The Wests Tigers managed to make a meal of 'Spoonbowl' 2024, but we think most of our fellow fans weren't overly surprised.
With a chance to discard the Wooden Spoon, Wests Tigers put in one of their worst performances of the year to go down 60-26 against the Eels.
But does it matter if you finish 16th or 17th? Wests Tigers 2025 recruit Jack Bird (though still not confirmed as a signing by the club at the time of writing) has said missing the finals is a failure and worrying about positions from there is pointless.
We start this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast with a debate about Jack's position on table positions for non-semi-final teams, and look at whether it really matters if we have the spoon three-peat.
Also on the agenda, how do we fix our defense in 2025? After conceding a massive 750 points this year, is John Morris the man to turn this around?
Speaking of recruits, we also discuss the probable recruitment of Warrior's winger, Marcelo Montoya, and look at who else might be heading our way for a new-look side next year.
There's a whole stack of 'One Word' submissions from the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum, including submissions looking to sum up the 2024 season with just a single word.
We're slowly packing up and moving on from season 2024 with an increasing view towards a hopefully much more enjoyable 2025!

It is Spoonbowl Week and it is time for another Edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, on this edition Declan is joined by Jordan and Garry to discuss all things Wests Tigers.
The boys start by discussing the recent BTR interview with Shane Richardson where he discussed last weeks he put to bed the rumours circulating regarding the Balmain and Holman Barnes Group boards and the implementation of the recommendations from the review.
There is a massive game of Buy, Hold, Sell with topics including the recent signing of Royce Hunt and other potential recruits. Aiden Sezer's time at the club is also put under the microscope when Declan asks whether he has been a positive for the Wests Tigers?
Finally it is time for Spoonbowl and the guys take a look at the upcoming game against the Eels with the loser taking home the dreaded wooden spoon for season 2024. Do the boys think the Wests tigers can avoid the 3peat?
Thank you for joining us for the last pregame pod for the 2024 season.

It is Wests Tigers Bye week and of course this cannot pass without some turmoil in our club, with the abhorrent behaviour from both side of the joint venture's administration, the guys from the Wests Tigers Podcast put on their overalls to wade through the muck.
Eddie Otto, Steve Stretton, Declan McCutcheon and Garry Watson discuss in-depth the recent articles regarding the governance of the Wests Tigers including reports that Barry O'Farrell may be on his way out of the club and tonight's ridiculous revelations that Balmain may cease their involvement with the Wests Tigers.
The team then try to lighten the mood by naming Greatest Ever Wests Tigers Lineup to take on the bye for this weekend. Will you agree with the team put forward, let us know your team on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum | Wests Tigers Podcast
There is plenty of talk around what are the 3 most important things for Richo to get right in 2025.
Thank you for once again joining the Wests Tigers Podcast.

What's this? Two wins in a row! The Wests Tigers have given us all something to smile about with a second consecutive victory.
After a shaky start, Wests Tigers went on to beat the Manly Sea Eagles 34-26 at Leichhardt Oval on Saturday evening.
On this edition of the Wests Tigers podcast, Joel Helmes is joined by the returning pod stalwarts - Steve Stretton and Declan McCutcheon!
Garry Watson is on board too, and the big Wests Tigers victory takes centre stage (naturally).
Some of the key points of discussion include:
There's also a mountain of 'One Word' submissions from the ever-growing Wests Tigers Podcast Forum (thanks to everyone who took the time to leave their submissions).
And the boys give their thoughts on the potential recruitment of veteran, Jack Bird.
It's so good to see the Wests Tigers get a few wins as we head into the off-season and a new dawn.

It's time for an early edition of the Midweek Pod, with the Wests Tigers playing on Thursday night, the boys sat down to preview the upcoming game against Manly.
Eddie starts with his new game 'Goose of the Week' who has gotten under his skin this week? There is an extended edition of Buy, Sell and Hold, topics include Would you offer Galvin $1m a year? Does 5 wins get Benji a pass in season 2025?
There is also a preview of the game against Manly at Leichhardt Oval on Thursday night. The team give their fearless predictions, will anyone tip the Tigers for back-to-back victories?
Yioti's quiz once again closes out the show.

How good is it!? A post-victory edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast!
The Wests Tigers registered their fifth win of the 2024 season on Saturday night at Campbelltown with a two-point triumph over the Rabbitohs.
Aside from beating Souths, a great thing at any time, the win lifts the team one win ahead of the totals recorded in the 2022 and 2023 seasons.
It also keeps some hope alive that we might be able to hand that dreaded Wooden Spoon to another arch-rival, Parramatta.
In this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes is joined by Nick Hayes and Garry Watson to review the game, particularly the performances of some of the individual Wests Tigers players.
This includes a look at the quite raw, but still quite promising fullback, Heath Mason.
A stack of one-word submissions from the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum also features, and these range from 'Confused' to 'Relief' and everything in between!
We take a look at two things that might affect the 2025 Wests Tigers team, firstly, the importance of beating Souths and thus ending a losing streak that we didn't want to take into the new season.
Secondly, our new recruit Jerome Luai has a big challenge ahead at Penrith over the next six weeks, how will what happens to the Panthers in the finals affect our side when he lands at Concord in November?
It's so good to be talking about a Wests Tigers win and we hope that means you really enjoy this much lighter and brighter edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast!

The Wests Tigers have continued their latest run of losses to seven with another disappointing showing, this time against the Knights.
Playing in front of the Newcastle home crowd, the Tigers again conceded more than 28 points (that is now seven straight weeks), going down 34-18.
On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes is joined by Eddie Otto for a look at the performance.
There's also a big array of 'One Word' submissions courtesy of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.
And, although we hate to be having the conversation, Joel and Eddie address the rising concerns around the coaching of Benji Marshall.
Can the rookie coach turn this around? Or is it inevitable that a more experienced coach has to come in if we have any chance of getting back to at least respectability?
It's a tough chat around the future of a club legend, don't forget you can add your opinion on the Forum at any time.
We know it's a tough time to be a Wests Tigers fan, we're all feeling it too. Hopefully, things improve soon for all of our sakes!

As Garry Watson pulls some double time, he is joined by Nick Hayes for the Midweek Episode of the Wests Tigers Podcast where the boys discuss the latest news from the Wests Tigers and the upcoming game against the Knights.
