Cronulla produced a powerful performance to end the campaign of Minor Premiers Canberra with back rower Billy Burns (34:32) scoring an all-important try. It's been quite the season for a player who was released from the Dragons and wasn't sure if he would keep playing. Now he's in a Preliminary final which, as he told Quentin Hull and the team, is a shock because he could scarcely believe he was playing finals while he was on the field in the Elimination Final against the Roosters. Meanwhile incoming Newcastle coach Justin Holbrook (1:20:07) explained what appealed to him about the Newcastle job, why he's pleased to have Dylan Brown on a 10 year contract and his preliminary chats with Kalyn Ponga. Plus John Gibbs chats to Bulldogs legend Chris Anderson (2:10:56) about his team's 1995 Grand Final win and you can hear Six Again (10:42) and First Thought (44:30).  And Ruan Sims (3:00:56) announces the winner of this years...Ruan Sims Medal.

New Knights coach Justin Holbrook says he's looking forward to working with superstar captain Kalyn Ponga next year after meeting with him for the first time on Friday.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After copping weeks of brutal Match Review Committee decisions that left Dylan Brown, Ryley Smith, Will Penisini and Kelma Tuilagi sidelined for a collective 9 games, the MRC has found a way to outdo itself after slapping Izack Tago with an embarrassingly weak 1 game suspension for a hip drop tackle that has rubbed Kitione Kautoga out for 8 weeks. It is a damning indictment on both the post-game process and the match officials as the wild inequities of the NRL rise to the surface.

AJ and Rhys are back to have a look at the shortened Round 12 of the NRL season.It's been a crazy week; the boys look at all the carnage at Belmore with Lachlan Galvin arriving as Reed Mahoney and Toby Sexton look set to go out the door. We decide what the go is at the Bulldogs moving forward amid the off field signing chaos.The Dogs, albeit depleted struggled on Thursday night against the Dolphins. Isaiya Katoa and Francis Molo continue their strong run form as the Dogs outside of Josh Curran and a couple others. Friday night saw the Eels led by Dean Hawkins, Junior Paulo and Jack Williams destroy a pretty lethargic Manly side with AJ ripping into Luke Brooks' ambitions to partner Jamal Fogarty in the halves. Saturday saw the Knights beat an opposition, they are familiar with, a reserve grade Panthers side as Fletcher Sharpe begins the drum beating around Kalyn Ponga's future, along with Dylan Lucas starring. Saturday's last game saw the Roosters prove way too strong for the Sharks. After AJ gets his gloating out of the way, Rhys calms him down with a scathing assessment of the Cronulla win as the Roosters young core delivers another titanic upset in 2025. The match of the round in Auckland lived up to expectations, Canberra winning a brutal struggle against the Warriors who once again switched off in the second half. We assess the battle of the forwards and the strong performance of Savelio Tamale. We then switch gears to State of Origin as the boys draw their allegiances to preview the opener from Suncorp.
