The Wests Tigers Podcast teamed up with colleagues from several other Wests Tigers pods, social media platforms, and supporter groups to say, “Enough is enough.”
The issue we’ve all been fighting for under the ‘Wests Tigers Unite‘ banner is a review into what we all believe is the archaic and undemocratic debenture group utilized by Wests Tigers majority owners, Holman Barnes Group (HBG).
After launching the joint public campaign, including commencing a petition calling for the review, the Sydney Morning Herald confirmed a probe into the HBG’s governance had been launched by Liquor & Gaming NSW.
This is a huge result and means that hopefully, Wests Tigers can benefit from the implementation of review recommendations, including the appointment of highly skilled independent board members.
Working together under the Wests Tigers Unite banner are groups and individuals including:
- Rob Bechara (Wests Tigers Life Podcast)
- Tiger Town Podcast
- The Ambush support group
- Wests Tigers Forum
- Save Leichhardt Oval Group
And, us here at the Wests Tigers Podcast & Forum.
So, we thought we would get together and record a podcast that could be shared across the different podcasts. This edition features Rob, Zac from Tiger Town, Will (Spartan 117) from Wests Tigers Forum, and Garry Watson and I.
We hope you enjoy this unique collaboration podcast where we talk about the action, the investigation into HBG governance, the flaws in the debenture system, and what the future might now hold for the club we all love Wests Tigers!
There is two Magpies one on each sleeve of the Jersey and only one Tigers logo on the chest. Why is there any Magpies on the Jersey? To be fair and true to the merger there should be no Magpies and no Balmain word on the Jersey (and yes there is no Balmain word on the sleeves). Those two clubs are gone and we are now Wests Tigers. While the Magpies are on the sleeves it will never look or feel like a united team.
Appreciate everything everyone is doing, from all the pod guys down to everyone thats signed the petition

Great effort guys keep the pressure on, you have all done a remarkable job of uniting the fanbase and shining a spotlight on the incompetence and nepotism that is the HBG boardroom
