Slashing Through the Cordon

Welcome back to the podcast where research and knowledge are secondary to the ramblings of an old man and the occasional appearance of his teenage son.

Flying solo again this week, we take a look at Round 26 of ther 2024 NRL season, arguably the greatest round of rugby league ever played. Shocks, surprises, and almost every game entertaining for one reason or another. We also see how that has impacted on the table as we approach the final round of the preliminary season.

The AFL have had their week off, losing all momentum in the process, but the finals start this weekend, and we run the rule over the chances of all 8 teams in attendance.

In order to keep things fresh around here, there is a slight format change for the podcast, involving less detailed research into the sports events of the week, and more of a catch up conversation which is allowed to go in whatever direction it takes.

As a result, today's episode not only includes a discussion on the recently completed Olympic Games from Paris, NRL and AFL devastating results on the same night at the same time, cricket from around the globe and on the home front, but also a discussion on shark movies, music and podcast dissection, and even the planning for retirement. Something for everyone.

With both members back on board today, saddle up as Josh and Bill take a look at the state of play in the NRL and AFL with finals just around the corner.

The NRL has five rounds to go, and the AFL just three rounds until the finals arrive. Today we take a look at the ladders, and discuss the way the clubs have performed to this point of the season. We discuss the averageness of the teams who are already ruled out of finals contention, the fight for the clubs who are still trying to confirm a finals place, and then look at the state of affairs nearer the top of the ladder. The conclusion comes to pass that one code is definitely a superior quality than the other.

On this week's episode, a Josh-less podcast talks about the initial viewings of the Paris Olympics and goes about discussing three main points. Firstly the way that the TV coverage of the Olympics has changed and also how it has remained the same, and we look at the good and the awful of what has been produced so far. Secondly we discuss a number of the sports and so-called sports that are being held at this Olympics, and whether or not they are appropriate or necessary at the largest sporting event in the world. And thirdly, we talk about the United States and their absolute requirement of being seen as the world's superpower in sport, and how they will manipulate a medal tally to ensure that they are always in front.
