Sports news, told differently. What happens off the field is just as fun as what happens on it.

Whether you’re a casual observer or a diehard fan, you’ll be brought up to speed on the people behind the narrative, why the story matters, and gain a new perspective on the issues at the pointy end of

2026/07/30

We try to make sense of an avalanche of gold medals, record-breaking performances and some remarkable athlete stories coming out of the Comm Games. A week ago we were wondering where the hype is, now it's everywhere. Lachie Kennedy broke the national 100-metre record with a time of 9.85 seconds. Torrie Lewis won Bronze and broke her own record with a time of 10.99. In the pool Australia’s swim team closed out Glasgow 2026 with 76 medals in total, a haul that eclipses the previous record set in

The World Cup is over but the memes live on, and we're already counting down to the Women's World Cup in Brazil next year - what can we expect from our Matildas? The Commonwealth Games are underway; how are our athletes faring? And there are new rules around the TV coverage designed to stop the over-sexualisation of female athletes on broadcasts. What's happened exactly and why did it take this long? Plus, a debate that lit up the comments section: is the AFLW being set up to fail? Why is the NRLW

Fresh off the side of a mountain somewhere in France, Australian cycling legend and SBS commentator Simon Gerrans (the only Aussie to win a stage at all three major tours) joins Two Good Sports to explain why Tour de France riders might just be the toughest (and most unhinged) athletes on the planet. As the Tour De France wraps up this weekend, we get a crash-course (pun intended) on cycling and why it's actually more of a team sport than we think. From winning the Tour Down Under a record four

Abbey and Georgie are off this week but will return on Friday the 24th of July after a much needed rest. In this episode we look back at some of our favourite moments from the past few months to keep you going. Surfing icon Layne Beachley tells us how over a decade of campaigning led to finally achieving equal pay for women. The Wiggles Simon and John joined us earlier in the year, to talk resilience as an Eels fan, fatherhood and their love of sport. Luke Bateman, former NRL star and current

Layne Beachley has a list of achievements as long as the beach at Manly. She was inducted into the Sport Australia hall of fame in 2011, and elevated to legend in 2023. She won seven world surfing championships, including a record six in a row. She was a game changer in so many ways that her legacy goes well beyond the silverware. From fighting for pay equity in surfing to learning how to detach self-worth from achievements, Layne drops so many life lessons that Abbey immediately starts planning a

It was an historic night at Suncorp as the Blues won the decider by 18 points. Laurie Daley will keep his job and Nathan Cleary shut up the 'can't do it in Origin' haters. It was one of the all-time great games - unless you're Georgie Tunny. We unpack the dubious calls and tries that maybe shouldn't have stood on a crazy night of rugby league. Friend of the pod Sophie Molineux and the greatest team in Australian sporting history won the T20 Women's World Cup. Why aren't they getting the media

T'was the night before Origin. It's the most special time in our lives: it's Game 3 of Origin and it's winner takes all. Origin nights at Suncorp are always crazy but this one's going to be extra special. Queensland's most feral fan Georgie Tunny went up to the Sunshine Coast to get the lowdown from the players on how the Maroons are preparing to face a Blues side who will be fired up after a bruising loss in Game 2. Kalyn Ponga, Murray Taulagi, JoJo Fifita and Patty Carrigan talk to us about what

We didn't know that a simple stat about Caitlin Clark, a rookie basketballer in the WNBA who outsold LeBron on jersey sales, would cause such madness on the Two Good Sports Insta page. Caitlin has become one of the most talked-about names in sport. Her meteoric rise in just 2 years, manufactured drama and a rivalry with Angel Reese - we debate it all and discuss why she’s such a polarising figure, what her status says about the state of women’s sport, and why fans can’t seem to

It's about time we talked about the World Cup. The Socceroos have (arguably) defied expectations and made it through the group stage. Now we play Egypt in the first knockout round on Saturday morning. Is it winnable? Niav Owens thinks so, and she knows her football. The host of SBS' World Cup coverage joins us to chat our chances of progressing to the round of 16 and meeting Messi and Argentina (unless Cabo Verde pull off the biggest ever World Cup shock), why this squad is so exciting, and what the

We talk about this and much more: Athletes openly using performance-enhancing substances Prize money that dwarfs Olympic payouts, how can it be?

With Steph Rogers from the 49ers, we learn what it takes to move an entire American football team across the Pacific ocean, why the sport is gaining momentum in Australia, and whether the players think it's really a good idea. Not many athletes have to travel 15 hours to games. Plus, we chat ice hockey, AFL/NFL comparisons

Former NRL player Luke Bateman joins Two Good Sports for one of those conversations that starts with rugby league and ends somewhere very different. From growing up in western Queensland and chasing the footy dream, Luke opens up about life inside professional rugby league, the culture that comes with it, and the very real impact of gambling harm that's embedded in Australian sport. Luke talks about his battles with addiction, therapy and embracing his inner child (Little Luke), before we turn the

This week we find ourselves right in the middle of the matchup between sport and pop culture. From Kim Kardashian’s grid-side appearance in Monaco to the ongoing debate around celebrities, influencers and who “deserves” to be at major sporting events, it's all creating a lot of debate around who should get to be pitch, track, or court side. There’s also a look at the economics of fandom (and why not everyone’s thrilled about courtside seats going to famous plus-ones),

Whatis offensive though is the worst sledge a footballer can ever receive - and Matildas icon SBS FIFA World Cup CommentatorLydia Williams has received it. She shares it with us to general shock in the studio. We also preview the Socceroos’ World Cup campaign and our chances of progressing from the group of “death-ish.” We talk through

He's a fiercely competitive boxer, but there's a lot more to Harry Garside than what you see in the ring. He's known for challenging stereotypes around masculinity and was a finalist on I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here. He challenges stereotypes in our chat today in more ways than one. We had him on a year ago but a lot has changed since then. We find out what he's been up to,

We talk launch week chaos, the emotional rollercoaster of releasing a debut novel, and the very weird reality of building a career in sports media that served as inspiration for the story. 'Over To You' is a work of fiction, let us be clear on that. From her first newsroom disasters to national TV, Georgie opens up about ambition, burnout, female friendship (thanks Gelmi) and the stories behind the book everyone’s talking about. It's

He built and commandeered an army. An army who donned blue beanies and plunged into the ice and took action, knowing the leader would one day lose his life to the enemy. This is a bit of a different episode for us. Following the passing of Neale Daniher after a 13-year fight with motor neurone disease, we take a moment to reflect on a life that changed far more than footy. We hear Neale's own words from 2019, a message for his grandson about courage, responsibility, and facing life when it

At Roland‑Garros, Aryna Sabalenka was wearing diamonds while calling for increased prize money - it sparked a conversation about double standards and the economics of tennis, but why can't women just support women? Novak or Janik never got asked those questions. InFormula One, we explain why tension, rivalries and team

Ahead of Game III of the 2026 Women’s State of Origin, Georgie is joined by Jess Elliston, Lauren Brown and Jada Ferguson for a very Queensland conversation about heartbreak, pride, and why this game still matters even when the series is quote/unquote 'gone'. The girls talk about what camp feels like after a tough loss, the unspoken no‑dickheads policy, and why you’d still run through a wall for the jersey.
