About this listen

This episode sees the much-loved Around the Grounds segment return, as the boys whip around the leagues to bring you the best bits, worst losses, biggest blow-ups, and unexpected upsets from the weekend's action. From local legends to international headlines, nothing escapes their radar.

Dukie is still Crunching Numbers like a complete nerd—his words, not ours—and somehow makes deep-dive analytics actually entertaining. Expect everything from player averages and injury impacts to the sneaky trends no one else is talking about. If you're betting, tipping, or just want to win a pub argument, this is the stuff you need.

And speaking of tips, Josh has absolutely nailed it this week with his NRL predictions. He’s picked winners, spotted the flops, and might just be the reason your footy tipping comp gets a shake-up. Keep an ear out—he’s in career-best form.

Simmo’s also launched a brand-new segment called Simon Says, stepping in to replace an old favourite. It’s part rant, part wisdom, part chaos—as only Simmo can deliver. Whether he’s tearing strips off a coach’s tactics or telling it straight about the state of the game, this new segment is quickly becoming a fan highlight.
