In a recent match, the Wests Tigers Jersey Flegg Cup side suffered a disappointing 24-18 defeat to the Melbourne Storm at Lidcombe Oval in Round 24, as reported by weststigers.com.au.
Despite the loss, the Tigers managed to secure another try in the 26th minute courtesy of Trey Peni, the lightning-fast winger who played a pivotal role in giving his team a 12-6 advantage at halftime.
Both teams continued to exchange tries in the second half, with Mitchell Jennings scoring Melbourne's second try while teenage fullback Heath Mason responded by reclaiming the lead for the Wests Tigers.
Mason, a rising star who previously played for Western Suburbs' SG Ball Cup team, has garnered praise for his impressive performances since being promoted to the Jersey Flegg Cup.
