Excited - The boys starting the year with all surgeries completed, the injured crew fully fit/recovered and increased depth to assist with issues throughout the season. We all know we fell off a cliff when the injuries started stacking up.

Worried - Us needing to turn Campbelltown into a fortress. With no Leichardt and games at Brisbane and NZ, we simply have to win and win consistently at Campbelltown if we are fair dinkum about playing finals.

Most excited about for 2027 - Depth looks better. Having the players that started 2026 coming back to hopefully to full fitness. We sorely missed them in the 2nd half of the season. I'm talking about Taylan May, Sam F, KPP and hopefully a fit Bula. Plus having the experience of Frizell, Bailey, Mann and Averillo joining the squad. Also, Luai gone. He was meant to come here to play 7 and couldn't do it. Glad we have moved on.

What has you most worried about 2027? I still think number 7 is the most important job on the field and we don't have an experienced halfback running the team. I'm not sure where our direction is going to come from. Our strongest positions are on the edges. Without a someone leading the team around and getting the edges quality ball in good position..I can't see us making the finals again. Our shape would be so much better if we had a quality halfback.


...also excited about the new season merch coming out in a couple of days. looks good from what I've seen.

I'm looking forward to seeing guys like Sione and Samuela Fainu as well as Makasini/ Saukuru.

Mann, Brailey and Frizzell hopefully teach them what it takes to be a professional footy player. We won't see much in the first 10 rounds but when the niggles start, do they rehab it every day like they should or do they take the easy way out, start skipping training days etc.?

On this big off-season edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, we take a look at the things that get Wests Tigers fans excited and nervous for 2027. Where might Jamal Fogerty fit in if he comes across, and will more experience hold off the usual mid-season Wests Tigers slump?

Caught it on YouTube last night, and good to see something WT other than from the club again.

On another note, probably well past time that the thread title no longer had Eddie on it, and possibly a couple of new names since they have been regulars and even hosting ofor a while now.
