Brandon Smith has not yet played NRL in 2025, as he continues to struggle with a knee injury.

However, when he does make his return, it will not be at the Roosters, instead, Smith will join the South Sydney Rabbitohs earlier than expected. 

Brandon Smith told Peter Psaltis on Wide World of Sports, "I'm a boy who had a dream and I've been able to live it out. But, there's still things I want to be able to achieve, and still the things I want to be able to do in this game."

"I'm looking forward to that process to probably be at the South Sydney Rabbitohs, very soon. It's no secret anymore."

"I want to win another premiership and with the Rabbitohs, [they were] my favourite team growing up," Smith continued.

The North Queensland Cowboys have had a rocky start to 2025, sitting 9th on the NRL ladder. 

However, the Cowboys remain confident, with more than half the season left. 

Cowboy Coen Hess told Peter Psaltis on Wide World of Sports, "We still have the monkey on our back there for the first three weeks, but it was good."

"The boys really dug deep, obviously trained the house down, and then it finally prevailed out on the field. And we're good enough to get four wins there."

"We had a little hiccup at Magic Round, but, no better way to bounce back than here Saturday against Penrith," Hess continued.

Michael Valkanis has been appointed the head coach of the Brisbane Roar after parting ways with Ruben Zadkovich. 

The Roar has struggled in recent years, with game attendance at an all-time low. 

Former football player and Stan commentator, Mark Bosnich, told Peter Psaltis on Wide World of Sports, "The fact that the local league is not getting the crowds that it deserves points to some massive structural problem into why aren't all these kids who participate in football, who watch the European game, watch the games, were talking about why aren't they attending local games?"

"And that's something that's very structural," Mr Bosnich continued.
