Episode 43 | "A round of upsets and flipped scripts"

What a round to kickstart the NRL, no wonder why they call this the greatest game of all! The panel dissect the script-flipping Round 1 of the NRL, before heading ‘Around The Grounds’ to talk NRLW, Super League and the return of both NSW & QLD Cups. In the ‘Bunker Review’ segment, the boys discuss the role of the independent HIA bunker doctor, first thoughts of the amended 6-again rule, contract transparency for the general public, & the overhauled MRC and charge process.
