Wests Tigers Private Ownership is that the Answer?

Private ownership hasn't worked out too well for the Titans.

I dont put that down to private ownership. Its the Gold Coast. No team has worked. The Suns are a mess aswell. The players go for the lifestyle.

Absolutely 100% correct! If HBG dig their heels in and are not willing to sit down with the NRL,l then end of discussion.
Clubs with full Private Ownership are:
Broncos, Sea Eagles, NZ Warriors, South Sydney Rabbits,
Joint-venture and Consortia Model:
Gold Coast Titans, Melbourne Storm, St George- Illawarra Dragons.
Is Private Ownership a given for success NO! But the club under the licence-ship of HBG has been messy and desperate times require desperate actions. But yes if HBG stand firm on their resistance then the NRL may have e to bring them to the table for serious discussions. Mr V'Landy seems to exercise a lot of sway with all things NRL.

I am an old Wests Magpies supporter and I am not impressed with HBG so I apologise leaving out Maggie fans.

Though im pretty sure if im the N.R.L ceo i can hint that they will not be recieving a renewal of their license to participate in the N.R.L so may want to consider selling while their asset still has value.

Exactly man . The nrl owns the licenses literally like the nsw gov. Owns your drivers license . They give it to you for a nominal time , but ultimately if you’re not meeting the standards required to hold the license , they can revoke it at any time .
The issue is building a case that the HBG arnt meeting the minimum standards . I think as the nrl under Vlandys tenure has exploded with money and expansion being prioritised above all else that it’s debatable .
As a football fan though , HBG are a joke and are literally the worst owners in Aus sports . We are the pre- Steve Ballmer La clippers .
Realistically , we will have to wait until the magpies loyalists on that board die off in the next 10 years , and actual Ashfield demographic club attendees get in the board re. The Asian community that actually find that club … ultimately leading to them devaluing the nrl ownership and selling it off .
Until then the ownership group simply love the power , and being in control of the battler wests tigers . They see it as a mark of who they are . Whereas the rest of us see it for what it is ;an embarrassment and shameful .
Unless someone can blow up the debenture system I simply don’t see it .
