Wests Tigers vs North Queensland Cowboys Preview
West Tigers take on the North Queensland Cowboys on Saturday evening and I personally think that this is the most intriguing battle of the week!
The Tigers incredibly recorded their first win of the season over the reigning premiers three weeks ago, before repeating the dose against the Dragons.
They were held scoreless by Souths last week, but it wasn’t a completely hopeless performance against the NRL’s current benchmark.
The Cows have also recorded back-to-back wins for the first time this season after following up their Magic Round triumph with a comfortable one over the Dragons last week.
I think that the Tigers might actually be going a little better than the Cows, and returning to Leichhardt Oval this week, they can win again.
