Eddie’s back! After a self-imposed break away from the pod, and the Wests Tigers in general, Mr Otto is back in the host’s chair.
On this off-season edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Eddie, along with Declan McCutcheon and Garry Watson, cover everything that’s been happening around our great club.
That includes more talk around the review into the Wests Tigers. The guys ask whether the delay in releasing the key review findings, or there appearing to be no major moves occurring at the moment, is a good or bad thing?
Should we be starting to grow concerned that significant reforms to the club’s administration and governance are/were a bridge too far?
Eddie, Garry and Declan have their say on all that.
Also, should the owners of the club be concerned about our major sponsor leaving if the review leads to the removal of Chairman Lee Hagipantelis?
The other big off-season talking point is the attempt to steal Jerome Luai off of the high-flying Panthers. There’s a discussion around how that may pan out over the coming days.
The boys give their thoughts on what Luai would bring for the Tigers, where he might play, and whether Penrith or the Bulldogs are a greater threat to get his signature.
Addin Fonua Blake’s future also comes up for discussion, including whether we should look at trading one of our current players for the big Warriors prop.
Adam Doueihi has been in the news over an off-field social media issue, but on the field there are hopes he will play a part in the 2024 Wests Tigers team. The guys give their thoughts on how he might be used.
We hope you enjoy the latest edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast.
Blore going to Melb in 25. What do u think. Why didn’t we do swap for Olam then.Is it due to getting Luai and chasing AFB?
