We review the first week of the 2023 NRL finals including our heavy defeat to the Panthers in Penrith.
Luckily we live to fight another day and we look ahead to our blockbuster clash with the in form Knights at fortress Mt Smart! A huge crowd awaits what will no doubt be a heart-stopping encounter to see who plays the rampaging Broncos in the preliminary final!
Hammer has just visited the dentist today and pulled up a bit like SJ last week so Roo is joined by our good mate and special co-host Brad Inger!

Taine into halfs where he hasn't played all season if SJ ruled out ?? – are you guys serious or just messing about as this is a must win semi final not a trial game.
Volkman must be wondering what is going on.He is our second best half back and actually has a good kicking game.Hopefully he has been given good reasons for his exclusion and is happy to bide his time.I know it is different level but Volks has been one of if not the best half back in NSW cup with some outstanding games (eg Roosters clash in torrential rain) -his stats for the season are excellent ( 27 try assists/7832 kick meters/3 field goals/189 points = ALL top of cup table)
Volkman is still young and raw but has massive upside.He is not a "maybe" or "fill in" type many on these poddies for some reason like portray him as.
