The off-season is well and truly upon us with the Wests Tigers players putting their feet for their October holidays.

But pre-season training starts in under a month and we now have the 2025 Wests Tigers coaching team sorted.

Club legend Brett Hodgson returns to the fold to work alongside John Morris and Chris Heighington as Benji Marshall's assistants.

On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast we discuss the appointment of Hodgo, asking the question - was this just once again a case of "jobs for the boys?"?

Beyond that coaching discussion we also wrap up the results of our 2024-25 Wests Tigers Fan Survey where will bring you the results from an array of questions, including:

• Which is your favourite Wests Tigers home ground?
• The NRL needs to rethink the use of the Bunker?
• The NSW Cup side should be rebranded as Wests Tigers?
• Which 2025 Wests Tigers recruit are you most excited about?

And things get a little spicy on the pod when Steve and Garry debate the question put to our fellow Wests Tigers fans - Will Wests Tigers finish in the Top 8 in 2025?

Hopefully the next edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast contains debate about some confirmed player movement, both into and out of the club, with fingers crossed next week's Player of the Year dinner will bring some news.

Until then, thanks for listening and don't forget to join us for plenty of lively and respectful Wests Tigers discussion on the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum.
