One of the great weekends of the Rugby League calendar is finally here … NRL MAGIC ROUND! We kick off with a preview of the CAST Cup battle between the Rabbitohs and Cowboys with both desperate to snap their 5-game losing streaks. We also cover the latest headlines, including Ricky Stuart's contract extension with the Raiders, Jack Wighton's surprising Origin snub, and Nathan Cleary's 8-week absence due to a hamstring injury, along with his potential replacements for the NSW Blues.

We'll break down all the Magic Round fixtures with stats, analysis and personal tips. As always, we run through our Tryscorer Tryfecta and Fill Up The Fridge predictions for the week and wrap up the episode by answering a record number of listener questions. See you at Magic Round!
