We dive into our annual Season Guide review and rate our predictions from Bona’s Bet, Deano’s Duds, and Mig’s Money. Spoiler alert: Deano’s Duds gives us plenty of laughs (and a few headshakes).

It’s Grand Final week in the 6’Some Cup and tensions are high! Mig has literally silenced Deano this week as he’s out crook, but we welcome a very special guest co-host who has plenty to say. Bona has zero sympathy for Harry Grant’s suspension, even though it hurts CEO coaches everywhere.

Bona’s feeling chirpy after taking down the Dregs, but don’t worry, there’s still plenty of spite to go around. The boys dig into the drama around the Panthers trainer—was it an honest mistake or something more?

NRLCEO HQ - Ode to Chad (Ep 295)
NRLCEO HQ
It’s just Bona and Mig on deck this week with Deano out, but the CEO chat rolls on. The 6’Some Cup top 4 is all but locked in, and shoulder injuries are suddenly all the rage across the league. The boys ask the big questions—will the Storm stumble without Jahrome Hughes? Did Jack Wighton get stitched up at the judiciary? And can Lachlan Galvin handle the wrath of Tigers fans this weekend? Plus, Bona battles his emotions as Chad Townsend’s retirement tour tugs at his heartstrings, and we preview all the Round 22 matchups. Plenty of laughs, debates, and CEO dilemmas as always!...

There’s the usual dose of ref drama, Bona’s growing obsession with Blayke Brailey hits new heights, and we lock in our captains for Round 21 of the NRL. Plenty of banter, blow-ups, and big calls.

NRLCEO HQ
We’re back after a few weeks off celebrating Queensland’s Origin win, and while Mig is MIA, Bona and Deano are holding down the fort and soldiering on. This week, the boys ask the big questions—what’s going on with all the backrow injuries? Is the Ponga and Newcastle relationship nearing the end? We also take a close look at the current NRL ladder and break down which teams could make a serious push for the top 4 and top 8 as finals approach. Plus, we preview all the matchups for Round 20. No Mig, no worries—there’s still plenty to talk about! This is NRLCEO HQ..

NRLCEO HQ - The Royal Commissioner (Ep #292)
NRLCEO HQ
The boys are back, and there’s plenty to unpack. Mig is flying high at the top of the ladder and chirping accordingly, while Bona’s team is stuck in cruise control and Deano continues his slow climb out of spoon territory. We recap Queensland’s Origin II win and debate whether Harry Grant still deserves to be a first overall draft pick in CEO. The panel salutes Alex Johnston as he edges closer to the all-time try scoring record and asks the big question—could DCE really fit in at the Roosters? Plus, we remind everyone why you can never write off the Panthers, and Mig gives his Mystery...

NRLCEO HQ - Toia's Mind Games (Ep #291)
NRLCEO HQ
The full crew is finally back on deck this week, including Deano, who conveniently returns fresh off a rare win in the 6’Some Cup. The lads kick things off by celebrating yet another monster performance from KK, before diving into a weekend stacked with CEO points, a flood of doubles, and even a cheeky hat trick. Deano lets rip over Billy Slater’s Game 2 selections, while Mig stirs the pot by backing teams outside the top four to make a genuine premiership push, much to Bona’s disbelief. The Broncos still haven’t won the panel over, and Mig goes rogue with a brand new off-script...
info_outlineWith only a few weeks to go until the NRLCEO finals, the lads discuss all the pressing matters surrounding the NRL and NRLCEO in a new segment called Yay or Nay. Mig is channelling his best Trevor Gillmeister impersonation as he drags himself from his sickbed to man up. And we are graced with Ipswich royalty as the coach with arguably the best team name in the comp joins the panel as a special guest.
