| Behind The Fairytale | Yarrawarrah Tigers' 2026 A Grade Premiers | Chad Townsend Plays Park Footy | 19 sept. 2026 | 01:21:18 | |
You've seen the story across my YouTube channel where I have documented the journey, it's now time to get the men who made it happen on the podcast to go over our fairytale season. (Going on podcasts isn't something they regularly do lol 😂) This is the story of the 2026 Yarrawarrah Tigers A Grade season.For the first time in the club's history, Yarrawarrah Tigers fielded an Open Men's A Grade rugby league team — and I was lucky enough to be part of it. After 15 years playing professional rugby league and retiring from the NRL, I came back home to Yarrawarrah to play local footy with some of my best mates and give back to the club and the grassroots game that gave me so much growing up.In this episode, I sit down with four of those mates to look back on the season — the decision to play, the highs and lows, the games, the friendships, the characters, the challenges of starting a new A Grade team and what it meant to pull on the Tigers jersey. This was about giving back to our junior club that gave us the opportunity to fall in love with the game. It was about mates, family, community, the club we grew up around and giving something back to grassroots rugby league.We talk honestly about everything that happened throughout the season and what it meant to be part of Yarrawarrah Tigers history. The first-ever Yarrawarrah Tigers Open Men's A Grade team.

| Who Can Win it From Here? Sam Walker Injury + Jett Cleary STARS | Round 26 NRL Review | 31 août 2026 | 01:09:12 | |
Welcome back to the podcast. NRL ROUND 26 IS DONE — AND THE FINALS PICTURE HAS NEVER BEEN MORE INTERESTING! I break down the biggest performances, controversies, injuries and storylines as we head into the final round of the regular season. And there is plenty to talk about. The Roosters' premiership hopes have taken a huge hit with Sam Walker suffering a serious ankle injury in their loss to the Dolphins. Can the Roosters still win the competition without their star halfback? Meanwhile, Jett Cleary made an incredible NRL debut for the Warriors, producing three try assists as the Warriors returned to the top of the ladder. We also break down: - Panthers return to No.1 — are Penrith hitting their best e right time? - Bulldogs MISS THE FINALS — what went wrong for Canterbury? - Sharks smashed by the Eels — are Cronulla genuine premiership contenbers? - Dolphins stun the Roosters — are the Dolphins the team nobody wants to play? - Warriors beat the Knights — can Andrew Webster's side win the premiership? - Rabbitohs make the finals — how far can South Sydney go? - Broncos collapse continues — where did it all go wrong in Brisbane? - Storm smash the Broncos — are Melbourne the best team to miss the finals? - Manly destroy the Dragons — too little, too late? - Cowboys secure their finals spot — can North Queensland cause an upset in September? Jacob Saifiti SENT OFF — what does his suspension mean for Newcastle's finals campaign? Plus the biggest player performances, coaching questions, injuries, finals combinations and my biggest takes from Round 26. One of the craziest stats from the round: both teams from last year's Grand Final — Brisbane and Melbourne — will miss the 2026 finals. It is the first time since 2010 that both previous Grand Finalists have failed to make the finals.
