Episode Summary:
State of Origin III takes centre stage as Ian Hawkins and Steve break down why New South Wales can still win the series decider despite Queensland entering Suncorp Stadium as favourites. The boys analyse the challenge of fitting Nathan Cleary, Mitchell Moses and James Tedesco into the same spine, discuss how the Blues can neutralise Harry Grant, and share exclusive statistical insights from Will Badel on Queensland's remarkable Game III record under **Billy Slater. The conversation explores why the Maroons thrive under pressure and what NSW must do differently to reclaim the shield.
The episode also reviews a huge weekend of NRL action, including the Dragons' important win over the Tigers, the Panthers' continued dominance, the Knights strengthening their top-four credentials, and concerns over the Broncos' defensive collapse. Ian and Steve also react to Cody Walker's controversial kicking incident, debate the NRL's punishment, and update the latest power rankings as the race to the finals heats up.
