This will be an exciting step forward in Wests Tigers history. The quicker we get rid of the stagnant old board the better. Let's hope shortly Griffen is announced as the new coach together with new initiatives such as improved medical staff and injury rehabilitation facilities. .

Yes I agree with this quote. We must start re-building, and I think it starts with the 'board",

I like the looks of Anthony Griffin, I think he would be a good coach for us, but unfortunately sometimes these unfounded rumours turn out to be just that.
One step at a time I guess :sign:

“We are leaving the Club in strong hands to deliver an exciting future for our players, corporate backers, staff, members and supporters and we welcome the new Board comprising Rosemary Sinclair, Lucio Di Bartolomeo, Marina Go, Tony Andreacchio and Simon Cook,” said Bailey.

The faceless people now have faces…still awaiting the names of the 2 Balmain appointed directors...but essentially these five people control our club.
 
NRL STATEMENT - New Wests Tigers Board Members

The new Wests Tigers Board – which will take the club into the future – was unveiled today.

It includes three new non-executive directors chosen by a Nominations Committee comprising Wests, Balmain and the NRL.

They are:

· Rosemary Sinclair – who is a member of the Australian Communications and Media Authority and has an extensive background in senior telecommunications roles.
· Lucio Di Bartolomeo – the Chairman of Macquarie Generation and Non-Executive Director of Australian Rail Tack Corporation. Lucio has previously been in charge of NSW’s rail and bus services.
· Marina Go – the CEO at Private Media who will soon take up the role of General Manager of Hearst Bauer Media. Marina has had an extensive career in publishing and media roles, particularly relating to magazines.
They will join Tony Andreacchio and Simon Cook from Wests to make up the Board.

The three new Board members were chosen after an extensive process by the Nominations Committee to find the best people to lead the Wests Tigers into the future.

NRL CEO Dave Smith said they would bring valuable skills and strong management to the Wests Tigers Board.

“Everyone agrees that the Wests Tigers are poised for one of the most exciting eras in their history,” he said.

“The new Board members will join with the Wests Board nominees to provide the expertise and stability that the Wests Tigers need off the field while the team delivers on the field.

“It’s what the Wests Tigers fans deserve.

“All parties have worked together through a long process to come up with a strong leadership team for the future.”

Wests Tigers outgoing Board members are leaving the Club with an important blueprint for the future as they hand over to a restructured Board.

“Long running uncertainty over our finances previously made it difficult to propose the way ahead, but the Board has projected better times ahead following the release of secured funding from Wests Ashfield Leagues Club and the NRL,” said most recent Chairman, Mike Bailey.

“The lack of financial backing from Balmain Tigers and persistent delays in securing promised governance reform and additional capital from the League has created difficulties this year.

“However, the Board has been united in addressing numerous issues including the retention of Balmain and Wests juniors like Luke Brooks, Mitchell Moses, James Tedesco, David Nofoaluma and others.

“We also have approved a range of important structural changes to improve all aspects of Wests Tigers’ longer-term operations, despite facing recent criticism for certain matters over which we have had little direct control,” Bailey said.

He added that the long-running dispute with former coach, Tim Sheens had been settled to allow a smooth transition for the incoming Board.

Bailey added: “Those leaving the Board also insisted that the Club’s commitment to south-west Sydney be given increased attention, with the region producing one of our best match attendances for the 15th anniversary clash against Brisbane.

“Junior development programs for Wests Tigers embrace one of the largest areas of any Sydney-based NRL team, and the Board has delivered on fulfilling the demands of that enormous task,” he said.

In other developments over the past year, the Board has:

Overseen the re-signing of key sponsors including Meriton, Moment Media and Allied Express, with new arrangements secured with XCast and iProsperity

Ensured continued development across the Club’s large footprint through staff and player engagements with community programs against bullying; boosting reading levels for students; and re-establishing links with the Kids of Macarthur organisation

Supported one of our own through a successful function to provide necessary additional financial support to Simon Dwyer

Backed staff initiatives which have increased Membership numbers and attracted supporters both to games including a series of special events designed to increase their involvement with the team.

Mike Bailey said that retiring Board members had completed numerous achievements to benefit the club without making headlines.

“Past differences between groups formerly on the Board were put to bed some time ago and our efforts have been strongly united since agreeing early last year to begin negotiations with the League over finances and structural changes.

“We are leaving the Club in strong hands to deliver an exciting future for our players, corporate backers, staff, members and supporters and we welcome the new Board comprising Rosemary Sinclair, Lucio Di Bartolomeo, Marina Go, Tony Andreacchio and Simon Cook,” said Bailey.

how the hell can the club recover with 2 women with no league experience on the board , I would have thought we needed as much experience as possible, this is crazy.

I think you'll find we've got 4 of 5 board members without any football experience. Not exactly the best position to be in when we've are biggest problems are football related….
 
So Mayer lied again

He said we were having issues finalizing the board because we were struggling to find a woman wanting to join

And now we have two women

I don't have an issue with the fact we have two women , but obviously Mayer was trying to cover up the delay

Or the board has been in place for a while already , and that's why we have had things happening as in the GM advertisement and the potential releasing of the five players

All we ask is honesty , now lets hope the first decision the board makes is to sack the devious BSing CEO
 
There was no one with little league experience on the previous board and that got us to where we are now…I think if you stop for a second and look at their Business credentials you might be surprised....what has being a women got to do with it....

Which is why they are recruiting a GM of Football operations....the Board handles the business direction of the Club...The GM handles the football side....smart move IMO..

You will never please everyone i suppose...
 
Not real sure about these nominations yet. Certainly hasn't wowed me, but I think the roles are unpaid which could explain it.

They deserve a chance though. Excited to see how they go.
 
Only time will tell… Remember ARLC are paying WT to have a say in the running of WT. How long that lasts for is unknown. They (ARLC) want to get WT revived / up and running from a **business leve**l rather than a **football level.**

That is why we will be signing a GM of Football Operations

And based on that board he will need to be very experienced

Or they were initially struggling to find a female and things changed?
