Ben Teo for defence coach please!

And if Benji only wants 'trustworthy' mates... Scott Prince.

This will not work with Heighno on the staff.

Heighno will want to sort that carpark appointment out.

Bit of a joke that the bloke Heighno told to tackle or he'll take him to the carpark to be appointed defence coach.

I can’t see Teo coming back here.

RE: Well Rested Wests Tigers Ready For Dragons Revenge

This week is, realistically, our last chance this season to possibly win a game. Surely there is sufficient motivation to avoid a double loss to the spoon team and to ensure we are safely away from spoon contention ourselves.

Best of luck to Saukuru making his debut. May he carry his Cup form and try scoring success into the nrl scene. A bulldozing run over the top of Gutherson would be great to see.

Shame about Schuster getting injured at training, was really hoping for him to start to build towards his nrl return too.

RE: 2026 WT Rnd 24 V Dragons

Mercy Rule — Wed, 12 Aug 2026 22:12:29 +0000

Dragons, currently last and 8 competition points behind WT, are slight favourites on Sportsbet, to beat WT at a Tigers "home" game on Sunday. Says it all really on where WT find themselves and the pathetic last 2 months they've dished up.

Yep, depressing. I don’t know where we find enough points again this week to beat them.

To lose twice in a season to a spoon side (if that occurs) must be unprecedented.

WT are the masters of the unprecedented, particularly if it adds to the long list of embarrassments and failures they've assembled over the last decade or so. They really seem to excel at that. And, of course, both the Dragons and Tigers are joint-venture clubs. That seems to be a brilliant model for success, eh?

RE: Wests Tigers Contract List

@tiger5150 I don't propose to be the white knight of anything and, if I did, it would not be for anything trivial like this forum, where we are all, including you, offering opinions. I just rail against the belittling of others who offer those opinions, such as you did, in your "clueless" comment. You could have ignored it but you chose not to and denigrated a fellow opinion contributor in @Teddy_S. That's reality.

Well Rested Wests Tigers Ready For Dragons Revenge

Joel Helmes — Wed, 12 Aug 2026 12:45:46 +0000

The loss to the Dragons six weeks ago was one of the Wests Tigers' low points this season, but there's a chance to get a little revenge on Sunday. CommBank Stadium is the venue for this clash between two struggling joint-venture clubs, with the Dragons looking to make it two in a row after surprising the Sharks last week. Of course, our boys had a much-needed week off with the bye, and that couldn't have come at a more needed time. Catch this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast with Joel, Nick and Josh for a look at the game on Sunday, including some fearless predictions. Other main talking points on the pod include: The injury at training suffered by Josh Schuster The two-year deal signed by Jayden Brailey Would Corey Horsbrough be a good addition to Wests Tigers? The long-awaited debut of Solomone Saukuru (with an update on his 2027 plans) As always, join in the discussion on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum, and we hope we all have a pleasant Sunday afternoon and a nice, happy podcast next time! Thanks for your ongoing support.

Schuster in hospital. Cleaned up by Twal in a training accident. Being treated for throat injury.

Bugger me, we can’t take a trick
