some real winners.on that board... lol
what a joke
what a joke
HBG showed their hand, they are all in now with the board named & have more than just external power on the Wests Tigers decisions.
If we get success they will deserve credit but if we don’t then fully expect heads to roll at the top especially as the majority decision makers.
Shows the true motives of the initial decision made and Daniel’s media stunt was just that a stunt.

hmm, did you just out a forum member?
Anyway, yes it has been on the agenda for ages.
What I suspect may have surprised Burgess and HBG would be the pricetag
The board committed to 30m? (combined) funding for Leichaert.
Campbelltown though came in at 50m.
I suspect HBG would have thought Ctown would be the minor stadium and they baulked at paying that much (with a stack of that money subsidsed by the government).
Ultimately...
The whole stadium thing sucks. Campbelltown has Raby, Airds, Claymore and a stack of poor suburbs and infrastructure needs. I back the Tigers, but we don't need 2x stadiums. That money could be way better spent, but people need to be re-elected so we waste it here.
Stuff the upgrades, go back to hills and ovals!

PVL totally missed the mark in terms of what he thought the main issue with the fanbase was, he stated that wests and Balmain will always be a part of Wests Tigers fabric. We don't really give a rats about either of them. The issue is the ownership and their missmanagement of the club. So when PVL went in, he may very well have gone in to fix a non issue.

I understand HBG, as majority owners, can do as they please but they should also be open to challenge given the lack of success in their tenure to date.

Now HBG have the boardroom like they wanted we just sit back, give them enough rope and watch them hang themselves, they won't be able to resist it. What are the odd there's more boardroom drama in like 18 months - 2 years time and then the N.R.L finally step in and get involved by appointing an administrator finally to sell it to someone else.
see u made it on the board , congrats

He’s a politician. They always target a lesser issue to distract from a bigger problem. Seems like they are doing something.
I would use an example from the Bondi attack but I don’t want to derail the topic.

Not sure what you mean. The funding is coming from government, not Wests Tigers.

We have to bite the bullet and have 1 stadium and tbh a new shared stadium makes sense. The NRL should show some guidance and make a ruling as to new or upgraded grounds standards and expectations.

I thought it wasn't all Government. <could be wrong>.
Let me check.
Right, we pay nothing. 40m from federal/state government and 10m from the council.

I think PVL will be around for as long as he wants the job at NRL so I’m thinking PVL has given HBG exactly what they want so they can hang themselves over the next 2 years , he will then step in with a your selling or I strip your nrl licence and hand it on to say Laundy who in 2 years would be ending stuff with the dogs , but also gives him times to set the take over in place , this would be the same for any other possible buyers , Elias and Co , etc , Burgess still on top of the HBG board worries me , and the Wests Tigers Board now has no football club experience , and Barry coming back third time shows he is not much chop , no way I would have come back after the treatment he got , I’m still not sure how this will go but previous results under HBg control are very poor , not one year that was as good as last year for Wests Tigers , members up , sponsors up , crowds up , profit first time , solid team , moved up ladder , good luck HBG tiger board
Why is that dumb?
If you’re stumping up that much cash you’d want a commitment to achieve a return on your investment I would have thought.
Looks the same as it is nowI thought it wasn't all Government. <could be wrong>.
