It's very concerning that a great club man like him, the most experienced bloke (David) and the chair that had the guts to see this review through (Tony) were the 3 outsted.
Alarm Bells.

Yea of course, I'm only taking the mick... probs a bit harsh to only single out wayde. Fair cop ink.
Even if it becomes apparent the chair of HBG is chucking a bit of a Cersei Lannister, she's also been learning every day (for good or evil, lol) up close for 25 years, for as long and as much as any other fella has bothered to. In the grand scheme of things if Rick can learn so can Julie.
They were all abysmal on that old WT board anyway...

You show a fundamental lack of knowledge in how football clubs are run, as well as a basic year 7 knowledge of grammar.
We can only hope you're a long way from any dealings with WT or Wests Magpies.
In the end the ONLY way forward is for HBG to take a backward step and let independents run WT. That is in everyone's best interests. If Romero and her merry band of lunatics try and stop this from happening there will be a revolution against them.

Classic trolling.

What's the secret?
We're all here to support WTs I thought

Obviously, that is an essential task in any club. As one can see on Victoria Rd, no sinecure.
If the corresponding people in charge did the same at Balmain Leagues this thread wouldn't exist.

Maybe only 1 at this rate.
And with BOF really Balmain plus possibly Junior as an independent only 2 spots remain for ladies.
This precludes John Dorahy or anyone other suitable candidate from Wests (not including HBG directors) on the board.
This won't obviously be an acceptable arrangement for Wests/HBG.

Why do they want the power when all they do is send the footy club backwards? Can’t they see they’re not equipped to control WT and they need help? Sometimes you need to drop the ego and face reality.
How many do you want? All of them...Nah

The representation arrangements are not acceptable.
Besides, Richardson virtually endorsed the prior boards trajectory by doubling down on all their key decisions re the appointment of Marshall and the building of the team culture around Api, the initial approach to Luai.
So they must have done plenty right laterly otherwise there would've been a course correct.
It's not just black and white or (black and gold).

Those decisions should have very little to do with the Board. If they think they’re there to decide about coaches and captains, there is your problem.
Sheens was meant to come back to be that decision maker but they bungled that, and now we have Richo to decide the big footy stuff.
Board needs to stay quiet and ensure everything Richo wants to do is achievable.

Well actually it was relying on the pokie clientele that got BL club into the mess it’s in.
when the pokies tax took effect the little club lost even more of its profits. A bold plan to sure up investment opportunities in and about the area was screwed by a changing community demographic and a corrupt government.
Sure they didn’t jump on some opportunities when they should of. I remember the Appia Club being for sale at time when BL club were looking to make some profits outside the pokie takings.
Ended up being bought by my next door neighbour and was converted into a successful function centre; could have been perfect as a second or even relocated venue for the leagues club being so close to Leichhardt oval. Though I do have my doubts that anyone associated with the leagues club could of turned it into the same building as what it is today.

Apia club was once a good pick up joint.
Bit before my time unfortunately.

This isn't a Wests v Balmain thing, it is about getting the best corporate governance for the Wests Tigers.

The Holman Barnes Group agreed to implement constitutional change at the Wests Tigers that would enable each ownership group to have 1 representative on the board with the other 4 directors being independents. They agreed that these independent directors would be appointed through a recruitment process conducted by a recruitment agency and this process is underway.
To me the current blow up at the HBG is their matters to sort out and has should have nothing to do with the Wests Tigers or the review process.
To me all this highlights is why the review was needed in the first place.

Idk much abt the inside of the club, but could there be any connection with Lee and Pascoe and these 3, seeing how Lee got a hard on for the club and starting legal action regarding Miller and god knows what else. As you said i think its almost impossible for an individual to ban anyone from the places mentioned. Place is a mess.
