Tigers roar back with forward pairs' return

LeagueNews.co | Jason Patrick

The Wests Tigers, facing their fourth consecutive loss to the Penrith Panthers, have some encouraging news as they head into their bye week.

According to zerotackle.com, key players Alex Twal (concussion) and Fonua Pole (knee) will be available for selection for the upcoming Round 16 game against the Canberra Raiders.

Latu Fainu and Jeral Skelton also made their returns to the field in the match against the Panthers.

Coach Benji Marshall confirmed the players' readiness, which could provide a much-needed boost to the team's lineup.

Pole, who was showing strong form before his knee injury, hasn't played since Round 10, when he faced the Melbourne Storm.

After undergoing surgery to repair a meniscus issue, he has also been recovering from an MCL injury and is expected to make an immediate impact upon his return.
