THE TEAM NEWS
WESTS TIGERS
- Wests Tigers were on the end of a third consecutive loss as they were beaten by reigning premiers Penrith Panthers last week and things do not get any easier for them as they take on Brisbane Broncos.
- Wests are still lacking quality in certain areas of the pitch but have made an interesting selection on the wing for this game with rugby union convert Solomon Alaimolo coming in to make his NRL debut.
Starting 13: 1. Jahream Bula 2. Charlie Staines 3. Brent Naden 4. Justin Olam 5. Solomon Alaimalo 6. Lachlan Galvin 7. Aidan Sezer 8. Stefano Utoikamanu 9. Apisai Koroisau 10. David Klemmer 11.

BRISBANE BRONCOS
- Brisbane Broncos blew Canberra Raiders away with a clinical blitz in the first half of last week’s contest as they scored 28 unanswered points on their way to landing a second win in-a-row.
- The Broncos have had some mixed news on the injury front this week with Ezra Mam and Selwyn Cobbo both ruled out but they have skipper Adam Reynolds back on deck along with Payne Haas and Brendan Piakura.
Starting 13: 1. Reece Walsh 2. Corey Oates 3. Kotoni Staggs 4. Jesse Arthars 5. Deine Mariner 6. Jock Madden 7. Adam Reynolds 8. Corey Jensen 9. Billy Walters 10. Payne Haas 11. Brendan Piakura 12.

THE PREDICTION
Wests Tigers will need to find a way to put a solid 80-minute performance together if they are to avoid a fourth straight loss. They take on a Brisbane Broncos side that will ask plenty of questions with the ball and Wests will need to be at their best defensively to keep them at bay. The Broncos have won three of their last four and their attacking quality should ensure that they record another success here.
TIP: BRISBANE BRONCOS -11.5
