Episode Summary:
The Warriors have sent a massive warning to the rest of the NRL. Ian and Steve break down their statement victory over Penrith, including a dominant opening that overwhelmed the competition benchmark and a huge return from Luke Metcalf. With the Warriors now sitting No.1 in the podcast’s power rankings, the question is getting serious: are they now the team to beat for the premiership?
For Penrith, the picture suddenly looks very different. Isaiah Yeo’s injury could be a devastating blow to their premiership hopes, with the boys examining just how important he is to Nathan Cleary and the Panthers’ attack. Meanwhile, the Sharks’ shock loss to the Dragons sparks a debate over whether it was simply one bad night or another warning sign heading towards September. The Dragons’ young forwards also earn plenty of praise after taking it to one of the competition’s most highly rated packs.
Will Bedell returns with some extraordinary numbers, including a remarkable Broncos statistic that helps explain why their season fell apart, plus revealing trends around South Sydney and the Roosters. The Dolphins also celebrate their first finals appearance and emerge as a genuine danger outside the top four, while the premiership race continues to tighten heading into the final weeks of the regular season.
