With the first game of State of Origin five weeks away, team selections are already a hot topic. With Reece Walsh's injury, Kalyn Ponga is expected to take the fullback position, but now the spotlight turns to Tom Dearden and Daly Cherry-Evans. Jonathan Thurston told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "If Munster and DCE are fit, then I expect Tommy Dearden to be...he could be on the bench, he could certainly be 18th man as well." "Our strongest side at the moment it's, definitely a DCE and Cameron Munster in the halves." "But there's still five weeks to go before that comes around, so a lot can happen in five weeks," JT continued. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Brisbane Lions have carried their strong form from 2024 into the 2025 season with wins in the first five rounds. The Lions face the Collingwood Magpies at the Gabba on Thursday night, aiming to keep their winning streak alive. Brisbane Lions and AFL legend Leigh Matthews told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "I think you'd be confident that when they're on and playing at their best. I think that's the top level in the game at the moment." "They've had an unusual situation where [in] four of the five games, they've been sort of well behind at half time and then really came home hard in the second half." "So that's been a bit of a vulnerability. But certainly they've been coming home strong here," Mr Matthews continued. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Wests Tigers announced that Lachlan Galvin would not be with the club beyond 2026. Today, the club dropped Lachlan Galvin from their NRL squad, with the teen set to play in the NSW Cup. The decision to drop Galvin has been led by senior players, Jarome Luai and Api Koroisau. Member of the Continuous Call Team, Jamie Soward, told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "I think that Benji [Marshall] would have to make a decision based on what their team needs best." "A young man has made a decision so far out to say that he doesn't want to play or doesn't see a future at the club, with these players and with the coach. I had no doubt that it was going to end in tears," Soward continued. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With the first game of State of Origin six weeks away, team selections are already a hot topic. The debate regarding Queensland's fullback has begun, with Kalyn Ponga and Reece Walsh emerging as the frontrunners. Canberra Raider, Queensland Maroon, and Kanagraoo, Gary Belcher told Jason Matthews, "It really depends on the make up I think you've got to have Kalyn Ponga somewhere there." "I think Reece Reece Walsh is a little bit off at the moment, but there's still some time to go before Origin. If he strings a few of his best games together, he's got to be in the mix." "Kalyn Ponga [has] probably got his nose in front for mine at the moment," Mr Belcher continues.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Broncos star Payne Haas has confirmed that he is weighing up a switch in his representative football allegiance from Australia to Samoa. The switch would not impact his Blues position, as Samoa is considered a tier-two nation. NRL legend Scott Prince told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "He wants to represent his family and heritage, and to do that while his grandparents are still around, they can enjoy his football." "But more importantly, the fact that he can just sort of lead for his people and just show that you don't have to play for Australia, you can be proud of being Samoan." "It's not about the money. It's about representing his culture, his people, and more importantly, representing his family," Prince continued. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Broncos begin the 2025 season on Thursday against the Roosters, but Ezra Mam will not return to the field until Round 10. Broncos halfback, Adam Reynolds, told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "We get to spend a bit more time in the car, general conversation, all those sort of things." "He's a young man, made a mistake, he's put his hand up and owned it." "He's my halves partner as well, so to spend more time, get that connection a bit stronger and create that friendship, that a bit of a deeper level, it goes a long way into being a better person and obviously a football player," Reynolds continued.

Max Plath has secured a one-year contract extension with the Dolphins through 2026, as the team prepares to embark on a new chapter under coach Kristian Woolf after the departure of Wayne Bennett. Plath told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "They're very different, from a players perspective." "The system and what we play and the club, the way it's run hasn't changed because Wolfie had a big role while Wayne was there too." "The voice is very similar and everything is very similar to how it was, but obviously the personality of Wayne, it can't be replaced," Plath continued.

The Brisbane Broncos are three weeks away from their first pre-season game, and first under Michael Maguire. Brisbane Bronco Cory Paix told Jason Matthews on Wide World of Sports, "This has certainly gone down as one of the most challenging [pre-seasons] ones, I've been a part of." "Madge coming to the club it's a clean slate for, personally for myself, and a clean slate for the other players who didn't get a look in last year." "No spot is guaranteed within the side at the moment, and everyone's just on the train, pushing hard to find themselves in the 17 each week," Paix continued.
