For just the second time this season, all three Wests Tigers grades recorded victories in the same weekend — taking down South Sydney Rabbitohs in Round 9.
It began on Thursday night as Wests Tigers Holden Cup side thrashed the Rabbitohs 46-0, before first-grade produced a stunning upset to down South Sydney 30-22. Wests Tigers Intrust Super Premiership then made it a perfect weekend by fighting back to defeat Souths’ feeder team, North Sydney Bears, 36-18 at Moss Vale Oval on Saturday.
All three grades will now have the weekend off as players fulfill their representative commitments, before returning next weekend to take on Canterbury and Wyong.
