TIGER TAKEOVER GATHERS PACE
The push for change at the Wests Tigers is gathering momentum as a group of supporters campaigning for a full review of the club’s management prepare to meet the powerful Wests Ashfield group.
The group contacted Wests Ashfield boss and former Wests Tigers board member Simon Cook this week to update him on the petition they have kicked off, which now has more than 1100 signatures.
The petition is asking for the Tigers to be subjected to a thorough external review. At some point, it is likely to be discussed by the board of Wests Ashfield, who own a 90 per cent stake in the Tigers.
The other 10 per cent is owned by the Balmain Tigers. Wests Ashfield hold the whip hand.
They are the entity that have the power to usher in change at the Tigers – there have been recent murmurs that they may look to take sole control at some point in the future, although that has been denied by those with knowledge of the club’s operations.
The Tigers continue to labour this season and there are still issues in the background that threaten their ability to turn things around. The fact that a group of fans have been able to generate such support for their petition suggests there is a mood for change among those who fill the hill at Leichhardt Oval.
There’s an old saying that if you start listening to the fans, you’ll end up sitting with them. That said, it can’t hurt to hear their frustrations. The Tigers need all the help they can get at the moment.
Great work gentlemen

And I'm one of those "passionate and quite annoyed WT fans", but mainly because you didn't answer my previous post addressed to you.
As the main signatory to this petition, I would expect any questions concerned fans have will be answered, otherwise it could be taken that you have something to hide.

As you are one of the main instigators of this petition, I would have thought you would be prepared to answer any questions put to you.
But you have failed to answer 3 of my posts and the ones you did answer appeared to me to be very evasive.
I'm starting to think you have something to hide.
Are you mocking me with your lol.
I would have thought you may have taken the time to check the posts you have missed answering.
It feels to me like you are being evasive.
And the same for helmesy.
That's your decision lol 😂 and being fairly sure is not a real commitment is it, it's being evasive.
The questions I asked again was due to the fact you answered my posts in what I would call a very typical politician fashion...i.e. saying a lot but saying nothing.

Not political at all mate.
The idea of a professional recruitment process is to create a criteria based on the needs of the organisation and a skills matrix of the people already involved.
I don't know what that criteria would be so naming people that I think we should have on the board is not even something that I have thought of. What is more important to me is getting the governance and structure correct. I do have an opinion I what I would like to see in the that regard but that is also irrelevant as I would prefer us to conduct a proper external review to determine what the issues are.
