    Well couch commentators there's many reasons why this was the lost weekend for us. We had a Bucks Party, so there was some lost time there.

There's some Supercoach chat, spoiler alert, Greg lost. There was a lot to distract us in Distractions, and a chunky Other Sports segment with plenty happening in the wide world of sport.

  • Episode 31: Heart Breakers & Kingmakers

    Welcome back couch commentators. This week has seen some injury heartbreakers, with Turbo going down and a few other teams having some drama as well, we give you our thoughts on that. We throw up our view on some potential kingmakers, like the Kings of the North, the Cowboys, and dare I say it, our mighty Brisbane Broncos.
