Billy's under pressure, QLD are underdogs, and the bunker cocks another one up. It's a big week for rugba legg, and our heroes are up to their necks in a tireless search for answers to questions you didn't realise you needed to know.
Are media bans actually media bans? What would Reece Walsh talk about anyway? Who's been the most under pressure State of Origin coach in history? Is a broken leg a blessing for Nicho Hynes? And are the NRL's touted record participation numbers actually papering over a disturbing truth in grassroots rugby league?
All that, and much much mor.. well, SOME more stuff.. on the 22nd installment of The Grapple Podcast.

Episode…. Let’s say 21!
This week our heroes Grapple with the listener question- Has QLD and Billy begun to believe their own hype? Digging into Origin and discussing any needed changes. The Rah Rah boys have been given the green light to jump ship..... invoking memories of H.H. Messenger in 1908. Are the Broncos flogging a dead horse and The Annersley Effect- should it really be Charlton Heston delivering the weekly media brief on the rule interpretation buffoonery. Only here will such burning questions be addressed.
Life’s a Grapple.... Dig It.
