Wests Tigers are shining a light on the Club’s next generation, with the launch of a new digital mini-series, Coffee Chats – powered by DeLonghi.

The series sees the Club’s young guns sit down with Wests Tigers Player #189, Tim Grant, for relaxed conversations over coffee, sharing their experiences, challenges, and ambitions as they take their first steps in their NRL career.

As the squad continues its preparation for the year ahead, Coffee Chats provides insight into the journeys, mindsets and personalities shaping the future of our Jungle.

The first episode features Wests Tigers junior, Jared Haywood, who joins Grant to reflect on his first full NRL pre-season and what it’s been like adjusting to the demands of full-time training.

Haywood discusses the step up in intensity, the professionalism required at the top level, and the opportunity to train alongside some of the game’s elite, including premiership-winning hooker, Api Koroisau.

With Grant guiding the conversation, the series shines a light on the growth of the Club’s pathways talent and the standards being set within the squad as the next
generation continues to develop.

Coffee Chats powered by DeLonghi forms part of Wests Tigers ongoing focus on showcasing the players driving the Club’s future and giving fans a closer look at the work being done behind the scenes.

Episode One is available now on YouTube.

Any comments about him staying ? If not I’ll pass …he is likely out the door otherwise

I think he’s a chance of forcing his way into our top 19 or top 17 on a regular basis if he keeps improving.
I know he’s been around for a while, but would not be surprised if he’s ready to step up a level.
Obviously if he signs with Perth it makes it a bit harder as we would have one eye on the future.

It seems obvious he is going to Perth next year … I would prefer to develop others if that’s the case

thanks for posting that.
he was quite good in the trial match, and seems a good young lad.
hope he can make a name for himself.
