As the Warriors prepare for their 30th Anniversary match with the Brisbane Broncos, the news that nobody wanted to hear: co-captain James Fisher-Harris will be sidelined for between 4 and 6 weeks with a pectoral injury. Blairy & Goran discuss how his absence will be felt, and the leadership void in general given he joins RTS, DWZ and CNK as 'unavailables'.
However, in some good news, Te Maire Martin is BACK via the bench! While Goran looks forward to how he can influence the game, Blairy has a unique perspective on what Coach Webster will do with him!
And with the Lachlan Galvin story exploding across the ditch, we spare a thought for Benji Marshall and how he negotiates yet another difficult period in his short head coaching career in the NRL.

After a decade of torment, Blairy & Goran attempt to plot a course to victory for the NZ Warriors against the mighty Melbourne Storm! Blairy talks about his experiences in this fixture, having played for both sides, and how Tawera Nikau was a big factor in building him up for matches AGAINST the Warriors when he played for Melbourne. We discuss the head to head battle of the 9s - Wayde Egan versus Harry Grant - a match up we may see again in the Origin arena, the importance of winning the battle in the middle where JFH and Mitch Barnett will lead the way, and ask whether Eliesa Katoa will be at the Melbourne Storm for the rest of his playing days - given his incredible performances under Craig Bellamy. Goran has another crack at the Betcha This Happens multi, Blairy threatens to come out of retirement, and there's a debut for Newcastle's Tyrone Thompson in the latest episode of League Of Our Own!

Blairy & Goran navigate the minefield that is April Fool's Day pranks and realise that the rumours about Te Maire and Charnze have some validity. Where are they potentially going, and how much would the NZ Warriors miss them? Also, HOLY HECKA Leka Halasima!! Following a star turn against the Tigers, we wonder what his positional future holds. Is Leka a prop, a backrower, a wing, even a 6?! Other questions include: Is Wayde Egan destined for Origin in 2025? What's Benji Marshall on about? And will we ever nail the Betcha This Happens multi??

The NZ Warriors have been rocked by a hamstring injury to Roger Tuivasa-Sheck, but that's been offset slightly with the return of 'The Real Big Dog' Rocco Berry. Awesome timing - given the relationship between canines and felines - with Benji Marshall's Wests Tigers the next opponent of the Wahs. Blairy & Goran talk about the threats of a rejuvenated Tigers outfit, the impressive performance of CNK vs Roosters, and try (once again) with an impossible multi in Betcha This Happens for Round 4!

Once again, the drums are beating for Kalyn Ponga to represent the Kiwis, so it's all very convenient having Blairy at the Newcastle Knights for this episode! What's it going to take to get the '23 Dally M Medal winner in black and white? Elsewhere, Brandon Smith is close to signing with the Rabbitohs, Nelson Asofa-Solomona returns from suspension for the Grand Final rematch: STORM v PANTHERS! But on a Thursday night? C'mon! And we'll talk Dylan Brown some more as well.

Goran's worst fears became reality this week when Dylan Brown decided to leave his Parramatta Eels and take up the richest contract in NRL history by joining Blairy's Newcastle Knights from 2026. The boys discuss everything about the move - how the Eels recover, what it means for Dylan's footy and financial future, and whether he can actually play halfback?
Blairy & Goran also chat about the Warriors vs Sea Eagles, where Andrew Webster has named an unchanged side.

And with one game against the Canberra Raiders under the bright Las Vegas lights, the NZ Warriors turn us all into Worriers! What went wrong, who was to blame - maybe CANBERRA were just too good? How does Andrew Webster address the issues before a very fit Jazz Tevaga turns up with his Manly men in Round Two? All of this and more, plus the fallout from a shocking first-up effort in Goran’s Vegas multi.

It's time for the 2nd Season of League Of Our Own! Blairy has moved across the ditch to take up a job at the Newcastle Knights, but that won't stop us from talking the great game of rugby league from a Kiwi perspective. We talk the war of words between he and Ricky Stuart, fighting our best mates ala Hudson Young and Morgan Smithies, RTS is FINALLY out of the centre position, and Goran has a warning for Blairy: HANDS OFF Dylan Brown!

Adam and Goran may not have picked them to win, but when the finals roll around, the Panthers always pounce. Like Goran, you might have burning questions about this year's NRL season, and we’re here to tackle them, dishing some players more heat than others. If you’re feeling a bit worn down, spare a thought for the injured players heading into surgery in the coming weeks, as well as those jumping straight into the Pacific Championships later this month. Thanks to everyone who’s tuned in throughout the season. It might not have been our year, but here’s hoping that whichever team you support, next year will be yours.
