Wests Tigers Podcast has a special edition episode for you with a deep dive into Wests Tigers coaching and game play.
Eddie is joined by guests Rob Bechara and Coach Adel Hage from the Wests Tigers Life podcast for a look under the microscope at all things to do with the way Wests Tigers play, and are coached.

Adel is currently coaching Souths Logan Magpies in the Queensland Cup and was previously at the Wests Tigers working with the club's women's teams.

Some of the main topics on the agenda of this special edition pod are Benji Marshall's strengths and weaknesses as a coach, and a look at Benji's coaching staff and their different roles.
 
While other topics up for debate and discussion include:

• Are we progressing enough under Benji?
• What's a pass mark for the rest of 2025/2026?
• What are some of the biggest concerns from here on?
• How important is trust among the coaching staff?
• Benji Coaching on the sideline. Good move?

There's also a more specific look at the current playing style of the Wests Tigers. Is it unorthodox? And in defence, how is losing the collision affecting our performances, and how do you fix it?
 
Eddie, Adel, and Rob also discuss whether Jarome Luai's style will work with Latu Fainu, and is a potential move to 13 for Adam Doueihi a viable option?

There are also some broader questions for the boys to chew on, including: Are old-school coaches on the way out (Madge, Des, Flanagan, etc), and are young players more entitled, or is it the environment you create?
 
Hit play for a round of Buy/Sell/Hold with topics including the coach, CEO, Api Korosiau, referees, wooden spoons, and home grounds.
 
We hope you enjoy this special bonus edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, and don't forget to join the discussion on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.
