Fun and games this week as Blairy & Goran scrape egg off their faces following last week’s Luke Metcalf prediction, and Adam leaves an important piece of his technical set-up back in Newcastle! But in all seriousness, it’s wonderful news that Metcalf has signed an extension to 2028 with the NZ Warriors, and the boys wonder if it can not only get the Wahs a Premiership, but help the pathways to produce the next big Kiwis playmaker - if you’ve got Stacey Jones, Shaun Johnson and Luke Metcalf involved at the Warriors,, imagine being a young playmaker coming through, learning from those 3?  Could be huge for the future of NZ league.It’s being reported that Eden Park will host Game Two of State of Origin in 2027.  How good?!  And also…  why not?  With NSW and QLD being made up of Samoan and Tongan internationals, and Auckland being the largest Polynesian city in the world, it makes sense, right?Sticking with Eden Park, that’s where the Kiwis face Tonga this weekend.  Blairy & Goran talk through the handful of changes, the kiwi approach, and why Big Nasty has lost his spot.  And still no Keano Kini?! 00:00  Blairy’s Rubbish Bin!
