## Resource

It was a huge night at Campbelltown Stadium with a sell-out crowd desperately trying to get Wests Tigers across the line. But, with a fourth straight win on the line, Wests Tigers couldn't get the job done against an injury-ravaged Brisbane Broncos , going down 21-20. On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast , Joel, Nick, and Josh pull apart the good, the bad, and the ugly from the Tigers' performance. Some of the main talking points include: Should Samuela Fainu be considered for NSW Origin selection? Should Heamasi Makasini be dropped to regain some confidence? What to do with the Wests Tigers halves? How Wests Tigers won on the stats sheet, but not on the scoreboard. How and why the team struggled just before halftime. Naturally, there are many 'One Word' submissions from the members of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum . Thank you to everyone who left theirs again. Also, the Richo Meter comes out, and the boys try to answer the question - did the Wests Tigers players start getting a little overconfident before this game? And, is it a good thing we have only a short turnaround before our next game? All that, and a whole lot more on this latest edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast!
