With just six rounds remaining before the finals, Billy Slater breaks down the biggest stories in rugby league. Can the injury-hit Storm still pull off a miracle? Why Cronulla have become the competition's hottest team, and why Penrith remain the safest premiership pick despite not being the form side. Billy also gives his thoughts on the West Tigers' Adam Doueihi saga, the Bulldogs rediscovering their defensive identity, and the extraordinary recruitment advantage being handed to the new PNG Chiefs after landing Zach Lomax and chasing more elite talent. 00:19 Intro00:44 Are the Broncos and Storm finished?05:55 Can the Raiders make the finals?08:13 PNG Chiefs land Zach Lomax14:44 Why the Sharks are the NRL's form team20:21 What's gone wrong at Manly?22:54 Cowboys end Brisbane's season25:57 Billy reveals what went wrong at the Broncos30:12 Penrith's championship mindset34:38 Why Penrith are still the team to beat36:39 Bulldogs rediscover their defensive identity39:26 Billy on the Adam Doueihi and Tigers drama45:24 Billy backs Benji Marshall47:14 Round 22 preview49:09 Storm's next generation gets its chance51:37 Billy's first game at fullback New episodes of the Billy Slater Podcast every Monday.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
