Billy Slater unpacks a big week in rugby league, starting in Melbourne as the Storm navigate key changes to their roster and look to reset for another serious premiership tilt. What do those transitions mean for their spine, their edge, and their identity? There’s also a close look at Jonah Pezet’s move to Parramatta and how he could slot in alongside Mitchell Moses. Is this a partnership that unlocks the Eels’ attack, or will it take time to find rhythm? Billy shares his thoughts on Eli Katoa’s return from injury and the quiet leadership he’s beginning to show at the Storm. It’s about more than minutes on the field. It’s about standards, presence and influence inside the sheds. And we finish with a blockbuster preview as the Brisbane Broncos host the Penrith Panthers at Suncorp Stadium. The Broncos are back from their World Club Challenge experience, the Panthers are still chasing greatness, and Friday night footy does not get much bigger than this.
