Origin of the Series

It's the 1982 decider, it's at the SCG and NSW have finally selected Brett Kenny in the starting side. What could possibly go wrong? Enter Phil Sigsworth..... Jeff and Steve pontificate on matters musical and theatrical and reflect on the beginnings of their 49 year friendship. What's that you ask? What's the latest on Matilda? The boys have that covered too, so grab a sawn-off and a bachelor's breakfast and settle in.

Jeff and Steve ask some of life's big questions. Does Brentnall ever spill a bomb? Will Rex ever get three names right in a row? Are sheepdip and wranglers legal tender? They'll stop the world and melt with you

1st June 1982 and the old interstate series has been consigned to history and State of Origin footy is here to stay. In this episode Jeff and Steve talk about Happy Days, land rights and the Dead Kennedys with a little rugby league thrown in as well.

It's 1981 and this is the last of the one-off State of Origin games. Jeff and Steve discuss the highlights and ponder the merits of Chris Close's 2nd Man of the Match award whilst providing a balanced review of Rex's commentary.

Jeff and Steve are finally talking about State of Origin footy. It's the 8th of July 1980 and it's game time.

What came before State of Origin? Jeff and Steve discuss the interstate series prior to SOO and the need for a major change. They try hard (and fail) to be objective and unbiased lovers of the greatest game of all.
