Maybe the posh new members/corporate room wasn't open for a mere trial.

He could've shouted the sponsors a hot dog

Young playmaker Jock Madden will become Wests Tigers Player #244 after he was named by coach Michael Maguire to make his first-grade debut against the Newcastle Knights.

Madden will become the third player to make their NRL debut under Maguire this year following Jake Simpkin and Zac Cini.

A former Australian Schoolboy and New South Wales junior representative, Madden joined Wests Tigers in 2019 on a development contract — featuring heavily for the club's Jersey Flegg and reserve grade sides.

He progressed into the first grade squad in 2021 and recently re-signed with the club until the end of the 2022 season.

Madden has been impressive for the Western Suburbs Magpies in the Knock-On Effect NSW Cup this season, leading them to second on the ladder following nine rounds.

The halfback is yet to miss a game and has five tries and 33 goals to his name, to go with six forced dropouts and an average of 248 kicking metres.

“I’ve seen this club grow a lot since I’ve been here, and I feel like I’ve developed a lot as a player too. I’ve really enjoyed learning from the players here over the past two years and I’m looking forward to taking the next step in my career now at Wests Tigers,” Madden said.

“Everyone is really focused on achieving the same success here at Wests Tigers and I’m excited to play my part in helping bring that for our Members and fans.”

Congrats to Jock on his debut.

Not his fault the FG coach is a clueless nuffie.

Congrats Jock! Looking forward to see him play 7 hopefully.

The 7 is there if you want it bad enough ..take the opportunity good luck!

Got a sneaking suspicion Madden may slide into half-back this week. Will be interesting to see how he goes.

Would be even better to see the potential future halves pair of Madden and Douehi together...

Everyone is really focused on achieving the same success here at Wests Tigers

Funny - They must have a different definition of success in the Maggies Reggies compared to the Wests Tigers 1st Grade.

Glad theres no hype that there was for jake simpkins
Good luck to him....no one mention J Madden & A Johns in the same sentence eh

Madge may have borrowed Trent Barrett's hook for the game

 

[Mighty_Tiger]

Congrats on being named but geez as a bench player is hardly setting him up to be a success in the game.

Halves are meant to read the game over time and he is just going to get reduced minutes and be asked to do things not normal to a half. Madge has lost it.

 

[jadtiger]

I hope he starts and being on the bench is just a smokescreen

 

[OzLuke]

odd team selections or not Madge sure isn't afraid to throw the kids in there

 

[Guest]

Good luck to him, he'll need it playing behind our forward pack.

 

[Madge]

Well deserved young Jock. Surely Madden starts with Mbye to the bench.

Hope he doesnt get mad and den forget his Jocks...
