Wests Tigers Private Ownership is that the Answer?

It looks to me like HBG powerbrokers get some kind of perverse satisfaction just having WT on its books and watching it flounder.
Why sell when you can get this much entertainment for little cost?
As long as that hospitality, liquor and gaming empire is profitable, and the people holding the keys to the operation are on a good wicket from all of it - then the club results are really secondary. Whether its the Wests Tigers, or now the Central Coast mariners (W) as well
 
My final words on the subject I kicked off for discussion are:
1. We are the WESTS TIGERS and have been for for approximately
two and a half decades.
2. Balmain Tigers and Wests Magpies are mere memories of "once upon a time".
3. The Holman Barnes Group have proven to be consistent failures in the running of the Wests Tigers
4. The ARL Commission (governing body) along with the Chairman Peter V'Landys then followed by the CEO (soon to exit Andrew Abdo), and the NRL Administration, plus the 17 clubs (18 clubs in 2027 and 19 clubs in 2028) seriously need to consider extracting the Wests TIGERS NRL Licence from HBG.
They are an embarrasment to the great game and can no longer be permitted to hold the licence to participate in the NRL as the WESTS TIGERS. Whilst their ownership may be a somewhat privately controlled rugby league club made up of 90% Wests Magpies and 10% Balmain Tigers HBG have a created a massive divide between supporters.
In other words they couldn't organise a Sausage Sizzle at a BBQ.
An Auctioneers final words would be "Going, going gone"!
If you are looking for action from the NRL and PVL...

The NRL will intervene to the minimum extent necessary to protect its own brand

ie; If the Wests Tigers boardroom drama, warring and politics starts to spill over and threaten the NRLs brand or public image, there will be minimum intervention necessary to restore that image. Hence the reinstatement of O'farrel, but no real structural change otherwise

..

Think of the LA clippers who were badly run by Donald Sterling for many many years.. It was only when he did something that threatened the NBA's brand image that he was extracted and dismissed from ownership...

I google AI'd why wt have remained poor over the past 15 hrs. The response:

The main reason the Wests Tigers have remained a poor side for 15 consecutive years without playing in the finals is deep-rooted off-field organizational dysfunction and severe roster mismanagement. Experts, players, and commentators attribute their prolonged failure to an unstable joint-venture hierarchy, constant executive turnover, and a fractured team culture

Who would have guessed?
