(01:40) Bulldogs issues 
(08:45) Origin selection headaches
(36:40) Ask Gus
(46:00) Round preview and predictions

Phil Gould opens up on the Bulldogs’ rough month, explains where confidence has dropped away, how injuries have hurt the side, and why the pressure of playing for a club like Canterbury can quickly overwhelm younger players when results turn south.

Gus breaks down why the Bulldogs’ defence-first DNA is being tested in today’s NRL and why simply defending your way to wins is no longer enough.

Plus, a State of Origin debate. Did Laurie Daley get it wrong dropping Dylan Edwards for James Tedesco? Was Reece Walsh unlucky to miss out? And is the Cameron Munster and Sam Walker halves combination a gamble that could define the series?

We finish with trivia, and a full NRL preview.

Six Tackles with Gus State of Origin Game 1 live podcast show is happening at The Locker Room from 2pm before kick off on Wednesday 27th of May. If you want to come along send us your best Ask Gus Question to sixtackles@nine.com.au It’s all thanks to TAB.
