7th January 2025
Wests Tigers Unite Welcomes the announcement that Independent Directors will be appointed this month.
Wests Tigers Unite would like to officially recognise and thank Shane Richardson, Barry O’Farrell, Julie Romero and Simon Cook for their open and clarifying statements via the Behind The Roar podcast. It is both gratifying and refreshing to openly see Wests Tigers and HBG representatives working together for the betterment of Wests Tigers.
We look forward with anticipation and hope, to the independent directors being appointed at the end of the month and the constitutional change that will go along with that as recommended by the Crawford-Barnier report. We also anticipate and look forward to the constitutional change necessary that will support independent directorship at Wests Tigers.
We, at Wests Tigers Unite are committed to ensuring the long-term success of Wests Tigers in its current entity. We acknowledge that our campaign will reach its conclusion when an independent audit is completed, finding that the recommendations have from the Crawford-Barnier report have been implemented in full and that assurances have been given in writing that there will never be attempts to reinstate Western Suburbs Magpies or Balmain Tigers to the NRL again.
