The Wests Tigers are making some big changes to their spine ahead of their crucial match against the Melbourne Storm in NRL Live. With the Tigers currently sitting eighth on the ladder, this match is a must-win if they are to keep their hopes of making the finals alive.
The Tigers have decided to move Josh Reynolds from five-eighth to halfback, with Benji Marshall taking his place in the halves. This is a bold move by the Tigers, as Reynolds has been one of the team’s most consistent performers this season. However, Marshall is a more experienced player and his presence in the halves could be just what the Tigers need to get over the line against the Storm.
The Tigers have also decided to move Corey Thompson from fullback to the wing. This is a big change for Thompson, who has been one of the team’s best players this season. However, with the Tigers looking for a spark in attack, this move could be just what they need to get their attack firing against the Storm.
The Tigers have also decided to bring in young gun Moses Mbye at fullback. Mbye has been in excellent form in the NSW Cup this season and his injection into the team could be just what the Tigers need to get their attack going against the Storm.
The Tigers will be hoping that these changes to their spine will be enough to get them over the line against the Storm in NRL Live. With the Storm currently sitting second on the ladder, this match is going to be a tough one for the Tigers. However, if they can get their attack firing and take advantage of their new-look spine, then they could be in with a chance of pulling off an upset and keeping their finals hopes alive.
