Wests Tigers Roar Back to Winning Ways Against Dogs Ep 468

The Wests Tigers found a way to win in a gritty and determined display against the Bulldogs on Saturday evening.

Coming off three straight losses and a horror run with injuries and a key suspension, Wests Tigers got away with a 22-16 win to take the side to 16 competition points. On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel, Josh and Nick first discuss some breaking news - reports that we're on the verge of signing the Dolphins' Jake Averillo. Averillo, who also played for the Bulldogs before heading north for a stint at Redcliffe, apparently wants to return to Sydney, and it appears Wests Tigers are favourites for his services. What would he bring? Where would he play in our backline? We discuss the prospect of Averillo becoming a Tiger in 2027. Of course, we also have a hefty list of 'One Word' responses and submissions posted by the members of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum. And on that Bulldogs game, some key talking points come up for discussion, including:

• The last-ditch defensive efforts that saved the night
• The couple of heart-in-your-throat moments that we managed to survive
• The performance of some of our star players
• Injuries, injuries, and more injuries
• The one guy that we probably have to leave behind to be a better football team

And there's also a look at the key stats from the game, the exciting wins for our club right across the board this weekend, and some thoughts on who might have to come into the team for this week's clash against the high-flying Panthers. Oh, and Joel has his finals countdown numbers to share; tune in or hit play to see how we're tracking at this point in the season. We hope you enjoy this latest post-victory edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast; thanks for your support!
