A civil war has erupted at the owners of Wests Tigers after the Holman Barnes Group moved to cancel the memberships of three directors.
Staff at three of the venues owned by the Holman Barnes Group , including Wests Ashfield, have been instructed not to allow Rick Wayde, Tony Andreacchio and David Gilbert from entering the premises.HBG is formerly known as the Wests Ashfield Leagues Club and is the main financial backer of the Wests Tigers, with Balmain Tigers RLFC owning a minor share.
This masthead attempted to contact Wayde, Andreacchio and Gilbert, as well as HSG CEO Simon Cook and chair Julie Romero. The NRL club has a long history of tension between the Wests and Balmain sides of the joint venture; as late as August, Balmain director Gery Leo called for Balmain to immediately sever ties with the Western Suburbs side of the merger.
