Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Buttface]

What needs to be considered is nobody forced Mielenkamp to stay at Wests Tigers if he really thought working here was untenable.
The fact he has taken on the role as interim CEO indicates he obviously believes he can make it work.

I must say, he did say the right things in his acceptance of the role speech. I like someone with a bit of self confidence, and he said he was going to make it impossible for for the board to replace him due to his hard work and good results during the interim period. If he manages to do that through hard work and good results then he will be good. But if he does it bcoz he’s a lap dog to HBG or has a $1m sack me clause then he will be no better than the last lot.
Let’s hope he gets the good results from good work.
Love ya passion V.

Good answer

Yeah, I thought so. 😎

I appreciate your thoughts but please stop trying to police the channel. Threads wander like a dog's hind leg. Always have, always will.

I don't think you understand the situation you're in.
I have marched on Kul's castle in Bavaria as I didn't like the way he ran the forum.
I am the forum owner now.
I am the captain now.

Of course he will get paid according to his contract, I’m of the opinion he was never really planning to see out the full term,

You do draw a long bow at times mate.

Maybe start a new thread for trolls?

You sound more like Dwight than Jim.

I'm of the opinion he'd be happily still running the place if the HBG buffoons hadn't sacked the board....again!

 

[innsaneink]

They have a 6 year/150k warranty?
Does Meilencamp come with that?
Richo’s warranty was a shite one Ink.

Take that up with HBG....

 

[innsaneink]

How much more evidence do you need that Richo was not honest with all his dealings ?

Sidestepping again...

His previous role wasn’t impacted.
He was the obvious choice as interim given what he has been involved with over the last 12mths.

Shaun could be the greatest bloke in the world right man for the job and all the rest of it, but if he pisses off the power mongers by - trying to unify the club - in a way they don't like he will suffer the same outcome as the last perfect man for the job.

More evidence? There is NO evidence. If you have some, let's see it.

He is on public record as declaring it a conflict of interest and subsequently having it approved by the board.

A lot of good people have been chewed up and spat out by this club. It's not about Shaun as you say, it's about whether HBG let him do his job.

There's no rumours of any recruitment in the near future mentioned anywhere to speculate about, what does he want us to do pluck it out of a bung hole.

It’s a bit of a cycle as a tigers supporter :
February march full of hope
March april may early wins give promise and I start factoring in semis
May June and I start to get worried
Just august NRL is dead to me
Sept I choose another team to follow semis
Oct I ignore footy
November start reading forum hoping for signings
December get frustrated with no signings and complain about the signings thread being filled with other stuff
January start counting down days until trial games
February . Convince myself tigers will play semis this season
And so it goes on each and every season. So please indulge me. It’s part of my cycle as being a wests tiger for life

Oh and did I add in that about July each season I start to dislike the roosters again and also the cycle broke last season when bulldogs also became an added team to dislike

And so it goes on each and every season. So please indulge me. It’s part of my cycle as being a wests tiger for life

And that's what makes it so much fun to support this club.
Imagine the boredom of being a Melbourne supporter with all that monotonous winning.

Sustained success boring! Are you a member of our board?

 

[pawsandclaws1]

If I was a player of calibre thinking of signing with the WTs, I'd have a get out clause regarding boardroom disruptions/dramas etc which includes significant penalty clauses.

F hell, you really are a Wests Tigers supporter.

Yes it’s been happening to me for the last 20 years .

 

[hammertime]

We really should keep this thread to signings guys. Plenty of other threads on the board.
