HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[GNR4LIFE]

Imagine if Luai leaves and that prompts the ARL to take the licence away from HBG.

Could be the greatest possible result imaginable.

I don’t think a player activating a clause in his contract would trigger the NRL to take the licence away from the owners.

Of course its extremely unlikely but it could also be the straw that breaks the camel's back.

I was at the 62 and 63 Grand Finals as a Wests supporter and at the 69 GF as a Tigers supporter and since then.
The Nrl should take away the Licence from Hbg and on sell it to Laundy.

Petition started, not by us, but I'm supporting it. https://c.org/KzT25bjzjP

Done

Nah. You could make a case for Richo, but even that’s unlikely. Definitely won’t be due to a player leaving.

So you got Balmain up but you couldn’t get Wests up. Poor form really.

 

[Trevros]

Up in arms much? I thought the only Balmain person still alive was my old man and he's 86 and even he doesn't really give a [This word has been automatically removed] these days since its not the game it used to be. He calls it skirts at 10 yards.

ANYWAYS

Appreciate all your contributions tigahhh! We need passionate level headed people like you. Ignore those two emotional succubus, they struggle to stay relevant in times like these.

It should certainly be someone who wants WT to be a strong club with good governance unlike the nest of snakes who are destroying the club at the moment

I wouldn’t be worrying over trivial matters such as branding.

But let’s say the conspiracy theory’s are true and we trotted out with a new feathery emblem and minimal orange - you’d still follow yeah ?

After all it’d just be the latest incarnation of our great club.
And Balmain still own 10% 🤷‍♂️

Branding is never Trivial. It’s the most’critical communication tool. Marketing is why you choose the car you drive , the céréal you eat and the team you stick with.
The Joint Venture is a
Case study in what not to do.
Successivé Managements have demonstrated galactic stupidity for two décades. To be arguîng at this stage about how much orange is in a jersey is pathetic and embarrassing. It’s not just old fart die hards who are responsible for this travesty. Everyone who drew a salary under false prétences and failed to exploit the passion and loyalty of the fans and athlètes to serve the Tigers brand is to blame. The Tiger is an apex prédator in the wild. It is predominantly black and gold on top ànd underneath it is white in near équal measure. To all you clueless nincompoops, the Tigers are going nowhere. Deal with it.

appreciate it thank you @Big Red

As the viewpoint of an outsider, I remember saying about a decade ago that the owners don’t care about winning football games.
They enjoy the prestige of owning a club and the traffic that funnels into their hospitality network.
Some of them hold fantasies of a Magpie resurgence but it’s not their primary driver I suspect.
It must still be a positive strategic decision otherwise a smart operator would have sold the joint ages ago.

Just look at Manly and the Penn family. Absolutely mad management.

Yet it works in Manly's favour. Des kept the board away from the players.

Well, she’ll be gone soon apparently.

stop talking about me you’re obsessed

 

[BAGNF05]

My only comment on what you’ve said is HBG didn’t think it through very well. If they say communication was the biggest issue and it’s clear to everyone that there were two directors common to both boards then blind Freddy would ask why sack four directors off the WT board and leave the common directors in place. That just defies logic and commonsense.

This as well as the apparent lack of any warnings before blowing up an already fragile football club publicly. It’s shambolic.

 

[crazycat]

Nah. You could make a case for Richo, but even that’s unlikely. Definitely won’t be due to a player leaving.

Not a single player.

If say Luai + Bula + May's leave, then we would be a bottom 17 team.

NRL would probably be a bit happy. It would mean they either kick us out OR the other teams know they get a punching bag one week. ...
Yet if people stop watching, then were gone....

At the moment this crap generates headlines=churnalism=clicks. If though it damages the Tigers hard enough that we get the spoon again and don't look like recovering. The fans will tune out.

 

[Squater]

Fme. Can you image the Storm, Roosters, Broncos ect have this guy on their board?
No wonder we have been a basket case for the last 15 years

The guy died 15yrs ago. No one has told him yet

 

[BAGNF05]

To cancel a membership you have to send the email to the department at the club that deals with memberships.
Just be respectful/professional, their going to be swamped in emails it's unfortunate and not ideal.
Just remember it's HBG that have put them and the other hard working staff in this position not the fans.

I’d also let the NRL know if they aren’t issuing refunds. It’s perfectly reasonable to expect a refund after what the owners have done this week. We are not getting what we paid for. Luai and Bula unlikely to finish the season is my early tip, which would also probably result in the wooden spoon.
