About this episode
James Graham is joined by Charlie White to review all the action from the penultimate round in the 2025 NRL season. On the show, the boys admit they were wrong about the Canberra Raiders, we continue the big debate around resting players and whether it hurts the integrity of the game. Plus, we unpack the Eels upset over the Warriors, the Roosters’ 40 unanswered points against the Storm and why the NRL must do everything to keep Mark Nawaqanitawase in the code!
