Billy Slater and Peter Psaltis return for the 2026 season of The Billy Slater Podcast just days out from the NRL season opener.

Billy reflects on an emotional return to his hometown of Innisfail, where he put the boots back on for the International Legends of League to give back to the community that shaped his career.

Billy delves deep into the major State of Origin eligibility overhaul announced by the ARLC, discussing what the modernisation of the rules means for the future of the series.

Billy also looks back at the recent Maroons squad get-together and provides his early assessment of key players heading into the new year.
