Nobody… AND WE MEAN NOBODY… predicted at the one-third mark of the season that the Bulldogs would be leading the competition with Raiders in 2nd, Warriors 3rd and Storm 4th!.. The boys analyse the 2025 NRL Ladder and gloss over each club’s prospects at this point in the season… Over to Magic Round we saw every Queensland-based club (and Women’s Origin team) fail to bag a victory, Raiders and Storm deliver the game of the round (and possibly the season), the Panthers revert to their dynasty-winning-ways, Jaydn Su’A produces one of the worst try-scoring blunders in recent memory that leads to the best 12-pt turnaround ever, and much more!.. We end our episode with a wrap-up of the NSW Blues leading the Women’s SOO Series 1-0, the Super League Round 10 Magic Weekend results, as well as the results for the NSWRL Junior Rep Grand Finals!
