NRL: Wests Tigers Team of the Decade with Benji Marshall, James Tedesco

The 2010s had the potential to be the Tigers’ decade, with all-time greats and a blossoming ‘Big Three’ - in the end it was more of a ‘what could’ve been’. We’ve named their best 17 from the past ten years.

James Tedesco, (C), Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah lead the Tigers’ Team of the decade.

• Roosters: huge names miss cut in star-studded team

• Canterbury team of decade: mixed era for Dogs of War

When you look at the Wests Tigers team of the decade you can see where their strength is — their forward pack.

There were some obvious inclusions with the likes of Benji Marshall, Robbie Farah, Gareth Ellis and Luke Brooks starring during the past decade.

But for the Tigers there is certainly an element of what could have been. Sure James Tedesco and Aaron Woods are in the side but they are plying their trade at rival clubs.

James Tedesco, (C), Benji Marshall and Robbie Farah lead the Tigers’ Team of the decade.

The likes of Andrew Fifita, Marty Tapau, Marika Koroibete, Nathan Brown, Mitchell Moses and Josh Addo-Carr are starring elsewhere having made their debut during this time and could have been central figures for the Tigers.

The team includes six players from the club’s 2005 premiership.

Let’s not forget the Tigers opened the decade with a preliminary final and semi-final finishes — with this team dominated by those who featured in those games — before failing to play another finals match in what has been a disappointing decade.
