A sombre panel for our immediate reaction to the QLD Maroons victory over the NSW Blues to take a 1-0 lead in the State of Origin series. Massive talking point as Joseph Suaali’i gets sent off in the 8th minute of the game with much conjecture surrounding the decision at this level. The boys discuss which players stepped up and which ones faltered as things heat-up surrounding what needs to change for each team in Game 2, with Suaali’i the centre of attention in this argument. The lads also go in on the poor Fox Sports ratings for QLD and NSW before previewing the historic sold-out Women’s SOO match on Thursday night, reviewing Round 13 of the NRL and Super League, before announcing a new partnership for “Around the Grounds” where Tass reveals the future of test and international rugby league and the changes to future World Cups. Episode dedicated to the memory of Rob Burrow.
