Wests Tigers NYC Holden Cup side saw their season come to a close on Friday night, going down 28-22 to the Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles in their Semi Final clash.
After starting the season with a new Head Coach in Brett Kimmorley, Wests Tigers produced another strong year to end the regular season in 5th position — going two weeks into the finals series before being eliminated in the exact same stage as they were in 2014.
Wests Tigers have now made the NYC Holden Cup finals series every year since 2011, and with much of this year's squad still eligible to play in the competition next year, Kimmorley's side look to be in a good position to be stronger again in season 2016.
Take a look back at the year that was for Wests Tigers NYC side with all the details below.
