Thank goodness 1st Nov has come round and we can finally get Brydens off our gear. I have no doubt Richo is in the process of getting a major sponsor but just sweet not having Hagipantelis associated with this club anymore.
@lorenzo one of theHBG is Balmain appointed. Does anyone know who the other 2 are?

Welcome to the forum 👍 Yes, I think we’re all glad to see the back of this guy and his sponsorship.

Anyone have any info about major sponsor for next season?
I don't know about anyone else... but I am pretty keen for a new jersey that does not have a massive Brydens logo on it.
Would be nice to freshen up the design a bit also.
There was some talk that it might be Chinese EV manufacturers, BYD.

Nick Politis is the joint venture partner with BYD EV imports. I would be shocked if they sponsored the Tigers
I have been holding off buying any merch until the new season gear comes out....Unfortunately my daughter has a Brydens logo jersey, that will be replaced fairly quickly once the new gear is available. BYD have opened a new showroom on Parramatta road in Haberfield so right in the middle of Tigers territory, so it would make sense if they were the new sponsor.Thank goodness 1st Nov has come round and we can finally get Brydens off our gear.

Good question their website states the current "interim" board are as follows Board of Directors | Wests Tigers however if you check HBG site they have Dennis Burgess as a director of Wests Tigers in his profile and I do recall there being a reference to him as part of the new board It may not be entirely clear until the new board, including the non-exec roles they are recruiting is announced.@lorenzo one of theHBG is Balmain appointed.

@helmesy thanks Joel. I really enjoy the podcast mate. Please don't stop pumping them out over the summer, i still need my Tigers fix to get through to the trials next year.
With regards to sponsorship, I heard a whisper a month or 2 ago that Richo was in negotiations with a tech company. This could've been connected to the EV company, however what i heard was that this would be the biggest club sponsorship deal in the NRL. Its hard to believe off the back of our failures over the past 12 years but stranger things have happened, albeit not many 😀
@lorenzo overall disappointing as the WT board was supposed to be independent of HBG.🤷♂️
So the chair will be an independent non-exec member?7 board members made up of 1 independent Chair 3 independent (non-exec) board members and 3 exec board members from HBG. So they are recruiting the chair and 3 non-exec board members...the independent chair is currently Barry O'Farrell and you would expect he would get the gig ongoing unless someone much more impressive comes along.For those who have read the Candidate Brief, how many people, Exec and Non-Exec, will be on the new Board? It's not clear to me.
Is it 7 people or 11 people? I'd like to cut-and-paste the section I don't understand, but I'm preserving the integrity of the process so that's not allowed (even though I'm not submitting my EOI response and CV, which will be a massive relief to many on here lol).

Nick Politis is in partnership with BYD to distribute in Australia. I cant see anyone other than Roosters getting BYD.
Rather than BYD, it seems its more like TBA.

roosters just concluded their Hyundai sponsorship so pretty clear BYD is for them
Yeah you think if BYD was going to sponsor Wests Tigers it would have been announced on November 1. Somehow doubt it will happen now.roosters just concluded their Hyundai sponsorship so pretty clear BYD is for them

Most likely. Maybe Hyundai returns?
