Panthers Reign Supreme - NOT The Footy Show Episode 249

Penrith have defeated Souths 14-12 in the 2021 NRL Grand Final to claim the club's 3rd NRL Premiership, so join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 249 as they review the decider shortly after the game finished. 

Nathan Cleary is awarded the Clive Churchill Medal and his father Ivan wins his first premiership on the third attempt, as the Penrith coach goes one better with his Panthers in 2021. 

Souths are gallant and don’t get much luck but Adam Reynolds still had two chances late to send the game to extra time… meaning no farewell title for ARey or Wayne Bennett with the Rabbitohs. 

Enjoy.

It's Grand Final time! 

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 248 and our 2021 NRL Grand Final Preview as the Penrith Panthers take on the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Suncorp Stadium in Brisbane. 

Is it time for the Ivan Cleary's Panthers to deliver on two superb seasons with a Premiership or will Uncle Benny steer South Sydney to his 8th win in 10 Grand Finals and leave Redfern as a legendary Rabbitoh? 

Coxsmith and Waz go through each team in detail and pick our Winner/Score, First Tryscorer and Clive Churchill Medallist. 

We may have a supplemental GF podcast later in the week with some great Grand Final moments but that is TBC.

Apart from our picks of who makes the Grand Final, we touch on Michael Maguire surviving at the Tigers (for another 12 months of speculation) and wonder what Tim Sheens will be able to accomplish once he arrives.

Semi Finals Review - NOT The Footy Show Episode 245

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 245 as we review the Semi Final victories by Penrith and Manly in the second weekend of the 2021 NRL Finals. 

The apparent legal storing of free interchanges is the first topic we dive into, as is the failure of Parramatta to get past the Semi Final stage under Brad Arthur. And of course we break down in detail Penrith's 8-6 win over a gallant Parramatta, and Manly's 42-6 walk in the park against the sticky-taped together Roosters. The Storm and Rabbitohs now await the winners in the Prelims. 

Coxsmith and Waz finish the Podcast with a farewell to Josh Morris.

We discuss Ivan Cleary getting schooled by Wayne Bennett as Souths upset Penrith, and review Melbourne handing Manly a reality check. We also talk about how the Roosters and Eels did enough to send the Titans and Knights packing in Week 1. 

Coxsmith and Waz finish the Podcast touching on Billy Slater's apparent reluctance to jump on the QLD Origin job and Mary McGregor taking an assistant coach role with the NSW Blues. And... who wants Adam Elliott now Gus doesn't?

Madge and the Tigers - NOT The Footy Show Episode 243

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 243 as we dig into the coaching Merry-Go-Round that is the Wests Tigers... and whether or not Michael Maguire will be at the club in 2022? 

We also look at how all the new coaches who took over bad teams in 2021 went compared to their predecessors in 2020 and this comes with a lesson. Plus Paul Green gets tapped on the shoulder by QLD - time for Billiam Slater to try and pull a Freddy Fittler? 

So join Coxsmith and Waz for the another NRL Finals Podcast (yep two in a week!) as we bask the sweet sweet month of September.

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for a quick 26 minute NOT The Footy Show Episode 241 as we dive into the aftermath from the Latrell Mitchell, Trent Robinson and NRL Bunker mix-tape that was NRL Round 24. 

We ask what's next for Latrell Mitchell given his last two season's have come crashing to a halt before the Finals, what is going on at the NRL Bunker for Mitchell to somehow not be sent off and how much did Trent Robinson get right and wrong in his post-match presser. 

So join Coxsmith and Waz for what might even be the first of two doses of footy chat in a week!

NRL Season check-in at Round 24 - NOT The Footy Show Episode 240

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for a well overdue NOT The Footy Show Episode 240 as we take a deep breath and dive into the state of the NRL entering Round 24 of the 2021 Season.  

All 16 Teams will get a temperature check for their 2021 campaign with just two weeks to go until the NRL Finals and we are not kind for the most part.  

Is it down to Melbourne and Penrith for the Premiership? Yes probably... but you never know your luck in a big city like Brisbane if you are any team who falls over into the Top 8 come the pointy end of the season.  

Join Coxsmith and Waz for 90 minutes of footy chat - just the way you used to like it.

QLD v NSW Origin 2 Preview - NOT The Footy Show Episode 239

Join Robb Cox, Matthew Duncan and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 239 as we preview the pivotal second match of the 2021 State of Origin Series. 

Queensland are at home once again - mmmmmmm - but NSW can wrap up the 2021 series with a win at Suncorp Stadium in Game 2. 

We discuss all things Reece Walsh and his Origin debut, explore Gerard 'Suncorp' Sutton's record in Brisbane, talk Paul Green's future and his decisions with team selection and how he might use David Fifita especially, and we end up barely talking about the NSW Blues other than to say if they put their foot down this series is likely over... even if it is on front of next to no NSW fans for the second straight game.

NSW 50 QLD 6 Origin 1 Review - NOT The Footy Show Episode 238

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 238 as we enjoy New South Wales 50 defeating Queensland 6 in the opening game of the 2021 State of Origin Series. 

Turns out the QLD government paid $8m bucks to have their team embarrassed in Townsville as the Blues obliterated the Maroons last night. 

Plenty to discuss if you are a NSW fan, maybe less fun if you are a QLDer but we do touch on why QLD aren't dead and buried... yet.

NSW Origin 1 Team Reaction Podcast - NOT The Footy Show Episode 237

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 237 as we dissect the team NSW coach Brad Fittler picked for State of Origin Game 1. In short - us NSW boys are happy! 

We talk Townsville v Newcastle getting Origin 1 instead of Melbourne, and we also have to address the NRL's new wheel of justice when it comes to their 'high shot crackdown' as things went out the window in Round 12... Desmond was not impressed. 

We will examine the QLD Maroons Team after it is named on Monday - with a reaction podcast to be released probably on Tuesday. 

Bring on the drama of Origin week.

QLD Origin 1 Team Preview and Bob Fulton Memories Podcast - NOT The Footy Show Episode 236

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for NOT The Footy Show Episode 236 as we predict the Queensland Maroons side for State of Origin 1, unload plenty more NSW Blues Team Talk on your poor ears and reflect on our memories of the late Bob Fulton. 

We also open the show with about 10-15 minutes on why the NRL's high shots crackdown is becoming increasingly bewildering as the game clearly isn't sure if it wants to stay on this track or not... especially with Origin up next. 

Both of us had personal encounters with Bob Fulton so the Bonus Segment is well worth a listen this week in the final 20 mins.  

Rest in Peace Bozo.

We also look at what options Queensland has at their disposal to cover for Cameron Munster and Harry Grant if both aren't fit for Game 1.

Staggs do - NRL Round 9 Preview - NOT The Footy Show Episode 234

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for a rare Thursday edition of the NOT The Footy Show Podcast with Round 9 here. We explore how Kotoni Staggs staying with Brisbane has totally crippled their salary cap and how Melbourne are taking full advantage by signing Xavier Coates to replace Josh Addo-Carr. 

In the Bonus Segment we call for the return of the 5 minute sin bin to help the NRL's 'Crackdown' (PR Stunt) against NRL teams deciding to completely flaunt the benefits of deliberately giving 6 agains away. 

Also on Episode 234 of NOT The Footy Show we wonder out loud if Magic Round could be in danger because the NRL itself might not be able to get to Suncorp to run it due to COVID implications and finally get a chance to read out your reviews! 

And give very quick tips on Round 9. Enjoy.
