'Last straw': Tigers set for chop after 74-0 humiliation

A host of experienced players are set for the chop from the Wests Tigers following the club's dismal performance this season.Last weekend's 74-0 humiliation in Townsville was the last straw for club management, who are set to show at least half a dozen players the door.Veteran winger Ken Maumalo (Titans) and forward Joe Ofahengaue (Eels) have already been released mid-season, while centre Tommy Talau and much-maligned halfback Luke Brooks have both signed with Manly for 2024.Several other players, including Alex Seyfarth, Brandon Wakeham, Charlie Staines, Daine Laurie and Tukimihia Simpkins are off contract and most of these are likely to be released.But the blood-letting won't stop there as new recruitment manager Scott Fulton attempts to overhaul the Tigers' poor roster.Several players under contract for 2024, including injury-plagued utility Adam Doueihi are likely to be told they can shop around for new clubs.
