Breaking! Origin selection shocks

'FIRST WALTERS, NOW MAGUIRE’: Broncos players have more power than the coach | Round 26 review

Cronulla's finals hopes are in freefall after a shock 38-18 loss to Parramatta, and we ask whether the Sharks are simply choking again or something deeper is going on, including a heated post-match spray from coach Craig Fitzgibbon. We also dig into Nicho Hynes' form, the Roosters' title chances after Sam Walker's serious ankle injury, and whether Daly Cherry-Evans can inspire another finals run 15 years after his first premiership. Plus: is Michael Maguire still the right man to lead the Broncos, can Souths make history from outside the top four with Latrell Mitchell back, why the Dolphins deserve to be taken seriously as genuine contenders, Jett Cleary's standout NRL debut for the Warriors, and the Brisbane ground announcer controversy that's landed the club in hot water with the NRL.
