    Seems like Loz just went all in on Payne Haas

    Did Laurie Daley just bet the Blues’ entire Origin series on Payne Haas and a chaotic bench rotation? In this episode we break down how NSW are trying to win Game 3 at Suncorp – from the minutes they need out of Haas, Fonua‑Blake and Murray to the way Teddy, Moses and the backfield have to change if the attack is going to work.

    Why the Raiders’ Attack Looks So Lost in 2026

    Have the Canberra Raiders’ structures finally been found out? In this Footy IQ episode, Chris and Blake dig into why last year’s minor premiers have slumped into the bottom half of the ladder and what’s actually broken in their attack and defence. We look at how the loss of Jamal Fogarty has exposed the spine, why their set shapes aren’t giving young halves clear pictures, and what Blake would be drilling into the 1‑6‑7‑9 to simplify their roles. We also talk about where you “park” rookie halves defensively, how much the forwards can protect them, and whether this is a dip before another push or a sign the window has closed.

    What the Origin 2 Teams Tell Us About How NSW and QLD Want to Play

    The Origin Game 2 team lists have finally dropped, and both coaches have swung some big selection calls. In this episode, we give our honest reactions to the Blues and Maroons squads – who deserved their jersey, who’s been a bit lucky, and what these line‑ups tell us about the game plans for the MCG. We break down the spines, forward packs and benches, and ask whether these combinations actually fit modern Origin footy or just look good on paper.

    NSW’s Big Call: Burton vs Strange to Cover Moses

    State of Origin I week has been flipped on its head, with NSW five‑eighth Mitchell Moses in doubt after pulling up with hamstring tightness at training and Matt Burton called into Blues camp as cover. Laurie Daley has already named Raiders young gun Ethan Strange in jersey 18, and if Moses can’t go on Wednesday night it leaves a massive call for the Blues: do you trust Burton’s experience and left foot, or roll the dice on Strange’s X‑factor?

    Are The Knights For Real Now? Plus Roosters’ Run & Maroons Chat

    NRL Round 10 delivered a genuine Knights statement, a steady Roosters machine performance and a few big Queensland Maroons selection questions – so we’re breaking it all down on Footy IQ. Newcastle smashed the Dragons 44–10, with Greg Marzhew crossing for five tries and Kalyn Ponga steering a left edge that looked absolutely untouchable. We dig into how Justin Holbrook has transformed the Knights’ attack and whether this is officially a “from spoon to September” season. Then we swing to Gosford, where James Tedesco’s double helped the Sydney Roosters grind past the Titans 28–12 for their sixth straight win – not always pretty, but very much a top‑four type victory. Finally, we zoom out to Queensland’s Origin picture: who’s locked in, who’s pushing their way into Billy Slater’s plans, and which Round 10 performances actually move the needle for the Maroons
