World Cup Final Preview - NOT The Footy Show Episode 274

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for Episode 274 of NOT The Footy Show as they preview the big one - Australia v Samoa in the Rugby League World Cup Final. 

Australia will go in with the same 17 that defeated New Zealand, whereas injury will cost Samoa another starting hooker - with Chanel Harris-Tevita thrown into dummy half with a heck of a job to do. 

We predict the score for the Final and Man of the Match and even The Rock will be watching apparently. 

Plus we examine the ridiculous decision by the World Cup organisers to name the Rugby League Golden Boot and Team of the Tournament BEFORE the Final has even been played... 

Classic Rugby League. 

Thanks for listening everyone - hope you enjoy the World Cup coverage from NOT The Footy Show.

Australia defeated New Zealand 16-14 and Samoa edged out England 27-26 in Golden Point - with both the Kiwis and English left ruing their missed opportunity.

World Cup Quarter Finals Preview - NOT The Footy Show Episode 272

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for Episode 272 of NOT The Footy Show as we preview the Quarter Finals at the 2021 Rugby League World Cup with all the favoured teams through to the knock-out stages of the tournament. 

Australia hadn't made the call on who was playing halfback prior to recording (Mal Meninga did so during our recording so keep in mind we didn't know yet) but they should walk through Lebanon in their Quarter Final, as should New Zealand over Fiji and England over PNG (maybe). But the Tonga v Samoa clash is going to be epic - will the lads change their pick from pre-tournament and declare Tonga Semi Final bound? 

Earlier today we recorded the fifth of our The Recruitment Whisperers shows on Episode 269 which is available now.

World Cup Wrap Week 2 - NOT The Footy Show Episode 270

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for Episode 270 of NOT The Footy Show as we wrap up Week 2 of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup being played in the UK. 

In Week 2 - Australia looked tremendous, New Zealand scored the most points but Jamaica won World Cup's hearts, PNG still hit to hurt, the Samoans looked more likely and did Tonga take a step back? 

As for England - we are not sure about them... at all. 

We wonder what Mal Meninga is trying to achieve by shielding Daly Cherry-Evans from the disappointment of giving up the Australian halfback job to Nathan Cleary and analyse how the Kangaroos will approach player rotation against Italy, and then into the Quarter Final likely against Lebanon. 

We also look at how all the Quarter Finals appear to be set before Week 3 games are played.

World Cup Wrap Week 1 - NOT The Footy Show Episode 268

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for Episode 268 of NOT The Footy Show as we wrap up Week 1 of the 2021 Rugby League World Cup being played in the UK right now. 

We cover England's gigantic win over a woeful Samoa, Australia doing the business against Fiji and New Zealand cantering to a win over a spirited Lebanon but the game of the tournament so far was PNG v Tonga. 

We examine what the first week of results mean for the Quarter Finals - especially on the England-Samoa-Tonga-PNG side of the draw - and explain how France are a genuine shot at making the Quarter Finals at Samoa's expense. 

We also give Andrew Voss a major endorsement to take over at Channel Nine after seeing him in his element commentating RLWC games away from the Fox Formula. Make it happen Ronald!

NZ Kiwis v Rest of the World Cup - NOT The Footy Show Episode 266

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for Episode 266 of NOT The Footy Show as we preview just how good the New Zealand Kiwis will be against the Rest of the World Cup in the UK starting this weekend. 

We also have to revisit the jersey number debacle that's a direct result of the Australian Rugby League falling asleep at the wheel (Yes Mal Meninga... this is on you) as they clearly didn't realise the Tournament organisers wanted to change up how jerseys were allocated a two or three years ago. And now we've got a total mess. 

We also cover off the other likely contenders for Semi Final spots in the World Cup - but highlight how Australia and New Zealand cannot meet in the Final this time around - can Tonga, Samoa or hosts England take advantage of the easier road to the Final? 

Earlier today we recorded the second of our The Recruitment Whisperers shows on Episode 265 which is available now.

Australian Kangaroos Team Preview for World Cup - NOT The Footy Show Episode 263

Join Robb Cox and Warrick Nicolson for Episode 263 of NOT The Footy Show as they break down the Australian Kangaroos Team for the upcoming Rugby League World Cup in the UK.  

We pick our preferred starting lineups and the bench is particular point of contention - with where Jack Wighton ends up in the 17 a big factor in how we settled on our teams.  

Despite some snubs at the selection table, Australia will still field an awesome backline and very handy forward pack so right now we believe they deserve to be firm favourites to retain the World Cup in England.  

We also discuss how Mal Meninga got the team he wanted and that the end of the road of Damien Cook probably should've meant the end for Daly Cherry-Evans too... plus PVL dribbles something about Origin and Test eligibility at the presser that we've included audio of but we couldn't make any sense of it so we didn't even discuss it on the show - we genuinely don't know what he was going on about.  

Stay tuned for Episode 264 and the debut of 'The Recruitment Whisperers' - coming out next.  

Plenty more podcasts to come during the Rugby League World Cup.
