History of the Wests Tigers
How the Club Started
Rugby league began in Australia in 1908. The first league, the New South Wales Rugby League (NSWRL), had nine teams from Sydney. Two of these teams were from Balmain and Western Suburbs. They played each other in the very first round of 1908. Balmain won that game.
The Balmain club later became known as the Balmain Tigers. They were a strong team, winning many championships. However, by the 1990s, they were struggling. The Western Suburbs club, known as the Magpies, also had a tough time in the 1990s.
The league changed names a few times. By 1998, the National Rugby League (NRL) was formed. The NRL decided to have fewer teams. This meant some clubs had to merge (combine) to survive.
Joining Forces
Both the Balmain Tigers and Western Suburbs Magpies were looking for partners. They wanted to merge with another club to stay in the top league. They decided to join together to form a strong new team.
In 1999, the two clubs officially merged. They created the Wests Tigers. Each original club owned half of the new team. The first CEO (chief executive officer) was Steve Noyce. The first chairman was John Chalk.
Playing Seasons and Coaches
Coach Wayne Pearce (2000)
Wayne Pearce, who coached Balmain before, became the first coach of the Wests Tigers. Jarrod McCracken was the first captain. Their first game was a 24-all draw against the Brisbane Broncos.
The team played surprisingly well in their first year. They were often near the top of the ladder. However, injuries to key players caused them to drop out of the top eight. Joel Caine was the top point-scorer in the NRL that year.
Coach Terry Lamb (2001–2002)
After Wayne Pearce left, Terry Lamb became the coach. This was a bit controversial for some Balmain fans. The team had a difficult 2001 season. Some key players faced suspensions.
The team struggled and finished near the bottom of the ladder. Terry Lamb's contract was not renewed. The club then chose Tim Sheens as the new coach for 2003.
Coach Tim Sheens (2003–2012)
In 2003, the team focused on developing young players. A very talented schoolboy, Benji Marshall, made his debut. The team improved a lot in 2004. New players like Brett Hodgson and Pat Richards joined. The Tigers almost made the finals that year.
Winning the Premiership (2005)
The 2005 season was the best for the Wests Tigers. They made the finals for the first time. They also finished fourth in the regular season. Many people didn't expect them to win the championship.
The team became known for its exciting, attacking style of play. They won eight games in a row. In the finals, they beat the North Queensland Cowboys 50–6. Then they defeated the Brisbane Broncos and St. George Illawarra Dragons.
The Tigers played the North Queensland Cowboys again in the Grand Final. The Tigers won 30–16. Pat Richards scored an amazing try that started with Benji Marshall running 60 meters and making a flick pass. Captain Scott Prince won the Clive Churchill Medal for being the best player in the Grand Final.
Winning the premiership in their first Grand Final was a rare achievement. It hadn't happened in almost 100 years.
After the Premiership
After their big win, some key players left the club. The team struggled with injuries in 2006. They narrowly missed the finals. Brett Hodgson played for New South Wales in the State of Origin series.
The Tigers continued to miss the finals in 2007, 2008, and 2009. In 2008, they signed Gareth Ellis, a strong international player.
Return to Finals (2010-2011)
In 2010, the club signed former Rugby Union star Lote Tuqiri. Benji Marshall also signed a new long-term contract. The team finished third in the league. They almost made the Grand Final again but lost by one point in the preliminary final.
In 2011, the Tigers had another good season. They finished fourth and made the semi-finals. However, they lost to the New Zealand Warriors.
Form Slump (2012)
In 2012, the Tigers were expected to do well. But they finished 10th and missed the finals. Coach Tim Sheens left the club at the end of the season.
Coach Mick Potter (2013–2014)
Mick Potter became the new head coach in 2013. The team continued to struggle, finishing 15th in 2013 and 13th in 2014.
During this time, Benji Marshall decided to leave the club to play rugby union. Mick Potter's contract was not renewed after the 2014 season.
Changes in Ownership (2014)
The club faced financial challenges. The NRL (National Rugby League) stepped in to help. A new board of directors was formed. Marina Go became the chairperson.
Coach Jason Taylor (2015–2017)
Jason Taylor became the new coach for the 2015 season. The team finished 15th. There were rumors of disagreements between the coach and captain, Robbie Farah. Robbie Farah was allowed to look for another club.
In 2016, Aaron Woods became the new captain. The team had mixed results and finished 9th, just missing the finals. Robbie Farah left the club at the end of the season.
In 2017, some key players were considering leaving the club. After some heavy losses, Jason Taylor was dismissed as coach. Assistant coach Andrew Webster took over temporarily.
New Ownership (2016)
In 2016, the ownership of the club was finally settled. Wests Ashfield Leagues Club became the majority owner (75%). Balmain kept 25% ownership. This helped stabilize the club's finances.
Coach Ivan Cleary (2017–2018)
Ivan Cleary was announced as the new coach in April 2017. He famously told the players, "You are either on the bus, or you are off it." This became a popular slogan.
The team finished 14th in 2017. In 2018, they started well but then had a mid-season slump. They finished 9th, again missing the finals. Towards the end of 2018, Ivan Cleary left the club to return to the Penrith Panthers.
Coach Michael Maguire (2019-2022)
Michael Maguire was announced as the new coach. He changed the team's slogan to "This is Our Jungle."
Salary Cap Issues
In late 2018, the NRL found that the Wests Tigers had issues with their salary cap. This was related to an offer made to Robbie Farah when he left the club. The club was fined, and CEO Justin Pascoe was temporarily stood down. The club appealed, and the fine was reduced. Justin Pascoe returned to his role later in 2019.
Season 2019
The Tigers played some home games at the new Western Sydney Stadium. They had some good wins but also some big losses. They finished 9th for the sixth time since 2000. This was also Robbie Farah's final game.
Season 2020
The 2020 season was interrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Games were played without fans for a while. The team finished 11th. They also set an unwanted record for conceding many points in consecutive games.
Chris Lawrence and Benji Marshall both announced their retirement from the club at the end of the season.
Player Swap (2020)
In 2020, the Wests Tigers made history with the first "player swap" in the NRL. Melbourne Storm hooker Harry Grant and Tigers center Paul Momirovski swapped clubs for the season.
Ownership Update (2020)
The ownership structure changed again in 2020. Wests Ashfield Leagues Club and Balmain Tigers Leagues Club officially combined. This meant Wests Ashfield now owned 90% of the club, and Balmain owned 10%.
Season 2021
The 2021 season started with new players and hope. However, the team struggled. They paid tribute to former Western Suburbs legend Tommy Raudonikis who passed away. The team finished 13th. There were talks about coach Michael Maguire leaving, but he stayed for 2022.
Season 2022
The 2022 season was tough. Key players were injured. After 12 rounds, the team had only three wins. Coach Michael Maguire was dismissed in June 2022.
Brett Kimmorley became the interim coach. The team suffered their heaviest loss in club history, 72-6, against the Sydney Roosters. In round 24, the Wests Tigers finished last on the ladder, earning their first Wooden Spoon in club history.
Coach Tim Sheens (2023)
Before the end of 2022, it was announced that former coach Tim Sheens would return as head coach for 2023.
Coaching Team Changes
Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah were appointed to the coaching team. It was planned for Benji Marshall to take over as head coach in 2025.
Season 2023
The team started 2023 by losing their first five matches. This was the second year in a row they did this. In April, the club faced criticism for using an image of American soldiers on a special ANZAC jersey. They apologized for this mistake.
In round 9, the Tigers got their first win in a long time, beating the Penrith Panthers. They had a big win against the North Queensland Cowboys, 66-18. However, in round 18, they suffered a huge loss to the same team, 74-0.
In August 2023, Tim Sheens asked to step down as head coach at the end of the season. This meant Benji Marshall would become head coach in 2024, earlier than planned. Fans showed their unhappiness with the club's management by displaying banners at games.
The Wests Tigers finished with the Wooden Spoon for the second year in a row in 2023.
Independent Review (2023)
The club announced an independent review of its operations. Changes were made to the board of directors.
Coach Benji Marshall (2024–)
Benji Marshall officially became the head coach for the 2024 season. He added John Morris to his coaching team.
The 2024 season was another difficult one. The team had a nine-game losing streak. In the final round, they lost to Parramatta, which meant they finished with the Wooden Spoon for the third year in a row.
New Board and CEO (2023)
In December 2023, the board of directors was changed. CEO Justin Pascoe resigned. Shane Richardson became the interim CEO. Barry O'Farrell, a former politician, returned as the interim chairman of the board.
