Wests Tigers’ disastrous NRL season has claimed another victim, with chief executive Stephen Humphreys stepping down.
Humphreys told the team of his decision to resign after their miserable 54-10 thrashing on Friday night at the hands of South Sydney.
Humphreys, the son of former rugby league administrator Kevin Humphreys, took on the role in 2009.
Speaking on Triple M NRL, Tigers skipper Robbie Farah said he was disappointed by the news and praised Humphreys’ success at the club.
The joint-venture has historically struggled with the bitter divide between the Balmain and Western Suburbs factions at boardroom level.
