HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

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.
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.
 
Who exactly do you think the organisers are??? You're the one resorting to old tropes and misconceptions. 🤦‍♀️
Not me.
I’m talking about perceptions.

Darcy Byrne with cheerleading from the podcasts are who I’m talking about.

This perception may well be just as unfounded as Burgess and his mates trying to get the Magpies back into the NRL.

Both are conspiracy theories, yet it would appear that only some conspiracy theories are seen as kosher on the forum
 
Wests MacArthur would be the ideal replacement..

The bulk of us former Balmain tigers fans understand that this is a WESTS TIGERS MERGER!

Wests macarthur is our future..

TOo many magpies fans here are projecting their own insecurities
Very simple, everyone stop using the words Magpies & Balmain in any post. We are only adding fuel to their strategy of deflection from the real message.

The message is clear ... HBG out!
 
Mate you're wasting your time trying to reason with him is like talking to a chicken you have no chance.
How can he be impartial he reeks of magpie it's written all over his avatar.
That's true Steve, but he can't go unchallenged. He needs to defend his position and the more he is challenged, the more it's clear he can't.

For me it's to expose, not to convince.

I noticed you sparked up again after Cochise mentioned they have Darcy on a podcast today.

Nothing but muddying of the waters ever since he said it.

As I told Suzie you don't even deserve the right to post here.

You may think you are fooling people and are the smartest person is this room but most can see why you are here and what you are trying to achieve.

It's a bit sad. Kind of feel sorry for you.

Darcy Byrne is a muppet that jumps on the dramas of our club to further his political ambitions I have seen him do it numerous times, the guy is all bark no bite. He is there for himself and nothing else.

If someone else was to take 100% control, there's nothing stopping them from building a new framework which includes these clubs.

My preference is to go to a Wests Tigers NSW Cup team.

Of course, the Magpies NSW Cup team is it's own entity anyway, so they would probably remain in NSW cup. We've had 2 WT aligned teams in NSW Cup before. We don't need to throw the baby out with the bath water or punish Wests lower grades. They aren't the problem.

When Darcy Byrne sacks a successful independent board for the WT …we can compare things apples for apples
 
I’d like to read the article first. Can someone post it. I was told that he’d be informing staff that he is leaving unless the NRL step in.
