HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[area52]

I’ve always liked Chamnas.
Many fans don’t like his brutal blunt honesty, but he is the most impartial of all the current rugby league journos in my opinion.
His comments today were the most impartial of the past week.

I have no idea why you think his opinion is impartial.

He proceeded to give us his one sided unaccountable opinion for 40 minutes which only proved he was speaking about matters above his pay and intelligence grade. Embarrassing really.

 

[area52]

I understand that but what did he think putting a time limit on a decision from PVL was going to achieve ?
PVL was never going to bow down to his timeframe demands and like always will do things at his own pace when he is ready.
Richo knows via emails and messages that he has the unwavering support from a huge amount of Wests Tigers supporters, surely he could have waited a few more weeks for them if for nobody else.

Give himself a big payout.

Some play chess others pay checkers

I struggle to understand what the NRL can do legally. It’s an ownership issue. Not an NRL licence issue.

The only regulator I can see maybe having influence is Liquor and Gaming.

Why is it not a license issue?

Not sure if this has been posted but just saw it on MSN. Apologies if already posted.

You have done nothing but instigate & divide people

The real world, full of diverse opinions, can be scary when peering out of the echo chamber.

I haven’t instigated anything, and if people are divided - that’s the way the cards fall 🤷‍♂️

Unless the coaching staff decide they want out, I don't think anything changes for next season at all.

By which time, a new CEO, board & front office will be in place & have an opportunity to put things in place.

Decisions from Bula & Luai MIGHT be impacted, for future seasons. But they were already under some scrutiny anyway.

For some strange reason, I can't imagine any of our coaching staff having many opportunities outside the club. Hodgson has a rep in Britain, Chris H has played for Cronulla but they have a stack of forwards looking for post nrl work.

Can't see the coaches quitting. only Marshall will have to deal with Dennis.

Marshall will not only be a WTs' great on the field, but a great off it as well if he can hold the players and recruitment together. PVL has said he wants Marshall/the playing group quarantined from the ructions off field. Hopefully PVL will be informed firsthand by the four ex directors about what has happened within the Boardroom.

It’s probably how HPG think.

My understanding is that the ARL /NRL own the brand “Wests Tigers” which must give them some rightful intervention powers, like they showed in 2014 by appointing a couple of board members.
When PVL has sufficiently researched this latest imbroglio I believe he could appoint administrators, in the belief that HBG debenture holders will never let any of us cruise into the Christmas spirit of peace and good will to all.

Balmain could have let Wests die and didn't. Now you hold the power you're lauding it over everyone. Grub

Balmain didn’t save Wests back in 1999, they lost their nerve and grabbed the cash (unlike Souths who showed plenty of backbone).

Do you seriously think the Balmain bosses back in 99 said to themselves - yeah we’ve had 80+ years, it’s been a good run - but let’s toss all that away and save our former neighbours Wests 🤣🤣🤣

As for lauding power - financing the Balmain juniors, adding a Balmain legend - Keith Barnes into the name of the organisation etc ... is hardly running roughshod over Balmain.

What I have found, if it’s 6 or 7 posters on 1, usually the abuse comes from the 6 or 7. I get that emotions run high, and people get triggered, but it’s very easy to disprove someone’s point without the name calling.

Its interesting you say that, because I've asked alot of direct questions of those who appear to be defending HBG and have not once had direct answers.. instead am met with the same recycled narrative time and time again and they are not answering any questions in the process..

Sometimes, people are just idiots.. I can be one too. You can be. We all can be... And sometimes need to be told.. it keeps us in check.

I’ve always liked Chamnas.

Chammas made a statement that everyone at the football club is unhappy with Richo.... Or along those lines.. So why are all reports and sources I know close to the club contradicting this? Since when has chammas ever been close to people at our football club, especially the new regime?

Teams are supposed to be united, and if you dont share the same vision, thats usually when people leave (i.e. galvin).

Thats the frustration from people on here. We need to be united towards winning under one banner, and for the most part, are.

HBG debenture holders are a very clear issue with that shared vision and everyone should be united to ensure we fix those issues with either democratic, accountable structures or removing them somehow.

If you're an apologist or defending them, then thats the issue where people feel like youre not part of the team.

If he’s no good , and he’s bringing the toxicity he needs to go as well . Anybody who wants to talk about both Voldemorts , or can’t rise above sticking the boot in to stir shit needs to go . One Wests Tigers moving forward.

If the words “I love the wests tigers but my first love is the magpies/ Balmain “ enter your brain or usher out your mouth , go find yourself a garden to tend , and enter your twilight in dignity . Because you don’t love the wests tigers , you’re like a dude on his second wife pining for his first . You’re only with her because there’s no alternative .

You’re only with wests tigers because there’s no alternative .

So @Bus2terrigal , @BZN , @Vicious , @diedpretty , or whatever dinosaur wants to come creeping out the shadows , just piss off and be one of those old dudes at the pub lamenting the good old days ; where the magpies got the last 2 spoons and almost went into receivership every year for 20 years . “The good old days”.

Or(tbh I haven’t seen any pro Balmain shills on here for years) if there is any pro Balmain shills , you can lament the glory years , where the tigers lost 2 grand finals , all the players retired ,


Ahhh the glory years ….

Why don't you piss off you hypocritical loser.
