This week’s family ep fires up straight out of the gates — from “Who stinks?” to Cooper’s fitness regime that still hasn’t kicked in. We get tales of Trish’s infamous Thai green curry (and the ring of fire aftermath), Matthew’s emotional trip to the Chinese grocers, and Matty’s obsession with watches. Jack cops it, Chambers gets a run, and somehow we end up with Shaun the Sheep.

The boys break down a huge weekend of footy with a spotlight on the Raiders v Broncos clash — and that blistering 15-minute masterclass from Reece Walsh that might go down as one of the greatest bursts we’ve ever seen.
From Walsh’s brilliance to the fallout — will he or Carrigan face suspension? We also roll through the rest of the weekend’s blockbusters: Sharks v Roosters, Panthers v Warriors, and Storm v Bulldogs. And of course, it’s Backfence Player time — four times over!

The boys are joined by Storm halfback Jahrome Hughes for a cracking chat. From fatherhood and being “boyfriend material,” to life alongside Munster & Paps and Bellamy’s 600th, Hughesy opens up on injuries, teammates, and Storm’s finals push. He reflects on the 2024 Grand Final loss, perseverance through tough times, and what it means to run the show at halfback.
