G'day Lestronge...so you have admitted there is currently just as much destabilization coming from the Balmain side as there is from the West's side and I concur mate.
From memory you are the 1st person from the Balmain side of our JV to be brave enough to come on to a WTF which you know to be 99% dominated by olde Balmain fans and admit that, so well done 👍.
What ? There is no Balmain side nor is there a magpies side . There’s old dinosaurs selfishly clinging to memories form 25 years ago and everyone else !
You’ve been told this 100 times yet it goes in 1 ear and out the other . Absolute oxygen thief !
If you’re not advocating for a united Wests tigers then you’re basically saying F-U to the voiceless , the kids of today and the ones who arnt born yet , who just wanna be like thier hero’s Jahrome Luai , Api Korisau and the future face of the franchise Lachlan Galvin ! They don’t care nor even know who Balmain is nor the magpies ;
Source- my own children . “What’s a Balmain , they’re a coffee shop I saw a petrol station “ . Litterally last week that conversation happened .
Wake up to yourself !

Damn Suzie. You missed the toughest year. On the other hand Your energy amongst all the others propelled us to the maiden voyage. Thank You. Look at you today.
 
It’s rare I wish genuine hardship on people but the board deserves it. The board doesn’t reflect the attitude of the fans at all. The fans want the Wests Tigers to thrive. Not the Balmain Tigers, not the Wests Magpies. It’s the Wests Tigers baby!

I reckon the fans should storm the HBG office Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon supporter style. I’m going to buy one of those awesome wolf head hats - and a spear for extra dangerousness!
 
What I really don't get is why is there so much cross pollination between the Wests / HBG Boards?
It's has to be nothing more than self interest....
Burgess, Mongomery and Tropiano on the Wests Footy Board
All 3 of the Above on the HBG Board (Burgess Deputy Chair)
Burgess and Montgomery on the WT's Board (For Now)

The Wests Footy Board also has the likes of Cavanagh and Luibinskas
(Already been a WT's board Member)
Are we taking bets on whos spot they're lining up to take on the HBG or WT's Boards?

I think they're over complicating everything so much just to keep people other than their supporters at arms length
 
Sadly what I was worried about since this process started.

It will probably get worse as more people lever off process.

Any public process like this was always going to be destabilising in a JV with a broad fanbase.

And Sadly peoples true colours are coming out in this forum........seems anyone not fully onboard petition/review process even if supportive in a nuanced way gets abused and shouted down.

Very disappointing, and this BS is actually turning me off club.
There has not been one thing to prove anyone from the Balmain side has instigated this or even shown interest in it.
It’s rubbish.
The sooner this board is cleaned out the sooner it all goes away.
 
You’re the one with an agenda dude . The fact you’re even on here is puzzling considering your very obvious agenda towards the magpies , and more broadly the wests tigers as whole.
I can’t believe you’re using Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon labels , as a way of deflecting attention .
Every post you do, is always directed back to the magpies and constant damage control for anyone dares criticise them , I find it curious , because nearly to the man, bar you and 2 other people , everyone wants the foundation clubs to ride off into the sunset . Like a weird uncle , you only ever mention on thier birthday or special events .
I don’t know who you are , but if you’re not affiliated with Romero or Burgess , in some way , then I’d be beyond surprised !
No, I certainly am not affiliated with Romero and Burgess, don't know them personally as I have never met them.

You won't need to be puzzled anymore as to why I am on here Lestronge.

1...I have followed Wests Tigers from the very 1st game we played in 2000.
I still follow WT's and always will as they are my no. 1 team.
Wests Magpies on the other hand are like an old and dearly loved friend that I think about often, as we shared some good and some not so good times together since 1963 as you well know.
I haven't spent time with him lately, but did attend a game at Lidcombe Oval about 5 years ago. I arrived there at 1/2 time and he was getting a hiding in a match he was tipped to win.
Nuffin unusual about that for Wests Magpies or WT's is there.
And yuh know what, the bugger didn't wave to me once during the match 😛, so I was pretty pissed, but not on alcohol.
But as is usual with old friends, I still loved him anyway.

2...I enjoy reading a lot of the posts in various threads.

3...I feel I have made 2 very good and genuine friends [they know who they are, but you will never guess or know] that have inspired me. And believe it or not from my memory atpit they are both from the Balmain side of the JV.
How good is that 🙂.

But what I don't like is...you pick on my olde mate you're picking on me, so I feel a need to protect him as best I can if I feel he is being unfairly treated, and I do feel he is being unfairly treated irrespective if that is right or wrong, and let's face it 99% of the posters on here are olde Balmain followers including the 2 main protagonists in this move against the board, so the Magpies are copping a rite belting on here.
I would have thought there would be at least 1 person from the Balmain side that was prepared to stand up and give a full common sense un-biased appraisal of our current situation, but no, not one. So, this can only lead me to feel this forum is 99% biased against the Magpies.

***Just as a side issue, according to Copilot...Protagonists are often portrayed as the heroes or leading characters, but they can also be complex and flawed individuals.***
I'll leave you to contemplate this.
 
I doubt very much that Richo is running the board, or on 2nd thoughts maybe he is, being the reason he just hasn't had the time to reply to the 2 emails I sent him.
And I am a member btw.
Re. the power-hungry imbeciles...there isn't any on the board now as the dishonest, backstabbing turncoats have been suspended.
Ps...Wow! 😱 my messages have now hit 72. If you blokes keep on sending what I assume are Love notes, the WTF main frame will blow a valve or something 😆.
The truth at last… he stands with Julie and ‘Denny’. 🤣

They're not over complicating it - They're mainlining it.

If you don't support them, you won't exist....
Get a posie on the same page, then have them making the same decisions for everyone.
Everyone knows their place and the hierarchy is never challenged.

What they do when Richo and BOF walk has me curious....
 
No BZN stated in the past that the Magpies had vanguished Balmain. That is apparently the comment from him that I misunderstood.
You are not a truth teller mate when you CHOOSE to only tell the bit that you feel will get you the most sympathy.
Again, I'll be happy for you to produce the whole post where I said this.

Are you that lifeless that you're just scouring old posts to reply to?

Go back to 2010/2011.... Those discussions would be right up you're ally....
- Spoiler Alert, They ended up making the Magpie a tiny bit Bigger for you all

Wow,

So what have the WT board changes got to do with an external bid?

Is there an attempt to lever off this powerplay with anything to do with the review recommendations?

The only reason there is any talk at all about an external bid ( true or not) is the current board’s ineptitude and division.
It invites others to try to divide the merger even more.
 
Lol from the guy that would still be posting on here 153 times a day even if you were the only poster.
Mate you really need to be more mindful of who you are laughing at, or in other words putting down.
Seems to me you are letting your prejudice show.

Just for people that don't know prejudice can have harmful effects on individuals and society, leading to inequality and social tension.
