Umm, maybe fighting for success with one hand tied behind his back and a board that don't want success under the joint venture ring a bell?

And he would go ………

Back Door has been mentioned as a possible CEO of the WestsTigers .. can just hear all the Magpie fans complaining already .. !!

Would be interesting to have an 8 man bench

Sounds like this squad's worst nightmare given its lack of depth.

By anyone with half a clue?

Old tigers fans (e.g., me) would very likely not want such a parochial tigers man as CEO either; goes completely against the ethos saught by anyone with a united entity mindset.

As it is, with the whole 90% "Wests" board (or whatever), Elias even being close to being thought of sounds like an April 1st joke or just stirring the pot to me....

I think it was Chairman, not CEO. Either way, disaster

It’s a long way from Mount Druitt, are you sure about that ?

He's a new member.
Assume he's just a shit stirrer with nothing better to do.
A waste of space.

Jesus, check on Tuck.

I’m failing to see why Benji would leave or get sacked.
He now has more power than ever and is in a strong position knowing the entire club is in serious jeopardy without him.
He might now get a slice of Richo’s wage.

You're living in lala land

Isn’t it obvious the NRL club would highly likely fold if Benji departs anytime soon ?

Hmm said that for months for at least the start of the new season, too many doubts over Latu's reliability to be ready or stay sound, they will be cautious with him for months when he does come back.

No they won't fold.

We’d just be the new Gold Coast Seagulls for those old enough.

I reckon we will be lucky to get 5,000 fans to home games if we don’t get some extremely positive news that meets the fans expectations between now and kickoff for the 2026 season.
No club is surviving if there are barely any fans.

I reckon around 4000 if HBG are still calling all the shots

If Benji and the playing group stay the same, why would fans not turn up? I get it if the exodus after Richardaon continues, but if its just Richo that goes, then the fans will be there. We might hate the direction the club is going right now, but by kickoff 2026, Benji would have done plenty of interviews uniting the playing group with the fans.
