Group have his mobile and reinforce how much support he has behind him. I'm sure you have already if you do have direct contact.

If Richo can get us through this, he will be a 'messiah' or given the timing 'Father Christmas'. He will be celebrated like George Piggins!

Richos gone mate. For a bloke that managed 1300 people and was a high powered business guy, you sure are naive about the machinations of the boardroom.

If they parachute in this Lubinskas fool, then we are well and truly fked. It'll just get worse from there.

This is not going to get better...this is the best it's going to be for a long time. Enjoy today, for each new day, we move further toward rock bottom again.

Don’t be a douche bag. The reason I was moderately successful in my game was because I didn’t go off half-cocked and jump at every shadow in sight. I weighed evidence and made evidence-based decisions, I was kept in that job for 8 years until I left if my own volition.
So spare me your platitudes about naivety, you wouldn’t know if someone was up you with a red hot poker.
Speaking of which, with your penchant to go off in half a second, how did you ever keep the ladies or the boys interested in the bedroom?

And there it is. You’re really just another bitter old geriatric Magpie fan with a huge chip on his shoulder, blaming everyone and everything else for the fact that your dead club is widely regarded as a joke.

The day can’t come soon enough for the Wests Tigers becoming their own entity and the Magpies franchise, along with their colostomy-carrying bingo loving fans like you, are nothing more than a bad memory.

Ah that explains it...always an employee.

You're a bit sensitive and eager to prove your previous "success". I'll let you do that to whoever will listen. Let's refer to them as the good ol' days.

I'll be over here keeping some ladies interested if you ever decide you want to stop being so sensitive. It's not very attractive to the ladies btw.

Purely hypothetical question, Steve. Would you be happy if Laundy bought HBG out and restored Balmain Tigers to primacy and relegated the Magpies to also rans or even non-events?
As I said purely hypothetical and not looking to start WW3.

It was you not me who decided to put shade on someone’s career. I happen to be very proud of my success and achievements. I wouldn’t dream of doing that to you or anyone else.
I wasn’t trying to prove my success and you don’t know the half of it anyway. I was merely trying to illustrate a point by making those comments, not trying to self-aggrandise.
Not only did you try and put my career down you did it by showing just how inappropriate you would have been for a senior management role. That’s pretty stupid.
By the way how long have you referred to your fingers as the ladies. Bye wank.r, you are blocked.

It sounds like it will be very Balmain orientated if Laundy buys the club.
Not ideal for me, not ideal for a lot of people, but I reckon HBG will sell for 50 million and at the end of the day HBG knew it wasn’t going to go down well dismissing 4 independent board members some very close to the CEO, so if they sell and the Wests Tigers become very Balmain favoured, it is what it is.
Being smart business men I think they would still want strong ties with the MacArthur region so that won’t change.

Here we go....

Because he has a fondness in his heart for Balmain it's going to be Balmain centric? Spare me.

You're fine with HBG ownership (Wests) who literally just have to turn up to make money; there income is basically poker machines. A 2 year old turns a profit running the same business...

But you're not fine with a billion dollar business man whos reputation is nothing but success, because he's 84 and has a fondness in his heart for a piece of history?

I'm in an episode of weststigersforum360... One of you make stuff up to write the sob story, then you feed of each other.. it becomes its own news cycle...

That says a lot. The bloke who self-elected to run the club can't bring himself to wear a WT jersey?
 
If anyone is interested, I have just emailed a similar email to this. Will advise if I get a response


Membership Department
Wests Tigers Rugby League Football Club

Subject: Request for Refund of Membership Due to Failure to Deliver Agreed Services

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to formally request a refund of my Wests Tigers membership for the current season. This request is made due to the ongoing situation with the club’s board, which has resulted in a significant failure to provide the standard of service, governance, and representation that I, as a paying member, reasonably expected and signed up for.

When I purchased my membership, it was on the understanding that the club would operate under a stable, competent, and properly functioning board, providing transparency, accountability, and leadership consistent with what was promoted to members. Recent events and the current instability at board level clearly demonstrate that these obligations have not been met.

Under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL), consumers are entitled to services that are provided:

  • with due care and skill,
  • fit for the purpose for which they were purchased, and
  • delivered as agreed.
At present, the governance of the Wests Tigers does not meet these standards. The issues surrounding the board have directly affected the club’s ability to deliver the service that forms part of the membership value — namely, stable administration, proper governance, and the level of organisational integrity that members are promised and rely upon when deciding to purchase a membership.

Given that the club is not currently providing the service as advertised or reasonably expected, this represents a failure to meet consumer guarantees under the ACL, entitling me to a remedy. In this case, I am requesting a full refund of my membership due to the service not being delivered in the agreed manner.

I ask that my refund be processed within a reasonable timeframe. Please confirm receipt of this request and outline the next steps required from my end.

Thank you for your attention. I look forward to your prompt response.

Kind regards,

It’s funny, because what you’re describing is how a lot of Western Suburbs fans (not all) have felt for the past 26 years.
I think if the perception of the merger had been more even handed (the media have been the worst offenders there), then none of this current stuff would ever have happened.

It’s shameful that you think like this , yet want to yell from all around that you’re hard done by , because you’re expressing your opinion … I’ve got second hand embarrassment reading your posts . You have zero critical sled awareness….

Given what we are going through atm, it’s probably not what you want to hear. We need someone who is fond for Wests Tigers, not its parents.
