Tigers powerbrokers have discussed the possibility of bringing the likes of former NSW premier Barry O’Farrell, as well as former AOC president John Coates, onto the board.

A civil war is set to erupt at the Wests Tigers with chairman Lee Hagipantelis on the brink of being overthrown after rejecting an invitation from the club’s majority shareholder to stand down from his position just days after being re-appointed.

Andreacchio also informed Hagipantelis that his tenure was only extended as an independent director and not as chairman despite News Corp last month reporting that Hagipantelis was re-elected as chairman of the Wests Tigers until November 2025.The move could put the club’s near $1,000,000 a season major sponsorship deal with Hagipantelis’ company Bryden’s Lawyers in jeopardy.

“The Holman Barnes Group is one of the major shareholders and are very much behind it. I think any comment doesn’t serve any purpose at the moment. Currently he is the chairman.” “Independent directors are always open up to review to see who is available and who would like to come on,” he said. “It’s something we’re holding off on until the end of this review. Until then, there’ll be no further action. I don’t want to derail the review in any shape or form.”

The donation for this group is a tax-deductible $100,000 for a lifetime involvement — it can be made in pairs and payment plans up to four years.

Kevin McCarthy’s ousting reveals ‘civil war’ within Republican PartyKevin McCarthy’s ousting reveals ‘civil war’ within Republican PartySky News US contributor Michael Ware says the ousting of Kevin McCarthy from his seat in the US House of Representatives is an insight into the “civil war” within the Republican Party. “The Republican Party is currently fighting for its own identity,” Mr Ware told Sky News Australia. “We are now seeing it play out on the floor of the House of Representatives.” This motion to vacate was put forward by Republican Matt Gaetz, who has been quite critical of Mr McCarthy. It landed hard after the House Speaker agreed to extend the deadline for the government shutdown on Saturday, making a deal with the Democrats to make this happen.
