The Sharks and Panthers have managed to knock the Raiders and Bulldogs out in straight sets respectively as all eyes turn to the Final Four clubs left in the race for the 2025 NRL Premiership!

Not to mention the casualty ward the Bulldogs copped against Melbourne despite the game being decided in the dying minutes, the Panthers slapping the Warriors, and the fiery clash between the Sharks and Roosters!… We conclude the episode with a Preview of the NRL Semi Finals with Raiders hosting Sharks and the Bulldogs hosting Panthers, the Super League ladder analysis before finals, the NRLW Week One Finals Preview, the NSW Cup and QLD Cup Week 2 Finals results, and the premiers crowned for Ron Massey Cup and Sydney Shield!

Episode 172 | “Grant played them like a violin; Payne Haas commits to Samoa”

We apologise for missing last week’s episode but the boys are back!… With three weeks to go in the NRL there are still some twists and turns, but the fact of the matter is that 11 clubs are genuinely still in the running for premiership glory in 2025! Round 24 of the NRL saw Harry Grant play Penrith like a fiddle, Dragons cruelled by another obstruction call blunder, Tino to become highest paid player, Manly giving up, and much more!… Also plenty to talk about ‘Around the Grounds’ with Hull KR set to claim the Super League minor premiership, Salford cancel a round game and look to be booted from the competition in 2026, Roosters still undefeated in NRLW, Pacific Championships confirmed for International Test Window, Payne Haas (amongst other players) confirm international allegiance, and Women’s eligibility tweaked to allow more movement!
