The name of this Wests Tigers Podcast edition is simply two questions, and we have plenty more! Joel Helmes, Eddie Otto, Steve Stretton, and Garry Watson are on deck for this later-than-usual post-game edition of the pod. As we know, Wests Tigers succumbed to the Eels on Monday afternoon. That result leads us to some big questions that we try to answer, including: When it comes to big events like this, why don't we often turn up as a team? Should we play home games against the Eels at CommBank Stadium? Did the club make some mistakes last week in regards to Lachlan Galvin? There are plenty of other things that get discussed as well, including the lies and manipulation in the rugby league media. What is stopping Jarome Luai from being more dominant in attack with the Wests Tigers? And we run through all the 'One Word' submissions from our valued Wests Tigers Podcast Forum members. Steve and Garry also let us know how the big Ambush event at Commbank stadium went, including info that came from guests Latu Fainu and Jeral Skelton. It's a bit of a different version of the Wests Tigers Podcast this time around, and we hope you enjoy it.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Lachlan Galvin saga has continued this week, leading to this bonus edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast. After a strong debate after the story broke on Monday night, followed by more analysis by Eddie and the boys on Wednesday, we now have this third pod for the week. We take a look at the press conferences held by Benji Marshall, then Wests Tigers' captains, Api Koroisau and Jarome Luai. Joel, Garry, and Nick give their thoughts on what was said and why we're starting to see the potential positives of testing out the coach and players' responses to a situation like this. Most importantly, comparing that response to what we have seen in the past from our club and playing group. Is this going to be the issue that finally helps turn Wests Tigers into a more focused and battle-hardened team? Let's make a statement against the Eels! We then turn our attention to the big Monday afternoon clash with the Parramatta Eels at CommBank Stadium. The Easter Monday fixture looks set to be a memorable encounter with the Wests Tigers no doubt out to tell the world they're bigger and better this year, with or without Galvin. The stats show Wests Tigers should be firm favourites, and the Eels have also lost a few players in recent days, but they do welcome back Mitch Moses for the game. We also look at the reshuffle of the Tiger's team, including the move to the halves for Adam Doueihi, and hopefully the remergence of Luai in Batman mode. The return of experienced centre Brent Naden also draws our attention. Big guests at the Ambush. Don't forget to get along to the free Ambush event before the game at CommBank, with two special guests ensuring it should be a memorable experience. Jeral Skelton will be a guest, as will Latu Fainu, and Garry will get the chance to interview both injured Wests Tigers stars. What we hear from Latu should be of particular interest! We hope you enjoy this bonus edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the managing director of Boxes for Business, he supplies businesses with quality cardboard boxes and practical packaging solutions, with a focus on sustainability. Navigating business ownership has deepened his understanding of small business pressures and motivated him to engage in national policy discussions. He has appeared briefly on ABC's Q&A and contributed to policy conversations by advocating to politicians for practical, business-friendly solutions and raising concerns with key business organisations, including Business NSW and the Australian Small Business and Family Enterprise Ombudsman.

Working from home was an experiment that really took off during the pandemic. It worked so well, many employers and employees continue to enjoy it. But what if that was to all end in an instant?Some big companies like Amazon have had enough of WFH and have ordered their workers back to the office full time. It has implications for worker productivity and staff retention that any business considering a mandate will need to consider. Today, economist Leonora Risse explains the “return to office” trend.Leonora Risse says some companies believe the benefits of being on-site outweigh the gains of working from home.She notes that Amazon's decision is seen as a way to enhance teamwork, learning, and collaboration. Leonora Risse suggests that companies should carefully consider the potential costs of losing valuable employees before making drastic changes. Featured: Leonora Risse, associate professor in economics at the University of CanberraKey Topics:Working from homeReturn to officeAmazon Employee productivityStaff retentionTeam collaborationHybrid work modelsGender and work flexibilityLabour market trends

We can’t ignore the number of domestic violence related crimes carried out across Australia this year. For a lot of women, domestic violence has left them with nothing; no home, no financial stability, and unfortunately in a growing number of cases, no life.

In today’s episode we’ve collated a list of practical things you need to remember before what can be one of the most dangerous, important moments of your life. If you or anyone you know needs to speak with an expert, please contact 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) — the National Sexual Assault, Domestic and Family Violence Counselling Service.
