Round 14 tips: Phil Gould picks Wests Tigers for huge boilover against 'funny side'
Phil Gould has tipped the Wests Tigers to take another big scalp as the club's resurgence under Tim Sheens gathers momentum.
Having started the season with an awful losing streak that stretched to seven games and condemned them to months of negative press, the joint venture club has started to find its groove under the man who steered them to a premiership in 2005, winning three of their last four, including an upset of the Panthers and a 66-18 smash up against the Cowboys.
On Friday night their form will be tested against one of the hottest sides in the competition when they host the Raiders at Campbelltown.
