The Continuous Call Team Daily

Congratulations to Kalyn Ponga for winning the 2026 Golden Boot. The Sydney Morning Herald's Adrian Proszenko joins Julian King to discuss whether the Golden Boot has lost some prestige given the narrow scope of qualification. Once the World Cup ends, we fully expect player signings, especially concerning those in World Cup camps, to ramp up. Bears General manager of Football, Gareth Holmes, believes the club can accommodate Matt Burton for 2027, and Josh Addo-Carr could be a good lick up for a club in 2027.

After being cleared to return to training, Josh Addo-Carr has been told by the Eels he is free to leave the club. Michael Buettner joins Julian King to discus the Foxx's future. The Golden Boot is to be awarded prior to the Rugby League World Cup final, meaning a blinder by Walsh or Ponga will not count. The Perth Bears release their away jersey, while ramping up their recruitment drive, with Heath Mason arriving and the Matt Burton move looking imminent. Will the Dolphins go hard to retain Herbie Farnworth given the Roosters move is not yet certain? Out of Tabuai-Fidow, Farnworth and Bostock, they need to keep at leas two of them.

The World Cup finals teams have been named, so too the referees. Chris McQueen joins Julian King to look at how Adam Gee and Chris Butler were overlooked for the final in favour of Grant Atkins and Wyatt Raymond. Was this a reactionary move? Luke Keary has teed off on Sam Walker's management after his Roosters contract deal was pulled, effectively rendering him stateless. Will he regret how it played out? Souths and PNG have some signing news, and a Mana Pasifika consortium are looking to play games in Hawaii.
