Wests Tigers Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Winners are grinners, and Wests Tigers fans are grinning today after a gritty win against the Roosters.

This post-victory edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast celebrates that 30-28 win at Allianz Stadium yesterday afternoon.

Some of the key points for discussion include:

• The performance of all three Fainu brothers
• The crisp service from Tristan Hope
• Sunia Turuva impressed as a stand-in fullback
• Adam Doueihi's work steering the side around

With our three major strike weapons (Api, Luai, and Bula) all set to return to the team in the coming weeks, have we finally turned a corner?   

The guys and girls over on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum also come through with some great 'One Word' contributions post-match.

These contributions range from Relief to Poetry, and even Grand Final!

There were a couple of areas of our play that weren't quite as polished yesterday, and we discussed these.

We also talk centres, and more specifically, who should get the spot that looks set to open up through the injury to Starford Toa? Does Naden come back in? Or does Taylan May get a shot?

On the recruitment front, the boys state their position on signing a veteran wrecking ball prop from Canberra.

We also take a look at 'Richo's meter' - are the Tigers slowly moving up to average??Oh, and Steve has a rant about the price of food at the football!

It's great to be able to bring you all a happier edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast. Let's all hope there are many more post-win editions before the end of the season.

And don't forget to join the discussion on everything Wests Tigers at the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.

It’s the midweek edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast with Eddie, Steve, and Declan. After a promising start to the year, we weary Wests Tigers fans are trying to pick ourselves off the floor, and the podcast boys are no different. There is a preview of our sides clash with the Roosters, a game that potentially has all the hallmarks of a Wests Tigers flogging. But, with the Roosters also missing several star players, are they ripe for a loss in this one? The boys also dig into some of Shane Richardson's quotes on departed hooker, Tallyn De Silva. Was the boss right to let the talented rake walk now? Or is the club continuing to just be the NRL walkovers? Also up for discussion on this edition of the pod is the future of coach Benji Marshall, with the question being - can he withstand this firestorm? Is he too tight with certain players? Should he be joining in at training? And, is he safe beyond 2025? Plus, Eddie, Steve, and Declan rip into a few journalists and ex-players looking for clicks! And Yioti's quiz brings up a player who had big shoes to fill! Don't forget, win, lose, or draw, to leave your 'One Word' submission on the Roosters game in the live match thread on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum. And feel free to join in the discussion on any Wests Tigers topic as well! Let's hope that the boys can jag a rare Roosters win this weekend, and we'll see you for the post-match edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast on Monday morning.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Things were looking pretty bleak for Wests Tigers fans after about an hour in Townsville. However, trailing by a significant margin, the boys managed to regain some respectability with a late surge that fell just four points short. On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes, Garry Watson, Steve Stretton, and Nick Hayes try to make sense of the 32-28 loss. There were some worrying signs, there were some classic Wests Tigers-only moments, and then some real flair and potency in attack. So, where exactly are we as a football team? There's also a look at some of the promising performances from individual members of the team, including Starford To'a, Tony Sukkar, and Charlie Staines. But what about the new five-eight?! Heath Mason grabbed that number 6 jersey and did a lot right, both with the ball and in defence. So, what do with do with Latu Fainu this week? The boys try and answer that question on this edition of the pod. There are, of course, lots of 'One Word' submissions from members of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum, including one that brings up a left-field coaching suggestion. 'Peter A' from the forum reckons we should make a coaching change and bring in the former Eels coach, Brad Arthur. Another discussion on the podcast circles the refereeing, and we ask the question - does Benji need to burn $10,000 to get some respect from the officials? Or, as some members of the pod believe, are we ultimately responsible for the way we get treated by the referee? There's also some good news from the lower grades with wins recorded over the weekend. The question is, is there anyone we can call on to replace the HIA-affected Alex Twal?   Yes, it's another post-loss edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, but we hope you enjoy our take on things, and don't forget you can join the conversation now on the forum.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Wests Tigers are back in action again in just another two days and the Wests Tigers Podcast midweek pod takes a good look at the next game. That game is against the Panthers in Bathurst. It will be a big challenge, but the Wests Tigers have named a very strong team to take on the three-time Premiers. That team includes the returning Lachlan Galvin, Samuela Fainu, and Latu Fainu. On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Eddie Otto is in the host's seat and is joined by Garry Watson, Declan McCutcheon, and Steve Stretton. Aside from the Panthers game, the boys also play a comprehensive round of Buy, Sell, or Hold. For that segment, Eddie has come up with some super topics including:

• Why do we seem to struggle as favourites?
• Why do we seem to struggle on big occasions?
• Is there a chance Stefano Utoikamanu will depart the club?

Also addressed on this edition is some chatter that a couple of young Wests Tigers cubs are looking at an exit. And there's plenty of fun with Yioti's Quiz! See you on the bus for the trip to Bathurst, and we'll have the next edition of the pod for you on Monday morning.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A big afternoon at Campbelltown Stadium has ended in disappointment with the Wests Tigers putting in a poor showing against the Dragons. In front of a big home crowd, the Tigers started poorly and struggled to put any real sustained pressure on their joint venture rivals, eventually succumbing 24-12. On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes, Eddie Otto, Garry Watson, and Declan McCutcheon go back over the game and try to determine where things went wrong. Some of the main points looked at include:

• The slow start by the Tigers
• The performance of Jayden Sullivan
• Is Api Korisau 100% fit?
• Why did we pick a hooker on the bench (Simpkin) and not use him?
• How we compare physically to other NRL teams
• What this result/performance means for the Tiger's season

There's also a look at some quite reassuring things said by the man who was at the forefront of the review into the Wests Tigers, Gary Barnier. Gary was a special guest at the Ambush event held before the NRL game yesterday, he gave us all an update on how supportive the Holman Barnes Group is about following through on the review's recommendations. We also take a look at the Campbelltown game day experience and ask why the lines to to get into the ground so long? It's a pity it has to be a post-defeat edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast to start the week, never the less we still hope you enjoy it and feel free to have your say on our opinions on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Wests Tigers' performance against the Dolphins at Suncorp Stadium was the very definition of mixed. A poor start/first half, but then a spirited and much more determined second-half showing leaves us wondering just where this team is at. That's one of the things we try and determine on this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast.  Joel Helmes, Garry Watson, and Eddie Otto go over the game looking at the things that made us happy and the things (and players) that frustrated us. We look at the impact of missing Lachlan Galvin and the debut of young Latu Fainu. And just how much did the short turnaround affect the performance of the Wests Tigers, especially (seemingly) in that first half. Garry also has some details of a bonus edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast - an interview with the Mayor of the Inner West Council, Darcy Byrne. Garry and Darcy talk Leichhardt Oval and what the future might hold for the famous ground in coming years. There are details of this Sunday's Ambush event at the Beer Shed in Leumeah (we hope to see you there) and a shoutout for anyone still looking to join us on our coach trip to Bathurst the following week. It wasn't a post-victory edition of the pod this time, but we still hope you enjoy our analysis of the Wests Tigers latest match.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How good was that!? The Wests Tigers scored a memorable win over the Parramatta Eels at CommBank Stadium yesterday afternoon. The big Easter Monday clash was a real test for our boys, and despite most of the so-called experts writing us off, they responded in the best way possible. On this latest post-victory edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes is joined by Eddie Otto, Declan McCutcheon, and Garry Watson for a thorough breakdown of the clash with the Eels. Some of the main talking points include:

• The performance of Lachlan Galvin
• The Galvin hip-drop tackle
• Aidan Sezer and the difference he's made to the side
• The super effort of the Wests Tigers forwards
• And the big contribution of Justin Olam

Despite the victory, the boys also look at some areas that could be improved moving forward, and which players might come under some pressure after a big NSW Cup victory as well yesterday. And there's an assessment of where the Wests Tigers might stand compared to some of the other teams in the NRL. It's everything you need in a post-victory podcast, we hope you enjoy it!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
