Episode Notes
It’s one of the biggest weekends on the rugby league calendar, with hordes of NRL fans swarming Brisbane for Magic Round.
But for the Warriors, the weekend has been overshadowed by news of halfback specialist Luke Metcalf’s split from the team.
The 27 year old had previously committed to the Warriors until 2028, but has now reportedly signed a contract with the St George Illawarra Dragons.
NRL legend Braith Anasta told Piney when he first heard the rumours, he couldn’t quite understand it.
He thought Metcalf and Tanah Boyd would be partners in crime in the halves, and was surprised Metcalf seemingly didn’t entertain it.
