• Episode 127 | "NSW finally drop Teddy; QLD no longer underdogs"
    May 28 2024

    The State of Origin period is upon us once again as the official lineups for the NSW Blues and QLD Maroons were announced for Game 1. Our panel go into deep discussion for every selection, particularly the axing of James Tedesco and David Fifita, the dramas surrounding NSW’s halves, Api overlooked for hooker, the odd Selwyn Cobbo bench choice, as well as the 6 new faces for NSW and 1 new face for QLD. Our NRL coverage for Round 12 has been shortened dramatically after some technical issues.
