It was an historic night at Suncorp as the Blues won the decider by 18 points. Laurie Daley will keep his job and Nathan Cleary shut up the 'can't do it in Origin' haters. It was one of the all-time great games - unless you're Georgie Tunny. We unpack the dubious calls and tries that maybe shouldn't have stood on a crazy night of rugby league.

Friend of the pod Sophie Molineux and the greatest team in Australian sporting history won the T20 Women's World Cup. Why aren't they getting the media coverage they deserve?

Plus, Erling Haaland keeps doing genuinely ridiculous things at the World Cup, Socceroo Awer Mabil says some truths, Wimbledon brings the drama as Sabalenka threatens to get blind drunk, and someone set a record at the Gold Coast marathon that is truly unbelievable.

A game for the ages (if you're a Blues Fan) | State of Origin Game 3 recap, World Cup shocks and Australia are T20 Women's World Cup champs

T'was the night before Origin.

It's the most special time in our lives: it's Game 3 of Origin and it's winner takes all. Origin nights at Suncorp are always crazy but this one's going to be extra special.

Queensland's most feral fan Georgie Tunny went up to the Sunshine Coast to get the lowdown from the players on how the Maroons are preparing to face a Blues side who will be fired up after a bruising loss in Game 2. Kalyn Ponga, Murray Taulagi, JoJo Fifita and Patty Carrigan talk to us about what makes Origin so special, how the celebrations really are after the game and how they plan to stop Nathan Cleary.

Plus, what's Billy Slater really like as a coach? Why are Queenslanders so much more feral than NSW fans? And how do you learn to switch off as a player at the elite level when the game is done?

We didn't know that a simple stat about Caitlin Clark, a rookie basketballer in the WNBA who outsold LeBron on jersey sales, would cause such madness on the Two Good Sports Insta page.

Caitlin has become one of the most talked-about names in sport. Her meteoric rise in just 2 years, manufactured drama and a rivalry with Angel Reese - we debate it all and discuss why she’s such a polarising figure, what her status says about the state of women’s sport, and why fans can’t seem to handle her competing with (and beating) men. Also why was she left off the 30th anniversary poster? 

Plus, Serena Williams’ Wimbledon return doesn't go to plan (but joy for our own Maya Joint), and a proper conversation on why female athletes are still being held to completely different standards.

It's about time we talked about the World Cup. The Socceroos have (arguably) defied expectations and made it through the group stage. Now we play Egypt in the first knockout round on Saturday morning. Is it winnable? 

Niav Owens thinks so, and she knows her football. The host of SBS' World Cup coverage joins us to chat our chances of progressing to the round of 16 and meeting Messi and Argentina (unless Cabo Verde pull off the biggest ever World Cup shock), why this squad is so exciting, and what the A-League does with a $30mil player when Barcelona come calling. 

Plus, Harry Kewell captured our hearts in 2006 and now he's doing it again 20 years later, how we can shut down Egyptian superstar Mo Salah, Norwegian crowd rowing vibes and World Cup knockout-round tactics.

And of course France are looking unfairly good, England haven't quite got into gear, and why everyone suddenly thinks they’re a football expert.

The only place to watch the FIFA World Cup is on SBS and SBS on Demand.
