Episode Summary:
The Sydney Roosters have thrown down a massive premiership marker. Ian and Steve break down their outstanding defensive performance against Penrith and ask whether the Roosters have now joined the Warriors as the teams to beat heading into the NRL finals. With their spine clicking, young stars continuing to emerge and big-game experience throughout the squad, the Roosters suddenly look built for September. The boys also assess Penrith’s adjustment to life without Isaah Yeo and why Nathan Cleary may need to take on an even greater role if the Panthers are going to defend their title.
The spotlight then turns to Brisbane after a passionate Broncos fan describes a club that has lost its aura. Ian and Steve dig into what has gone wrong at one of rugby league’s biggest clubs, the impact of losing Payne Haas and whether Michael Maguire can turn things around. South Sydney have also forced themselves back into the finals conversation, but how dangerous can the Rabbitohs really be if Latrell Mitchell returns? Meanwhile, injuries continue to reshape the premiership race, with Luke Metcalf ruled out, the Sharks hit by key injuries and Will Bedell uncovering some fascinating numbers around Cronulla, the Dolphins and Nathan Cleary’s increased involvement without Yeo.
