  Episode 15 - It's All Over Now, Baby Blue

  Jul 1, 20261h 4mS1

  The 2026 State of Origin series reaches its conclusion as we break down the teams selected for the decider and discuss the key match-ups that could decide who lifts the shield. Has either coach made a masterstroke, or are there still some big selection questions to answer? We wrap up another massive weekend across the NRL, analysing every result, the biggest talking points, and what it all means as the race to the finals continues. The Northern Pride continue to rewrite the record books, but perhaps not in the way they'd hoped, recording an incredible fifth draw of the season. We ask just how unusual that is and what it means for their finals hopes. Around the grounds, we've got all the latest results from the QRL, FNQRL, AFL, and AFL Cairns, keeping you across everything happening both nationally and here in Far North Queensland. Plus, Trenno joins us live from Oak Park for the 122nd Annual Oak Park Race Meeting—one of Queensland's most unique country racing events. He'll bring us the atmosphere, the stories, and all the colour from one of the biggest days on the North Queensland racing calendar. It's another packed edition of Winners R Grinners with plenty to discuss, plenty to debate, and a few laughs along the way. Available wherever you get your podcasts.
