  • ROUND 18 PREVIEW: GET BURTON TO THE EELS! - Why Burton would be lethal next to Moses
    Jul 2 2026

    Dave, Mick and Readie preview Round 18 and dig into the big Parramatta question: is Mitchell Moses on $1.4M giving the Eels bang for buck? The panel goes back and forth on his form, his value to the club, and what he's set to earn when his deal ramps up in 2028.

    From there the boys pitch a wild recruitment idea, prying Matt Burton away from the Bulldogs to play six at Parramatta alongside Moses, and debate what that would actually cost and whether it stacks up.

    Plus tips for every game this weekend including Broncos-Sharks, Souths-Penrith, Parra-Manly and Knights-Dolphins, a look at the danger game for the West Tigers at Jubilee Oval.

  • ROUND 17 PREVIEW: 'If I'm Brisbane, I'm not re-signing Michael Maguire' Mick's blunt Broncos verdict
    Jun 25 2026

    Michael Maguire's Broncos future is under the microscope as Brisbane's form crisis deepens, while the panel asks whether the Dolphins have overtaken the Broncos as Queensland's premier club ahead of their Round 17 top-four showdown with the Warriors. Elsewhere: Cody Walker's future and Bronson Xerri's move away from the Bulldogs (Storm or Eels?), Spencer Leniu's Roosters exit edging closer, and Junior Paulo's Parramatta contract stand-off. The boys also lock in their tips for the full Round 17 slate, tackle the mailbag on the bunker's forward-pass calls and whether halves are over-protected by the refs, and debate who's really second favourite for the comp behind Penrith.

  • ROUND 16 REVIEW: CIRALDO’S Bulldogs WON'T make finals. Here's the spine that will.
    Jun 22 2026

    State of Origin fallout, Bulldogs' spine shake-up & Dean Young's Dragons future — Round 16 Review.

    Laurie Daley is under fire after NSW's Origin 2 blowout loss to Queensland, and the panel doesn't hold back Alex demands accountability from the coach, while Dean Ritchie pushes back on the personal criticism crossing the line. Is "sorry, we got it wrong" the speech Daley needs to give before Game 3?

    Plus, the Canterbury Bulldogs survived an ugly golden-point win over Manly, but Cameron Ciraldo's constant spine tinkering raises a bigger question is this team good enough to make the finals? The panel locks in the spine they believe can get the Bulldogs there.

    And at the Red V, Dean Young keeps finding signs of life in a one-win Dragons season. The panel asks the hard question: can you sign a coach based on potential alone, or does St George Illawarra need to look elsewhere?

  • State of Origin Game 2: "DALEY OUT-COACHED AGAIN!" — we build the NSW Blues team to win at Suncorp
    Jun 17 2026

    Following a humiliating 44-24 defeat in Origin 2 at the MCG, State of Origin Game 2 leaves the NSW Blues in absolute tatters. Michael Carayannis and Brent Read unload on the disgraceful second-half performance, calling out Laurie Daley getting out-coached again by Billy Slater's rampant Maroons.

    With the series heading to a Suncorp decider, the boys orchestrate an unprecedented roster cleanout, demanding up to 10 player changes. They break down the diabolical bench rotation that left Api Koroisau completely unused, the catastrophic Dylan Lucas selection blunder over Haumole Olakau'atu, and why bringing back Latrell Mitchell, Tom Trbojevic, and Stephen Crichton is the only way New South Wales can bully their way to an improbable series victory.

  • “PULL YOUR HEAD IN!”: Kalyn Ponga’s dangerous studs up tactic for Origin 2
    Jun 15 2026

    The NRL has put Kalyn Ponga on notice. We break down the formal warning over his parallel leg extensions and studs-up catching mechanics and what it means for Queensland if he can't clean it up before the MCG. Plus, the Brisbane Broncos 48-6 demolition at the hands of Souths was their sixth straight loss, and the reigning premiers are now on the brink of an unwanted piece of NRL history, missing the top eight entirely for the first time in two decades. Then we head to Leichhardt Oval, where Jarome Luai had a very pointed answer for his critics.
