Show Notes
ROUND 26 IS HERE — AND THE FINALS RACE IS HEATING UP!
I am joined by Josh Morris to tip every game of Round 26 of the NRL! With just two rounds remaining before the finals, every game has massive consequences — from the race for the minor premiership to the battle for the Top 8. Can we get our tips right?
ROUND 26 TIPS We go through every game, including: - Broncos v Storm - Sea Eagles v Dragons - Warriors v Rabbitohs - Roosters v Dolphins - Panthers v Bulldogs - Tigers v Cowboys - Eels v Sharks - Titans v Knights
We debate the big matchups, form, team selections, injuries, finals implications, potential upsets and who we think will win every game.
And with the finals picture changing every week, we ask the biggest questions heading into Round 26: - Who finishes as minor premiers? - Who is the biggest threat heading into September? - Can the Bulldogs keep their finals hopes alive? - Can the Dolphins cement themselves as a genuine premiership contender? - Can the Panthers keep their Top 2 push alive? - What happens with the Roosters and James Tedesco? - Latrell Mitchell is back — can Souths cause an upset?
Plus plenty of Josh Morris vs Chad Townsend tipping banter and some big calls that could age very well… or very badly!
