HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[coivtny]

The NRL would be wise to steer well clear of this mess, take control of the license and administer the club until a new buyer can be found.

I think they’re trying to. They’re hoping it is handled in a way that means they don’t need to come in. Time will tell.

 

[coivtny]

Wow, you should probably put down the bottle and take a break.

F’wit.

 

[hammertime]

No , you don’t know me so how would you know what’s usual or unusual for me. I’ll share as much as I can.
I became privy to inside information from an impeccable source this afternoon. The issue that broke this open had nothing to do with colour of jersey or any other trivia. It’s wholly and solely about Richo and the cosy arrangement he had with BOF for pushing approvals through that needed much more scrutiny.
As I said my source is impeccable but you believe whatever you like. I won’t be saying any more on the matter.

So to "send a message", because they took the new independence a bit further than hdb would like, rather than communicating or providing a warning, they desolved the board, tarnished the reputation of the club (putting us back 5+ years) and jeopardised key signatures of bula and luai.

Good response HDB. Can't believe richo and Barry tried to get things done.

I also fail to see the bad decisions they made.

HBG have been forced to take down the statement and video from their website under threat of legal action from the other 3 independent directors

Meanwhile Brent Read has smashed Dennis Burgess and his 200 only fans accounts he follows on instagram

Are you on the pipe mate?? Seriously an “anonymous’ tip off against Richo in this climate and becuse he hast yet rushed to a microphone to SCREAM his innocence you have him convicted? Huh? You dont even know what of yet but the way you have been carrying on on this forum since monday leads me to believe you are PRAYING 🙏 this smear campaign obviously organised by the mob of imbeciles that go by the acronym HBG works to get rid of the guy doing his absolute best to turn the 15 year shit show around… it makes me sick that these clowns , these backstabbing inept pack of F******S are sabotaging the hell out of the TIGERS and the so called supporters on here are high FIVING them while they do it.. it’s reprehensible as will as beyond absurd

Nobody on this forum is endorsing HBG, except by saying those who represent HBG now are very different to those who represented them a couple of years ago, or even 12months ago.
There appears to be a core rogue group that are the stem of the problem within HBG.just because of HBG’s track record that does not mean everyone else in the Wests Tigers set up is squeaky clean and does not believe HBG’s incompetence is an opportunity to capitalise on.
I have reason to believe there are issues aside from the HBG issues which some don’t want tj believe even though they do not know the answer themselves.
The good thing is everything from HBG down is now being investigated by the NRL, so anyone who has done anything wrong will be found out.
Instead of getting on your high horse, how about waiting to hear the findings from the NRL.

They backed a Pelican who took 5 years to build a gym, for 9 years and 3 spoons.

Richo secures $100 million for stadia in 2 years and they butcher him.

Shame.

NRL are investigating all things from HBG down.
Do we wait for their outcome, or are our own opinions more accurate than what the NRL investigation will find ?

i still can’t believe he somehow secured the campbeltown funding. the council were being so stubborn about it & he got it done at the 11th hour.

He’s a get shit done bloke. Probably broke some rules but this is rugby league. Play on. We were going nowhere playing nice.

I know this guy is right. I've known him for many years and he's honest and truthful. I don't know what "nothing to see here" means in the context you've used it. There's plenty to see and it's ugly and reflects poorly on HBG, Richo and BOF. If you think I'm trying to absolve HBG you could not be more wrong. The only point I'm trying to make is there is much more to this than has been said thus far and a lot of the speculation is off target.

OMG 😂🤣😉. Jesus ,, that will do me …so may ridiculous assertions in a 3 sentence post..your mate that is “always right” took the time to gossip to you over hearsay that is so wrong, so egregious that it is in your words “UGLY” ?? ha ha ha ha even if Richo has somehow collaborated with BOF directly in front of the other indepenedent board members that got the position due to their integrity to pull off some lottery ticket level kickbacks somehow { again in tow with the former premier) ,”UGLY” is hardly a word that would be applicable FFS… amd you on here trying to ‘innocently” spread this smear campaign against one of the most accomplished and respected rugby league administrators in league history .. a man with a long history of success and fighting for his club like a gotdamn Bull,,,, now that is UGLY…. seriously makes me sick ..bloody disgusting, cowardly DROSS

That’s ok
Unfortunately your original post was silent in relation to HBG involvement/failure, so should have been provided, not just nominating Richo and BOF.

You also went on to say “I'm not saying he's done anything illegal but”

In these circumstances I would wait for the facts (irrespective of impeccable sources)

But that’s your choice, I just tend to question impeccable sources and anonymous accusers.

All the best and let’s hope we have a competitive wests tigers to follow in the future.

Just listen to me and you will fine. I can see the future.

Its a forum mate. Its about trying to put the pieces together and form a logical opinion.

I get incredibly frustrated anything trying to justify HDB taking this course of action.

There may have been issues, but unless it was embezzlement, fraud etc., which they have not said is the case, nothing justifies dissolution given our history and current timing of negotiations.

I hope the majority of supporters here are frustrated and angry to. We can't stand for this.

Hard to refute such a well thought out and eloquently authored argument.. Old mate Burgo aid with an assist?

He’s looking for the delete button on Insta
