What a Win! Wests Tigers Find a Way Against Sharks!

The Wests Tigers have scored a memorable win over the Sharks in Round 8 of the 2025 NRL season.

Coming into the game as outsiders, the Wests Tigers managed to hold the Sharks to 18-all at the end of regular time.

But in Golden Point, the boys found a way to win it, with Adam Doueihi kicking a penalty goal for the points!

After eight rounds, the Wests Tigers have eight points, a 50% win ratio, and are just outside the top eight.

On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes is joined by Nick Hayes and Garry Watson to look at the remarkable events that unfolded at Leichhardt.

Some big issues to discuss.

The two-point win raises questions around the rest of the season for the Tigers. For example, are there still more improvements to come?

What could be tweaked to make us an even more potent football side, not just this year but into next season too?

The individual performances on the day from guys like Sunia Turuva, Adam Doueihi, Starford To'a, Jarome Luai, Sione Fainu, Sam Fainu, and Terrell May.

While 150-game warrior, Alex Twal, also gets a special mention, not just for his efforts yesterday, but for what he's brought to the Wests Tigers during his career.

Naturally, the boys give their one-word submissions from the roller-coaster experience that was Tigers V Sharks, and there are plenty of submissions from members of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum too. 

And we give our take on 'Richo's Meter" too, determining just where the Tigers are currently sitting on that Poor to Great scale.

While there's also a little bit of player transfer news around that comes up for discussion, including the departure of Tim Johanssen from the club.

But really, it's all about a dogged and determined Wests Tigers team that did us all proud at Leichhardt Oval yesterday.
