The Wests Tigers might be having a well-earned rest this weekend, however, there's still plenty to talk about. We kick off this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast with news that has saddened the rugby league community, the death of Tina Turner. While not Wests Tigers related, Tina made a big contribution to our game and we look at how she helped change our game so significantly.  Then it's into the Wests Tigers discussion with Joel Helmes and Garry Watson taking a look at the now-confirmed move from Wests Tigers to Parramatta of Joe Ofahengue. That move brings up some interesting questions that we try to answer, including:

• Who should replace Joe on the bench for next week's game against Canberra?
• Does the contract backflip show we are still a bit all over the shop with forward planning?
• Is Tyson Frizell really the guy we want in return?

This also leads us into a discussion around the importance of stability and consistency in key football positions, something Wests Tigers hasn't had in years. We take a look at which positions require strengthening for 2024 and beyond and play a new game 'Through the Shredder'. Another Wests Tigers issue that is on the boil at the moment is the home-ground situation with Wests Tigers confirming we'd be back at Leichhardt Oval and Campbelltown Stadium in 2024. Joel and Garry take a look at that decision as well as options to make both grounds more up-to-date in the coming years. There's also plenty of feedback by way of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum, and thank you to everyone that has signed up and contributes their opinions and thoughts there. While Yioti has sent in a cracker of a quiz! We hope you enjoy this big bye weekend version of the Wests Tigers Podcast, we'll be back with another shortly.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
