With State OF Origin (Men's) just around the corner and State OF Origin (Women's) a torrential success story this week, it somehow still feels like its' A Glittering New Year in Bat Country. Everything is topsy turvy, but somehow it all still fells the same. Is the levee gonna break?

While it was a great weekend for hookers,  it appears there is a DEARTH of fullbacks for SOO. Wingers are outmarking AFL players and pulling out unbelievable, magical tries.

There were brawls at Campbelltown, tears in Brisbane and Toxic Town was jumping.

What a week in Rugby League. 

Tune in to hear the full discussion!

A Hard Rains-A-Gonna Fall

For the final show of the year we wrap up deluxe the NRL Grand Finals, both men's and women's, starting and finishing with a deep dive inside the enigmatic Reece Martin's head, driving by the big brawl in the NRLW Final, Teddy Swims v Snoop, the Telstra wristband, a slight digression through the Sydney 2000 Olympics, Spinal Tap 2, Madge and Bellyache, and, as always, much, much more.

Including a magnificent ode to Craig Bellamy from Denis Carnahan.

Thanks to all for listening this year, and a big thanks to our Producer and Editor Mash Ferris & The Personal Best Studios for helping us get this nonsense on the air every week. See yas in 2026!

"Smokin Indo & Sippin' on Gin and Juice" with Redfern Pat

The underdog Shark’s triumph, Canberra’s lack of soul - and humour - exposed, the astonishing hypocrisy of the Roosters’ “Zero Tolerance” policy towards leaning in to look at bags of powder, the ‘unsustainable” culture at Belmore Rd, and the breathtaking Panthers….all get discussed in this week’s episode.

As usual we get a brilliant NRL parody song from Denis Carnahan and, as always, much more that we can’t discuss here. Thanks for listening.
