Australia's Test series against South Africa is just around the corner, so Menners and Damian Watson get stuck into the rivalry, the state of Australia's white-ball cricket and, inevitably, the ghosts of Sandpapergate. Australia has already lost the ODI series, raising questions about the middle order, Pat Cummins' captaincy and who can fill the Glenn Maxwell-shaped gaps in the side. Jack Edwards' breakout performance and Sam Harper's push for Test selection also get plenty of attention. There's also plenty happening off the field, with Cricket Australia chairman Mike Baird stepping down amid the ongoing Big Bash privatisation saga, while the boys discuss the future of the BBL and whether fans are at risk of losing the identity of their teams. And then it's back to 2018. Menners reflects on covering Sandpapergate at the time, the toxic atmosphere surrounding that South Africa series, Steve Smith's emotional press conference and how the scandal changed Australian cricket forever.

Australia are 1–0 down to South Africa after a disappointing ODI in Durban, with plenty to discuss around the middle order, Jack Edwards' debut, Cooper Connolly's form and who should be batting at No. 3. Menners also looks back at Australia's unbeaten Zimbabwe series, the One-Day Cup getting underway, Australia A's tour of India, Mark Wood's international retirement and the latest Gabba pitch news.

The boys look ahead to the 2027 World Cup and debate whether Australia's current batting lineup has enough power in the lower order. They also discuss Travis Head's warning about the potential hostility awaiting Australia in South Africa, Mitchell Starc reaching No.1 in the Test bowling rankings, and Nick Maddinson's appointment as NSW Sheffield Shield captain.

Marnus Labuschagne has been picked again — and Menners is not impressed. This week, Menners breaks down Australia's Test squad for the South Africa tour, questions Marnus' continued selection and asks whether the selectors are doing more harm than good. He also looks at the inclusion of Cooper Connolly and Matt Kuhnemann, and whether Australia is doing enough to future-proof its Test attack.  Then it's back to the increasingly chaotic saga of Big Bash privatisation, with Cricket Australia pushing ahead despite disagreement among the states and players. Menners looks at Cricket Victoria's role, the proposed sale of the Renegades, the potential impact on grassroots cricket and why he thinks Australian cricket's governance has gone badly wrong.  And finally, it's another chapter in the never-ending Jonny Bairstow stumping saga.

The pressure's on for the Warriors ahead of the NRL finals, but they managed to make history last night. The 31-30 win over the Manly Sea Eagles at Mt Smart ensures they've recorded the club's most-ever wins in an NRL regular season. Warriors assistant coach Richard Agar joined Piney to discuss. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Warriors are in a rare position. They're sitting atop the NRL ladder, points differential putting them just ahead of the Panthers, and have a solid shot at the minor premiership. They face the Manly Sea Eagles this afternoon, and a big win will go a long way to helping them secure the title they haven't won since 2002. Former Warrior Clinton Toopi told Piney it's exciting to see 'consistency' and 'Warriors' used in the same conversation. He says it's a beautiful thing and something to be proud of, and even in his era they probably didn't have the same consistency this current team has been able to produce.

Australia wrapped up the Bangladesh series with a dominant innings-and-51-run victory in Mackay, but the two-day Test leaves plenty to discuss. Menners questions the quality of Australian pitches after another Test finished inside six sessions, while also assessing Australia's unresolved batting problems heading into South Africa. Mitchell Starc was the star with 10 wickets, Cameron Green continued to strengthen his case at No. 5, and Nathan Lyon bounced back with three wickets. Menners also looks at Shoriful Islam's outstanding 7-48, Bangladesh's historic series win in Darwin, and what Australia should do with its batting order for the South Africa tour.

What a day in Mackay! An extraordinary 18 wickets fell on the opening day of the second Test, with Mitchell Starc producing a devastating spell of 6-12 as Bangladesh were bowled out for just 64. But Australia couldn't capitalise. After getting themselves into a dominant position, the batting order collapsed yet again, with Shoriful Islam taking 6-35 and Australia stumbling to 8-165 at stumps. Cameron Green's unbeaten 51 and Steve Smith's 42 have given Australia a lead of 101, but Bangladesh have fought their way back into the contest. Menners looks at Starc's incredible performance, the concerns around Australia's batting, another failure for Marnus Labuschagne, Bo Webster's place in the side, the spicy Mackay pitch and whether Australia have left the door open for Bangladesh to turn this into a much closer Test.

Australia are reeling from their stunning nine-wicket defeat to Bangladesh in Darwin, but is it really the worst loss in Test history? Menners breaks down the fallout from the defeat, the pressure on Marnus Labuschagne and Jake Weatherald, and the selection questions facing Australia ahead of the second Test in Mackay. He also discusses Pat Cummins' frustration with the top order, Nathan Lyon's future, the need to regenerate the Australian side and whether Cooper Connolly could be part of the next generation. Plus, a look at why Bangladesh deserve more respect and a final word on Stuart Broad's failed Logies campaign.

Bangladesh have produced one of the biggest upsets in Australian Test cricket history, defeating Australia by nine wickets in Darwin to take a 1-0 series lead. Menners reflects on Bangladesh's remarkable performance, Mahedi Hasan's five-wicket haul and Hassan Mahmud's nine wickets, while Cameron Green's century provides Australia's only real positive from a disastrous Test. The big question now is what happens to Australia's top order. Should Jake Weatherald and Marnus Labuschagne be dropped? Is it time for Matt Renshaw to return? And does Nathan Lyon deserve to retain his place? Menners also asks whether this defeat is simply a shock one-off — or the beginning of a major turning point for an ageing Australian side.

Bangladesh have dominated all three days of the first Test in Darwin and are now just six wickets away from a famous victory over Australia. Menners reviews a remarkable day of Test cricket, as Bangladesh extended their first-innings lead to 228 before Australia finished on 4-161, still trailing by 67 runs. Josh Hazlewood claimed his 300th Test wicket and finished with 6-89, while Bangladesh showed remarkable patience with the bat, led by centuries from Tanzid Hasan and valuable contributions from Shanto and Mehedi Hasan. Australia's top-order problems continued, with Jake Weatherald, Travis Head and Marnus Labuschagne all failing, leaving Cameron Green and Alex Carey to give Australia a glimmer of hope heading into Day 4.

Bangladesh produced a stunning day of Test cricket in Darwin, reaching 6-351 at stumps and taking a 153-run lead over Australia. Menners breaks down how Bangladesh's patience, partnerships and disciplined batting put Australia firmly on the back foot, led by Tanzid Hasan's superb maiden Test century. The episode examines Pat Cummins' decision to bat first, Australia's struggles with the ball, Nathan Lyon's expensive spell, and Cameron Green's costly dropped catch from the final ball. Menners also looks ahead to the potential repercussions if Australia suffers a historic home defeat, including whether changes to the batting lineup could be on the way.

Bangladesh have stunned Australia on the opening day in Darwin, and Menners isn't holding back after one of Australia's worst days of Test cricket in recent memory. Australia were bowled out for 198 before Bangladesh finished the day firmly in control. Menners breaks down the batting collapse, questions some major decisions from the Australian camp and asks whether several players are now facing a much bigger problem than just one bad innings. There's also a big call on Marnus Labuschagne, questions about whether Australia's excuses around batting in Shield cricket really stack up, and plenty to discuss around the proposed changes to Sheffield Shield sessions. Plus, Menners weighs in on the latest developments involving Ash Gardner and the conflict-of-interest questions surrounding Australian women's cricket.

This week on Menners Masterclass, we revisit one of my all-time favourite interviews — a classic conversation with Shane Watson, originally recorded in 2022. Watson reflects on a remarkable career that spanned multiple eras of cricket, from the dominance of Australia's golden generation through to the rise of T20 leagues and the IPL. He opens up on the challenges that shaped him — injuries, pressure, and the mental battles that impacted his consistency — while also sharing the lessons that allowed him to thrive later in his career. A major theme throughout is mindset. Watson candidly explains how not understanding mental skills early on held him back, and how learning to manage mental energy and “get out of his own way” unlocked his best performances toward the end of his career. Along the way, he shares stories from Ashes campaigns, World Cup wins, and the intensity of franchise cricket, as well as advice for the next generation navigating modern pressures like social media. A thoughtful, honest, and insightful conversation — and a standout episode from the archive.
