The NRL news cycle refuses to rest with another week of churn and burn in the game. The Tip Sheet covers all the Parramatta and NRL action as Sixties, Forty20 and Clint lead a roundtable on the news.

This week's news podcast starts with the return Junior Paulo to the Eels' team sheet. Jack Murchie is forced out of the line-up as a result and the boys discuss the composition of the team ahead of their match against the Bulldogs.

Both the NRL and NRLW squads are far from complete as the clock ticks down and the market dries up. What are the options for the Eels in both teams? Have they left it too late?

In broader NRL news it was a devastating week for a couple of terminally unlucky players. Jayden Brailey and Adam Doueihi both suffered ACL injuries and the conversation turns to how much wear and tear can players take in these kind of scenarios.

The NRL continues its crackdown on hip drop tackles while Martin Taupau was involved in a nasty unintentional incident with Jordan Rapana. Is the code being consistent with this crackdown? Are players being coached into these tackles? The show breaks it all down.

Finally, there no undefeated teams left after 6 rounds while Anthony Griffin is on a scorching hot seat at the Dragons with his fate all but sealed. Is this the healthiest the NRL has been in a long team and did St George do both themselves and their coach a disservice by waiting so long to start to pull the pin? Is there opportunity for Parramatta to make a move and snare a player in the wake of any transitional process?
