Simona sticks with Tigers in NRL

Wests Tigers centre Tim Simona will remain with the NRL club until the end of the 2017 season.

Simona took up an option in his contract to extend his time with the Tigers.

The 24-year-old has scored 21 tries in 63 games for the club since making his NRL debut in 2011.

Simona is currently in camp with the Samoan squad ahead of this weekend's match against Tonga.

He recently served a three-week ban for a crusher tackle.
