Iv no doubt that whoever purchases it will be mandated by the N.R.L that everything remain Wests Tigers. As it should be. Other thing is technically if privatised and taken from HBG then Wests and Balmain will no longer be a part of the club as they're under the HBG umbrella. If we split I'm assuming we would need to rebuild our reserve grade team juniors and rebramd as the Wests Tigers. We would play against Wests and Balmain. So I can't see how any one could change anything.Very nice scenario that you paint there but my only concern there is that there is too much talk about Balmain with old Arthur, however I would hope that overall such a consortium would be wholly focused on Wests Tigers and just be respectful of the past.
I would expect that a successful entrepreneur like Arthur and those involved in such a consortium would be mostly concerned with the financial and on field success of such a venture and not involve themselves in the type of bickering and power plays that we have seen for over a quarter of a century.
Hard to believe that anything could possibly be as disfunctional as what we currently have in place.
