Wests Tigers face a must-win clash against Canberra without Adam Doueihi, who disagreed with coach Benji Marshall. Ricky Stuart shows no sympathy for their struggles.
Canberra coach Ricky Stuart has little sympathy for fellow rivals Wests Tigers ahead of their crunch clash at GIO Stadium on Saturday.
The Tigers are in turmoil following star halfback Adam Doueihi sensationally ruling himself out of the game after disagreeing with head coach Benji Marshall's call to parachute him to lock.
It was another drama the joint-venture club, who must win to keep their hopes of making a first NRL finals appearance since 2011 alive, could do without.
Marshall has also copped criticism over Jarome Luai's early departure to Parramatta next year ahead of his move to the PNG Chiefs in 2028.
