The Wests Tigers have once again lost a game by just a handful of points at Campbelltown Stadium.

After a somewhat disappointing first half, Wests Tigers trailed the Raiders 0-16 at halftime in the Friday night clash.

Some positional changes and the injection of a young star off the bench saw the Tigers get back in the game, scoring two quick tries after the break.

But the more fancied opponents held on for a 12-16 win.

The game comes on the back of mostly improved performances from our boys, but at least one member of the Wests Tigers Podcast team believes there's still one critical component missing - that killer instinct.

Have a listen and see if you agree or disagree, and as always, have your say on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.

Also on this edition of the podcast, we share a great post from a Wests Tigers fan on Facebook, and this generates a debate on many aspects of the club we love.

Also up for discussion is the performance on Friday night of the Fainu brothers.

We also examine the other notable aspects of the Tigers' performance.

The bench and some individual efforts come in for some scrutiny, too.

Maybe on a not-unrelated topic, do we try and get Kai Pearce-Paul from the Knights this week? That deal would include letting Tallyn Da Silva go up the M1 on loan. See what the Wests Tigers Podcast team thinks of that possible move on this edition.

There's also a plethora of one-word contributions from the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum too.

It gets a little spicy at times, and some are more positive than others, but we hope you enjoy this big edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast.
