44. Aidan Sezer | Behind The Roar | Official Wests Tigers Podcast

In episode 44 of Behind the Roar we chat to veteran half Aidan Sezer ahead of Easter Monday’s match against the Eels.

Aidan has played more than 150 NRL games and made his first starting appearance for Wests Tigers in Saturday night’s glorious win over the Sharks at Leichhardt Oval. 

He’s a wonderful character with a great sense of humour who is grateful for the opportunity he’s been given at Wests Tigers after spending four years in England.

Sezer, or ‘salad’ as he’s affectionately known, covers plenty of ground in this 40-minute episode, dishing the dirt on one of his ‘coffee snob’ teammates, and reliving the time in England when he fell victim to Johnny Bateman.

He tells us how he’s loving life at Wests Tigers under the coaching of Benji Marshall, showering praise on Api Koroisau after his ‘masterclass’ last weekend. 

Sezer also explains why it’s such a thrill to be playing alongside a rookie five-eighth, what the sheer presence of Justin Olam means to the team, why Bateman is such the good leader he is, and the backstory to Wests Tigers new team song.

You’ll hear about the improvements made against the Sharks following the loss in Canberra, and ‘the basics’ that the team must get right against the Eels on Monday.

All that and more on Behind The Roar.
