Can State of Origin hurry up already?! Everything about the build up to State of Origin 2 is boring. No war of words and reportedly, uninspiring speeches from Blues coach Laurie Daley. The Sydney Morning Herald's Neil Breen joins Adam Hawse to lament the lack of excitement. At the end of the day, as long as the showpiece event rates, that's all that matters, which is why broadcaster want it to remain on a Wednesday night. Also, why Api Koroisau might be NSW's x-factor, and everyone is to blame for the Warriors shot clock mess.

Ashley Klein's gambling addiction is the integrity issue that continues to haunt the NRL. The Australian's Andrew Webster joins Adam Hawse to discuss how having him officiate State of Origin 2 is problematic. Also, how was the Warriors shot clock calamity allowed to happen? The entertaining Dolphins are a premiership threat, the Tigers playing all home games at Leichhardt in 2028 is a nod to nostalgia, and Marky Mark's rugby return has no impact on his Origin selection. Nor should it.
