Wests Tigers Podcast Joel Helmes

Another very disappointing weekend for the Wests Tigers with the side falling well short against the Dragons.

That's despite a quite promising start to the game by our guys.

But what's come following that Friday night game has been an even more difficult pill to swallow - the reports that two of our best young players want out of the club.

On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes, Eddie Otto, and Garry Watson discuss the situation around the future of Lachlan Galvin.

Should we be concerned? Is this a Tedesco and Moses situation all over again? Or will Shane Richardson be able to manage the situation?

There's also a look at the coach. We hate to see it, but Benji Marshall is increasingly falling under the spotlight as the team records loss after loss.

But is Benji actually doing enough work? And what does it look like if we put more support around him?

And we bring also you all the one-word responses to Friday night's game against the Dragons from members of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.

There are all threes in the number of this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast...let's hope tonight's game against the Dragons isn't a step towards our third wooden spoon!

On this big mid-week edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Eddie Otto and Steve Stretton preview the looming clash with a team that has already beaten us twice this season.

But can this new-look Wests Tigers side (due mostly to injuries and suspensions) get one back against the somewhat hot and cold Kogarah side?

There's also a round of Buy, Sell, or Hold.

And the tables are turned for Yioti's Quiz with Steve becoming the quiz master and Eddie having to come up with the answers.

We hope you enjoy this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast and hope to return for a big post-victory edition on Monday morning!

It is Wests Tigers Bye Week, so we thought we would try something different. Joel, Eddie, Declan and Steve have taken the night off and Garry is joined by Rachel, Jordan and Nick as we give the show over to the listeners in our Bye Week Fan Pod.

The crew have a look under the bonnet and conduct a midseason review, Garry introduces a new segment that has the potential to usurp Eddie's favourite segment of Buy, Swap Sell. 

A mid-season report card is given for season 2024, what is working, what isn't and what can be fixed for the second half of the season.

Each of our guest hosts then give their predictions for the remainder of the season and their feeling around the future direction of the club.

Thank you for joining us for the Bye Week Edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast.

The Wests Tigers are guaranteed to walk away from this weekend's NRL round with a much-needed two points.

And, after eight straight losses, Wests Tigers fans also can get a bit of a break!

It might be a bye weekend for the Wests Tigers, however, the Wests Tigers Podcast never rests...or even takes a holiday in Fiji :)

Eddie Otto is in the host chair, Steve Stretton joins him for a mid-week edition just a little different from the norm.

It's mid-season report card time with Eddie and Steve taking a look at the individual performances of a number of Wests Tigers players so far this year.

The guys also take a look at who has been our best performer, who is our most improved player, the biggest surprise, and biggest disappointment thus far.

And Yioti serves up some brain teasers in his latest Wests Tigers Quiz.

The Wests Tigers have gone down to the Cowboys in Townsville to mark the side's eighth consecutive loss.

But despite the 42-28 loss, are there some real signs of life starting to emerge in this team?

Joel Helmes is joined by Eddie Otto, Garry Watson, and Steve Stretton to look at the green shoots that might be starting to show.

But it isn't all sunshine and rainbows (as you might expect after eight losses!), there's also a look at the not-so-good aspects of Friday night's performance.

There's a whole stack of one-word submissions from the members of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum too. 

The boys take a look at the omission of Api Korisau and Stefano Utoikamanu from the first NSW State of Origin side.

Ask the question, should the Wests Tigers look at appointing an experienced coach to assist Benji Marshall in 2025 and beyond?

Try to work out the real target for CEO Shane Richardson's trip to the UK. 

And there's discussion around the potential call-up of young Tiger's prop, Jordan Miller.

As hopes for another season start to fade away during the Month of May, the Wests Tigers Podcast team are back for another mid-week episode. Eddie is joined by Declan and Garry to discuss all the latest news in the world of the Wests Tigers.

With the big news of Isaiah Papali'i being granted permission to talked to other clubs for the 2025 season, the boys discuss the merits of the move for the club. The other news from today was Shane Richardson flying out for England to try and move some of the current roster to open up roster spots and salary cap for season 2025.

Another round of buy, sell or hold is on the Agenda, what curveballs does Eddie have for Declan and Garry this week.

The Pod once again finishes with Yioti's quiz, can you answer the questions the boys miss.

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Wests Tigers Podcast.
