It was another weekend of mixed results in Round 19, with Ivan Cleary's NRL side capping off the round with a positive result against the South Sydney Rabbitohs.
The 22-6 upset win over the then top-of-the-table Rabbitohs keeps the ninth-placed Wests Tigers in the hunt for the top eight with six games remaining in the regular season, with their next challenge coming up on Friday night as they take on the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs at ANZ Stadium.
In other grades, the news wasn't as good for the club's Intrust Super Premiership and Jersey Flegg sides as they both went down to the Bulldogs at Belmore on Saturday. However, the club's Men's and Women's Touch Football sides both booked their place in the Grand Final with wins over the Newcastle Knights.
The NRL Touch Football Premiership Grand Final will be played at Cbus Super Stadium this Sunday with both the men's and women's teams taking on the Brisbane Broncos for the inaugural premiership.
The games will precede the Gold Coast Titans clash against the New Zealand Warriors.
