  • Wests Tigers Prep For Major Canberra Test

    Wests Tigers Prep For Major Canberra Test
    Aug 27 2025
    There are just two games to go before the Wests Tigers enter another off-season, but it's hoped our team finishes on a high.

    After a narrow loss to the Cowboys last weekend, Wests Tigers have a horror road trip to Canberra to face the high-flying Raiders.On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Eddie is joined by Nick for a look at our chances against a side looking towards the finals and their top-four finish.

    Is this a good time to play the 'Green Machine'? Or will Canberra use this game to make a statement to their premiership rivals? Eddie and Nick discuss the potential outcomes, including what attitude the Wests Tigers are likely to bring to the Saturday afternoon clash in the nation's capital. There's also a more analytical look back at the game against the Cowboys on this edition of the podcast.

    Have the Wests Tigers improved? We discuss that on this Wests Tigers Podcast. Nick brings up the 'Richo Meter' with the guys working to ascertain where the team currently sits on that five-level meter of progress and performance.

    The big announcement made at that game also features on the run sheet, with the boys having their say on the funding packages confirmed for our two suburban home grounds - Leichhardt Oval and Campbelltown Stadium.

    While Yioti has brought some brain-teasing Wests Tigers trivia, which includes questions on the Tigers and the Raiders, Scott Prince, and there is a top-level 'Who Am I' which identifies a player many had high hopes for!

    Don't forget to join the Wests Tigers discussion on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum, including signings and suggestions, and game day threads.

    Enjoy this big Wests Tigers Podcast with Nick and Eddie, and we look forward to bringing you the post-match edition of the podcast on Monday morning.

  • Wests Tigers Go Close But Spill Lollies Against Cowboys

    Wests Tigers Go Close But Spill Lollies Against Cowboys
    Aug 25 2025
    It was a memorable afternoon with the Wests Tigers showing how far the team has come in the past 12 months. But, sadly, in 15 minutes, the Cowboys managed to wrestle the game away from us at a sold-out Leichhardt Oval.

    On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel is joined by Nick, Zac, and Jordan to look back at the many highs and lows of Sunday afternoon's game. Yes, of course, Jordan contemplates whether he has put a curse on the club after so confidently tipping the boys to win three straight games last year.

    Well, it's now the end of 2025, and that mini streak still hasn't happened. With only two games left in the 2025 season for the Wests Tigers, we will have to wait until next year! See what Jordan has to say for himself on this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast.

    Some other talking points from the 6-point loss to the Cowboys include:
    • Why do we tend to struggle in big event games?
    • How much of an impact was it losing Adam Doueihi to injury?
    • How the Cowboys showed up to play
    • Our continued struggle in the red zone with our attack
    Some of the key moments from the game are also up for discussion, including the remarkable Wests Tigers try that was so akin to Pat Richards' Grand Final try twenty years earlier. There's a discussion about the continued impressive performance of Taylan May, the 'Rocks and Diamonds' that is Brent Naden, and concerns about our lack of bench strength as well.

    As always, heaps of Wests Tigers Podcast Forum 'One Word' submissions feature as well, and we take a look at the big news that the club has secured tens of millions of dollars in funding for an upgrade of Campbelltown Stadium.

    It's not a post-victory edition of the pod, but we hope you enjoy our take on an afternoon at Leichhardt that was oh so close to being a classic!

    There is the preview of the upcoming game agaisnt the Cowboys and what the Tigers need to do to come away with their third victory in a row.
