There is then talk around last Friday’s Awards Gala held at the ICC Sydney, everyone gives their opinions on surprise Kelly Barnes winner Sam Fainu and the other award winners from the night.

The discussion then turns to season 2025 and what player’s need to be let go and what positions need targeting for season 25. The team also discusses who they would take in 2 weeks when players for 2026 become available for negotiation.

The crew then takes a deep dive into the club’s new recruits for 2025, each member of the Pod gives their opinion on which player they are most excited to see join the club.

To end the pod the guys give their expectations for the upcoming season, will anyone agree with Steve’s top 8 or bust hardline expectation?

Wests Tigers Podcast 0363

The NRL off-season continues, but a big step has been taken this week in the return of the Wests Tigers for 2025.

Pre-season training has officially commenced and our star recruit has declared himself a Wests Tiger!

On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel is joined by Garry and Nick to discuss the latest from Wests Tigers HQ at Concord.

Some of the topics up for discussion include the video message to Wests Tigers fans and members recorded by Jarome Luai in the UK. We talk about the four-time Premiership winner's entrance into the club and what it means to the club, team, and fans.

There has also been progress in appointing new independent board members to the Wests Tigers board. That important development is also put under the microscope on this edition of the pod.

The boys also discuss the latest on Wests Tigers player recruitment, in particular:
The future of Jayden Sullivan at the Tigers
The chances of landing discarded Rooster Terrell May
The seemingly good chance that Kobe Hetherington will soon be a Tiger
How do we fit Sione Fainu into a roster lacking free spaces

Then the discussion turns to the 20205 NRL draw, and in particular the best and worst case scenarios for our round one opponent.

And there is a quick round of Buy, Sell, or Hold with topics ranging from round one centres to Brent Naden and winning streaks.

We hope you enjoy this latest edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast and don't forget to join the discussion today on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.

Wests Tigers Podcast 0365

The boys are back with Eddie, Nick, Declan, and Steve giving one thing they like about the off-season, as well as one Tigers-related rant. 

We dive into a deep discussion on the history of underperforming senior players against the culture and training standards at the club and who is more to blame.

We look at John Bateman's contract situation and whether more shaking of the tree needs to be done at Concord.

Eddie asks the boys what is one roster decision that is most important if they were in control over the next couple of months.

Eddie also states his case as to why the Wests Tigers need to sign Clint Gutherson as our fullback for the next two seasons.

Plus another edition of Buy, Sell, and Hold including whether it's time to drop the burden of captaincy on Api Koroisau, and whether Jack Bird can be our answer next season at lock.

It's a jam-packed edition with all that and more in over an hour's worth of debate in episode 364 of the Wests Tigers Podcast.

The off-season is well and truly upon us with the Wests Tigers players putting their feet for their October holidays.

But pre-season training starts in under a month and we now have the 2025 Wests Tigers coaching team sorted. 

Club legend Brett Hodgson returns to the fold to work alongside John Morris and Chris Heighington as Benji Marshall's assistants.

On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast we discuss the appointment of Hodgo, asking the question - was this just once again a case of "jobs for the boys?"? 

Beyond that coaching discussion we also wrap up the results of our 2024-25 Wests Tigers Fan Survey where will bring you the results from an array of questions, including:
Which is your favourite Wests Tigers home ground?
The NRL needs to rethink the use of the Bunker?
The NSW Cup side should be rebranded as Wests Tigers?
Which 2025 Wests Tigers recruit are you most excited about?

And things get a little spicy on the pod when Steve and Garry debate the question put to our fellow Wests Tigers fans - Will Wests Tigers finish in the Top 8 in 2025?

Hopefully the next edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast contains debate about some confirmed player movement, both into and out of the club, with fingers crossed next week's Player of the Year dinner will bring some news.

Until then, thanks for listening and don't forget to join us for plenty of lively and respectful Wests Tigers discussion on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.
