In what was probably the biggest week in Wests Tigers folklore since we launched the podcast, Reedie flies solo (for the majority of the episode) to talk thru Terrell May's signing, the retention of Fonua Pole and Sione Fainu, plus the draw.
The last few minutes features special guest and good friend of the show, Clayton Reedie.
And shoutout Pinch! -
Mac and Reedie begin with the breach notices for the Fat Five before discussing the allegedly successful meeting between Wests Tigers powerbrokers and Terrell May.
The episode then morphs into a fully fledged pathways discussion that encompasses NSW Cup, Jersey Flegg, SG Ball and Harold Matts. Our very uninformed opinions and clear bias shine through even more than usual.
This is the part of the description where we thank the all conquering Pinch Payments. Thanks, Pinch! -

While the rooks get down to training, Reedie and Mac discuss the efforts of our new recruits in 2024, where they fit in the jigsaw that is Wests Tigers, and where the ceiling is at this current time.
We also talk new training kit and wrongness of head amongst some of our younger stars among other things.
Shoutout Pinch Payments! -
Happy NRL New Year.
We get right into the weeds of our spine players this year, and remind everyone that we were aware of just how good Lachlan Galvin was as a schoolboy.
The boys celebrate the death of the Lee Hagipantelis era and the birth of the Jarome Luai era. Also talk Terrell May and Kobe Hetherington, plus the finalising of our top 30, which had a couple suprises. -
Sorry we're late!
We continue our deep dive into the season, where we review the "current" outside backs in our squad and look at what's to come.
We also talk the development list, John Bateman (hopefully) to Manly and the bowel troubles of one Charlie Staines.
Today's episode is powered by the all conquering Pinch Payments. -
As we reach double figures, Mac and Reedie take a deep dive into the departing and rookie outside backs that took the field for the wonderful (woeful) Wests Tigers in 2024. We also talk breaking news on Adam Doueihi and the ironically titled Awards Night and its subsequent departures list.
Same as last week, this is the first instalment of this positional group, with part two to come on Friday.
This week's episode is powered by Pinch Payments. -
We crack on with the remaining reviews for our current players plus some assessments of our rookies that will pack the scrum in 2024 and beyond for WT.
We also try to answer some difficult questions around whether the pack can improve enough to see the Tiges rocket up the table. -
A comprehensive review into our forwards has commenced, building on the statistical analysis of last week. We also chat long weekend, Grand Final, exotic craft beer, Heamasi Makasini and have some stupidly biased and outlandish claims on some of the forwards at Benji Marshall's disposal.
NOTE: This is the first of two part of reviewing the pigs. Part two to come on Friday! -
Aaaand we're back!
Apologies it's been so long. Between Reedman's Euro Summer and the Joe McCord Domestic Drinking Tour we've been far too busy to worry about the league's poverty franchise... until now!
Introducing Part One of our end-of-year review, commencing with the team and coaches. General small talk evolves into full blown stupidly complicated statistical analysis, followed by a look at each quarter of the season. We also have some big philosophical questions and talk a little about the upcoming Granny.
We promise we're back for good. Thanks so much to our listeners and Pinch Payments for powering today's podcast. -
We are once again joined by Nick the New Oracle who predicted we'd beat Canberra at Cambo with Lachlan Galvin starring to see if we can get him to manifest us another hoodoo beating victory this Sunday against the Roosters... plus we review the game, preview the next one, talk about Jordan Miller and Tim Johannssen and other nerdy stuff only Wests Tigers fans will ever care about.

Oh my word we won an actual footy game!!!
Join the Faithful as we discuss this historic victory as the youngest team in the history of sport conquered the mighty Gold Coast Titans at Leichhardt. All that plus a special NRL edition of #MillerWatch this week! -
A car crash begins this week's proceedings of Wests Tigers Faithless as we ask the question like we have so many times before: Is this rock bottom?
There's much to discuss. Galvin and Moses, Richo and Chammas, 44 points conceded in 40 minutes, a rather interesting teamlist, plus our weekly pathways wrap. Reedie also signs off before he ditches us all to live it up in the Mediterranean for five weeks.
Disclaimer: We recorded before it was announced Jordan Miller (!) would be making his debut. We apologise for the collective lack of excitement. -
A predictably Wests Tigers-less State of Origin is upon us, so the boys give their unsolicited predictions on what's about to go down just hours before kickoff. Jake Simpkin has gone to join Isaac Moses' Manly Sea Eagles, Stefano's about to head to market and we preview Round 14 against the Dargons (Staines in the centres?!). Navren Willett-sized pathways wrap finishes this week's proceedings.
-
Our second episode sees us discuss Benji Marshall's escape to Oceania to work on his handicap, review the latest visit to the Bermuda Triangle, aka Townsville, and go on something of a deep dive into our squad for 2025. We take a look at what's in the news (over to you, Buzz), while a more extensive pathways wrap up concludes proceedings.
-
In our inaugural episode, Mac and Reedie gloat about themselves, tell everyone why they've decided to bloat the WT podcast market even further and even have the hide to outline their goals and aspirations. They also get down to reviewing the all-too-familiar loss in the Dolphins game and look towards Townsville and the North Queensland Cowboys. Plus the inaugural Jordan Miller Watch segment and a look at what's in the news.
