I hope Cameron Smith sees this, he may play on for a few years yet and give West's Tigers first dibs on Harry Grant. @storm @WestsLifePod @EverythingWests @WestsTigers @NRLonNine @FOXNRL #NRL

With Grant and Addo-Carr not joining the @WestsTigers, who will the journos focus on that we are looking to pay overs? May sound rather negative but Iād be happy to keep our chequebook in our back pocket for next season and play the young blokes. 2022 is our year of rebuilding
Have the @WestsTigers actually signed anyone for next year yet? They would have one of the worst rosters I have ever seen for 2021 - ever the dogs are making signings at the moment?

Unwanted by the @WestsTigers. Heavily injured before he was 20. Now, a #CliveChurchill medalist.
@ryanpapenhuyzen is a star on the rise, but how far can the little @Storm fullback go in what is sure to be a glittering @NRL career? @TheSportingBase

Truly hurting for every @PenrithPanthers player tonight. 17 in a row, an incredible feat in a demanding season over long ago for @WestsTigers. These boys were the next logical choice to support today.
But, Ivan, this one's for you, couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke.
Tremendous speech by losing skipper James Tamou, @WestsTigers should make him captain as soon as he walks through the door
Nice recruiting @WestsTigers
Ryan Papenhuyzen wins the Clive Churchill Medal in 2020!
