HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[cktiger]

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.

If your source is on the board and he’s told you what happened in a board meeting then he should get the boot immediately.
You are not allowed to do that if you are a director and I’ve seen board presidents booted for having loose lips.

The NRL findings might agree with you and take appropriate action.

Good. If not bad.

So you think HBG had nothing to do with any NRL decisions over the past 12 months and every decision was made by the Independent Board without them being involved even though they had 2 representatives on the Independent Board ?
Further tj that is it your belief HBG deliberately want Wests Tigers to fail and if so, what is your theory as to why that would be the case ?
Do you honestly think there is even a 1% chance the NRL club could be rebranded as Westsrn Suburbs Magpies ?

Mate it doesn't matter what we think it's what the HBG head honchos think and there is more than enough to suggest that they and their Magpie fanatics want the Magpies reinstated in the competition and whether they are successful or not - the damage that it is doing now is detrimental to this club moving forward as WTs

Turning on Richardson is single handly the dumbest dimwitted move that they have ever made and they are receiving support from no one over this, apart from the old rusted ons that prioritise the Magpies over anything associated with WTs.

genuinely what if the nrl does nothing? and we are under the complete control of the same owners who oversaw 15 years of failure. you’re pinning your opinions on what the nrl does when there’s a chance they don’t do squat.

It’s called dissembling , invoking a straw man argument , it’s often a common tactic in the use of rhetoric and propaganda.. a way of making an argument about something else in order to to distract and confuse

 

[Vicious]

Oh dear, little Vicious. You’re really struggling with that old intelligence thing aren’t you?

So you think it’s a mere coincidence our most successful year in over a decade came after the appointment of the independent board and Shane Richardson, which was the recommendation of an external independent review? After over a decade of failure under the HBG appointees?

Please tell me you’re not that thick 😢

In case you forgot, Richo didn’t want Taylan May and had to be virtually forced to sign him.
Luai signed because of Be ji, not because of Richo.
Yes Richo has earned plenty of respect over the years, but he’s now an old man, has stated himself he won’t be around for more than a couple of years due to his age and he is not the only CEO who can get the job done.
The HBG spokesperson publically backed Richo, but now it’s rumoured to be certain they have the ones who have referred him to NRL investigation.
If he has done nothing wrong the NRL investigation will confirm it.
If the Independent Board has done nothing wrong the NRL will confirm it.
If HBG have caused all this latest commotion for no good reason the NRL will confirm it.
Once again you are making but you have all the answers when you know nothing.

It has not been proven they have turned on Richo.
Yes I agree it’s probably more than 50% likely, but their spokesperson has publically backed him, so it’s not factual to say they have turned on him,
What I don’t understand is so many people saying they will still back him or BOF if they are proven guilty of unethical conduct,
If the NRL clears them of any wrongdoing doing, then there is reason for this unwaivered support.

Aww the cope is strong in this one. Funny how you’ve coincidentally completely backed the HBG narrative yet again. You’re so open-minded though 🙄

You’re still avoiding the questions but I understand the time for your afternoon nap is fast approaching. Maybe you’ll finally answer our questions before your dinner at 5pm 😊

 

[TigerNeddyK]

omg it’s because of the independent board !!!!!! the one year we had them was the one year we had improved results. you can’t be serious

Jesus … the desperation is palpable.. FFS V just cannot stop desperately trying to timidly defend the honor of HBG and it’s fearless leader Deviate Denny

 

[Demps]

Huh ? I don’t remember that…and I was here every day when that was going on ,,,.Who forced Richo to sign him ? I don’t think that would be possible if he wasn’t onboard

The circumstances around May’s release from the Roosters were odd… just a few months after he signed an extension…. Richo probably had to do some due diligence to make sure there was nothing untoward with that…

Taylan [sacked - Penrith]
Not Terrell [roosters]


If true.

 

[Vicious]

Taylan, not Terrell.

 

[Tom Shines]

Taylan, not Terrell.

Ok … yes he seemed a bit reluctant there …Maybe with good reason …ultimately Taylan’s form got him a deal..,

 

[You Know Who]

🤣🤣🤣 hey dumby, you and your little HBG buddies were arguing that the independent WT board were making decisions without communicating with the HBG board.

Which one is it because you’re completely contradicting yourself lol

You planning on avoiding this like the plague, aren’t you, little @Vicious 🤣

 

[Vicious]

The initial signing, not the re-signing after he had proven his value.

Well,,, he got it right in the end …that’s all that matters to me

What would Chammas do for a living though?

 

[You Know Who]

That’s the best he’s got on Richo; being hesitant to sign a guy who hadn’t played in over a year and was coming off domestic abuse accusations.

Vicious is really struggling right now lol

I know that we have not made the finals for 15 years .. almost impossible mathematically without woeful incompetence at some level of management.. I know our pathways are a mess with our juniors and minor grade teams all wearing different jerseys .. I know that they were running at a loss till this year and that a review found that an k dependent leagues club board was needed to turn the fortunes around and I also know that HBG agreed to that until it seemed to actually start to work and then they sacked the independent board without cause ( unless they really didn’t like the orange in the gotdamn jersey) … what I do know is that they are terrible at running a footy team and that they have to go !
