HBG, Independent Directors Sacked

[Tucker]

Ok so if O’Farrell is back , who was the poor communication about. And why is Richo gone?

He left.

There are many WT members who are already mergers if Wests Ashfield.

And all you need is like 50 votes and you can get on the board at best an AGM. Nobody ever bothers about those things, it doesn't take much to get over the line if you have backing of a group of people

I am a member, problem is the board is made up of 5 debenture holders and 2 member elected directors....so you are ineffective as the debenture holders will always outnumber you.

It’s an embarrassing backflip for HBG if BOF is reappointed… they lost a battle for the first time

Well everyone got on board haha, the fans, richo, players, PVL and the media storm

 

[Telltails]

If OFarrell does come back surely he will insist that the three independents come with him. No point if it's a HBG dominant board.

No one on this Forum has to answer a question just because it's asked.

True.

But if someone is going to be vocal and repeat the same message over and over, it only seems reasonable that they can explain their position when probed a little further. If they can't, well, you can't blame people for thinking their position must be weak..

One for people power I suppose. This should not appease fans though. They are not fit to run a football club and maximum pressure still needs to be applied until they sell.

Well look at that all our fears of the NRL doing nothing has been flipped and quickly too.

Obviously they have come in and told HBG to pull your head in our else.
BOF to be reinstated and possibly some more to come.

Looks like the line in the sand has been drawn and they need to change their underwear

Where's @Vicious ?

I'd like to here from Chad 🇹🇩

@The Chad
What's your take on all this?

‘None of us are close enough to it … we’ll have to wait for further evidence and see if what HBG has alleged is true… “

 

[TheEnz]

Why would HBG appoint Elias?

Smokscreen and distraction to parachute in leo or burgess...make it look like they are considering the other side of the merger....thing is that most of us couldnt give a shit about magpies or balmain...this talk of elias just shows you how much these fwits are still hung up on the past. To them, everything is magpies vs balmain.

Yeah but it turns the talking points from serious to a clown show...everyone will be laughing at us if he is reinstated.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry. They've tied themselves in knots.

P.T. Barnum could not have imagined a circus like this one.

 

[TigerBurnsy]

Even Lee put some pressure on with the magpies comments

 

[Craegus]

The one thing we do also have to remember is that Richo did say he had to give 90 days notice, so that can very quickly change and can be cancelled, but HBG has to agree to it as a resignation is agreed to by both sides.

So he could just slot back in if Barry does agree to come back and that changes his mind.

But the fact above all else that we all need to remember is still HBG out.

Bang on

‘None of us are close enough to it … we’ll have to wait for further evidence and see if what HBG has alleged is true… “

Basically...he doesn't know...which we already knew

 

[tigahhh]

Where's @Vicious ?

crickets mate
everyone who has been defending their actions now has to rationalise the backflip of those decisions 😂 priceless

 

[Vicious]

Where's @Vicious ?

I’m here .
Just call me Nostradamus, how did I know to repeatedly say sit tight and PVL will intervene ?

 

[Squater]

Asic as well if HBG directors have acted improperly or negligently.

My old man used to say if it looks like dog shit and smells like dog shit. Then it is dog shit. HBG is covered in dog shit

 

[mtd#2]

If this whole debacle is to be calmed and stability is to be achieved the NRL/HBG need to agree on a new independent board

Chairman - NRL appointed
Board - magpie rep
Board - tigers rep
Board - HBG rep
+ 3 independent board members appointed by NRL/HBG (preferably the 3 that got punted if they would be prepared to come back and work with these HBG bozo’s )

Any future dismissal/appointment of an independent to be agreed by NRL/HBG

I think we are at the point where we need to cut the Balmain and Magpies representation. It brings nothing but division and gives people a reason to fight.

If we get neutrals on who's focus is to grow the Wests Tigers (based on the mission of the joint venture), it doesn't matter where they come from as long as they are good at what they do.

Undoubtedly this has been leaked in the hope that it will reduce the numbers at the protest on Saturday.Yes i certainly am a very cynical old bloke.Hopefully Richo is not far behind,the moron's at HBG have to go.

Possibly… but I doubt it will impact the numbers that much …unless further is announced in the meantime …
