Former Warrior Benji Marshall will begin his 2018 season with his original club the Wests Tigers after an impressive stint with the Mighty Brisbane Bronco’s. Also, worth noting is that the Tigers are coached by former NZ fullback and ex Warriors head coach Ivan Cleary. The hometown Auckland crowd knows both these blokes on-field tactics well and it will be interesting to see how fans react to their Mt Smart Stadium return for Game 1 of the NRL Auckland double header on Sat April 7th, 2018. Love em’ or loathe them the Melbourne Storm always add spice to NRL life & this round 5 clash with the Tigers will be no different. Expect the best from the Storm’s star studded team that includes league legends such as captain Cameron Smith and the 2017 Clive Churchill medallist Mr Billy Slater.
