1988 - Balmain v Penrith - Peak Leichhardt
Leichhardt, packed on a Sunday afternoon with the Tigers' season on the line. Ellery Hanley on the prowl. The first recorded instance of 'Hold the phone Blocker!'. Brad Izzard re-arranging Benny Elias' torso. A runaway try scored by a public servant. Round 21 1988 was as good as it gets.

2008 - Australia v New Zealand - Landslide
The 2008 World Cup Final was played in a magnificent vortex, where form, history, reputation, and all sense disappeared.

1996 - Sydney City v Brisbane - Entertainment
July 1996 saw the glorious return of Monday Night Football, featuring fireworks, 250 people playing Smoke on the Water, Darren Junee's miracle try, and Adrian Lam's stomach trouble. But would it be enough to out-rate The Nanny?

Bad episodes are just NOT their go
They may not be the best rugby league podcast out there but, If they were picked, they wouldn’t let anybody down.
Non fans of Graham Appo need not listen.
Must listen
Unreal content guys - keep up the good work. Only criticism is that there needs to be more!
Panthers baby
Just getting through 1991 Major Semi. Pretty good discussion of the game. Looking forward to the next instalment and catching up on back issues.
How bout Panthers V Broncos 1990 Major Preliminarily Semi Final or whatever they called it back then?
