Wests Tigers official podcast Behind The Roar is giving fans a glimpse into the club's up-and-coming talent as they gear up for the 2024 NRL season.
The 10-episode pre-season series features five players on NRL Development contracts and five from the top-30 roster.
Of these players, six have yet to make their NRL debut, but all but one have come up through the ranks of the Wests Tigers pathways teams.
The first player to be featured is Chris Faagutu, a middle forward from Queensland who represented his state in the Under 19s Origin this year.
Faagutu described the first week of pre-season as challenging, showing that the young players are ready to work hard to make their mark in the NRL.
This podcast series is a great way for fans to get to know the future stars of Wests Tigers before they hit the big stage.
