We sit down with two of our favourites, Tim and Noah Johannssen, about life inside and outside the system that is Wests Tigers.

Benji's given us his first team list of the year to review as we preview Trial 1 against the Dogs, and we give the run-down on our Pathways sides and their efforts from the week previous.

Providing unfettered access to Wests Tigers apologists the world over, Joe McCord and Jarrod Reedie have the pleasure of hosting Wests Tigers Player #112 and club Pathways & Recruitment Manager, Shannon Gallant, who provides us with some incredible insights into the world of junior representative football.

We also review the week that was for our Harold Matts and SG Ball sides.

Like a front rower in Fat Club during the first week of November, we're rusty and we've sunk too much piss, but we're so back.

This episode is saved by an interview with Wests SG Ball Assistant Coach, Mitchell Tyler, who gives us some insight on a special playing group ahead of season 2025.

We also dissect everything that happened while we were gone, give unwarranted opinions on many talking points above our paygrade and explore the futures of our State Cup, Jersey Flegg, SG Ball and Harold Matthews teams, with the latter two kicking off their campaigns this weekend.

Silly season is in full swing evidenced by the fact the lads are recording in person for the first time, hosted by The Edinburgh Castle in the centre of the greatest city in the world.

A review of the news cycle evolves into a business-esque SWOT analysis of Wests Tigers and a handful of their competition counterparts.

2024 has been a ride. Thank you to everyone who jumped in and played a part. See y'all in 2025. Have a safe and happy holiday season.

Disclaimer: Little bit more explicit language than usual.

The prodigal son returns as Mac's back on the mic, mercilessly turfing Reedie's dad back to listenership.

He gives us his thoughts on Terrell May, Fonua Pole and the draw before we talk new jerseys, new sponsors and finally a comprehensive exploration of Wests Tigers' roster, salary cap and positions of interest for the 2026 season.

In what was probably the biggest week in Wests Tigers folklore since we launched the podcast, Reedie flies solo (for the majority of the episode) to talk thru Terrell May's signing, the retention of Fonua Pole and Sione Fainu, plus the draw.

The last few minutes features special guest and good friend of the show, Clayton Reedie.

And shoutout Pinch!

Mac and Reedie begin with the breach notices for the Fat Five before discussing the allegedly successful meeting between Wests Tigers powerbrokers and Terrell May.

The episode then morphs into a fully fledged pathways discussion that encompasses NSW Cup, Jersey Flegg, SG Ball and Harold Matts. Our very uninformed opinions and clear bias shine through even more than usual.

This is the part of the description where we thank the all conquering Pinch Payments. Thanks, Pinch!

While the rooks get down to training, Reedie and Mac discuss the efforts of our new recruits in 2024, where they fit in the jigsaw that is Wests Tigers, and where the ceiling is at this current time.

We also talk new training kit and wrongness of head amongst some of our younger stars among other things.

Shoutout Pinch Payments!

Happy NRL New Year.

We get right into the weeds of our spine players this year, and remind everyone that we were aware of just how good Lachlan Galvin was as a schoolboy.

The boys celebrate the death of the Lee Hagipantelis era and the birth of the Jarome Luai era. Also talk Terrell May and Kobe Hetherington, plus the finalising of our top 30, which had a couple suprises.

Sorry we're late!

We continue our deep dive into the season, where we review the "current" outside backs in our squad and look at what's to come. 

We also talk the development list, John Bateman (hopefully) to Manly and the bowel troubles of one Charlie Staines.
