HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[Vicious]

Either that or he knows hes in big trouble with the integrity unit and bailed when he could, I wish he stayed on though

He should have stayed for at least a couple of weeks longer to see if any positive news eventuates.
He knew how much he meant to the the majority of Wests Togers fans.
I understand his rejlationship with HBG had become untenable, but he didn’t have to communicate with anyone from HBG, just hang around a bit longer honour the support he received from many WT fans and who knows what will eventuate over the next couple of weeks.

Yea, the whole thing makes me think there was some ulterior motive behind it. Obviously the situation was untennable but it wouldve been smart for him tl stay on to steady the ship in some way, especially with PVL in the background

That’s how I see it, many disagree.

I honestly believe richo did it to try and force something from the nrl, in a way an ultimatum

So he might make a Jesus like return if PVL delivers an outcome he’s happy with ?
I reckon that could be in the cards.
More come backs than Cold Chisel.

I wish but he sounded quite content to leave it with the mariners guy who he seems to trust.

It's not like him to give up he's usually a dog with a bone, could be trying to instigate change.

 

[BZN]

Has any other CEO been handcuffed from making decisions?

HBG are not a new entity to the club. Everyone was quite happy putting pitchforks into Lee & Pascoe- they made decisions under HBG leadership too.

I understand the frustration people are facing. But the reality is- not a whole lot changes. We are whipping ourselves into a frenzy about perceptions.

thank goodness someone at last is telling it like it is...perceptions.
And all these people spewing hate are being led by the nose by a hateful pied piper.

He did publically state he wants people that are in for the crocodile roll.
Actions speak louder than words.
That’s why I suspect a comeback is not out of the question if PVL intervenes with a verdict he’s happy with.
My guess is PVL will insist on a return of the Wests Tigers board featuring 4 independent board members.
If that eventuates it won’t be enough to please Richo, it won’t be enough to please many of our fans, but it would be better than nothing.

If they've done nothing wrong I'd expect the originals to be reinstated, that would be the best Christmas present.

 

[BZN]

Except that historically HBG have been part of the club & players, managers & administrators have continually signed with the club.

In 24 hours you've had one thumbs up.......unbelievable.
You're a breath of fresh TC.

 

[BZN]

Based on what? Who has actually said the existence of the club is under threat, other than a few people on here?

Thank goodness sanity has entered the room.
Honestly, people from other clubs must be looking at all this, and thinking we're a bunch of low-class dead beats.

Who would that be?

 

[BZN]

I don’t agree with much you say mate so let’s agree to disagree.

Lots of posters gave @Vicious a hard time yesterday because he was posting common sense but not what the masses wanted to hear.
Now you're saying you don't agree with much of what The Chad says when
he's speaking common sense.
When are all you dudes talkin 💩 gonna come down off your ego trips.

Chad and I had some friendly banter. As did Vicious and I.

Mind your business.

Don't you mean THC?

My hope is that the majority of us that are still here and haven’t jumped off the bus can be amicable and acknowledge we don’t all have to have exactly the same opinion.
Correct me if I’m wrong @BZN but, I don’t think you are happy with the current clique within the HBG either ? If I’m reading your point of view correctly you would be similar to myself in simply wanting an opportunity for change to be made and have the current clique within the HBG overthrown and an opportunity for the independent WT board to be reinstated or reformed before you agree that the only option left is HBG out ?
Like myself I believe you mainly want some part of the Wests Magpies memory to live on and are happy if that is simply via our NSW Cup team as it currently stands ?
As most of the good people on here tonight have acknowledged, that should be no skin off anyones nose as most supporters don’t care about NSW Cup anyway and as long as our feeder team is doing its job and feeding decent players through to our NRL team, who really cares what our feeder team is called.

 

[BZN]

Your probably correct...most league fans arent interested in BS club politics...they just wanna cheer for their team

Wow!!! @The Chad messages are starting to take effect.... already.

 

[liltiger]

Big night with big possibilities

Imagine if in the end our board members and chair are reinstated, Richo returns as an N.R.L administrator and the board members sue HBG, Paton gets the boot for the video they took down, Burgess gets booted out of both board rooms and Asic open an investigation into the dealings of the HBG directors. That would be a world class stuff up for nothing.

 

[BZN]

I base it on evidence mate 15 years without finals for a start.

A review that the HBG commissioned that found serious governance issues at the club and recommended the board be restructured and an experienced CEO to be appointed.

Under those changes we saw the first upward trends at the club in at least 5 years, On measurable indicators.

This progress has been thrown out by the group that the review recommended separation from.

You want to play these games then you better have evidence because I do.

Wow.......Them ol words of yours sure sound like fightin words.
You don't appreciate being challenged by someone with a superior intellect do you.
Oh, and by the way dude.......you certainly aint the breath of fresh air WTs needs, and a few of your dinosaur mates have smelly breath as well.
