Wests Tigers would like to thank everyone who has supported the Club throughout Season 2005 and the Finals Series. 2005 has been a year of unimaginable highs for Wests Tigers and this would not have been possible without the assistance of so many people.
Adding to the excitement was the record breaking 2.569 million Australians who tuned in through the Nine Network across the capital cities of Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne to watch the Grand Final delivering Channel Nine the most watched programme of the year in Sydney and Brisbane.
Understandably Sundays win was an emotional time for the players and staff who had put countless hours into making the Grand Final, and while that is no excuse for the language used during the post match interviews, it is a reflection of the raw emotion experienced on the night.
Wests Tigers would like to apologise to the families and young viewers who were offended.
It has been an amazing couple of weeks for the Club and the build up and hype was evident in the players post match interviews
I appreciate that some of the players interviewed were over awed by the moment and they sincerely regret using such language during the free to air coverage, said CEO Stephen Noyce.
