2026/10/05

Abbey and Georgie wrap up a Grand Final weekend that delivered heartbreak for Newcastle and another title for the Roosters. They unpack the Grand Final itself, the NRL’s much-discussed pre-match entertainment, why the Roosters looked unstoppable all season, and celebrate the rise of Marky Mark Nawaqanitawase, who somehow managed to win an Ashes, an Origin and a premiership this year. Plus, a look back on the biggest stories of the season, a debate around where the Knights go next, some flowers

The NRL Grand Final is almost upon us, and because Abbey has trust issues when it comes to fairy tale Grand Final wins, we also have to talk her through what happened last week. Wharfie Time, TOD, around 5PM Saturday 26th of September 2026. BUT, as all great tragedies must do, they must end. And as Freo leaves our collective hearts, ahead of the NRL Grand Final agains the Sydney Roosters, the Newcastle Knights GALLOP their way in.

Three time Richmond premiership captain Trent Cotchin joins Abbey and Georgie fresh from a front row seat to Brisbane’s latest flag, having watched the Grand Final from inside the Lions coaches’ box. Cotchin takes them behind the scenes of the comeback, explains what separates great teams from merely good ones and compares the culture driving Brisbane’s remarkable run with the Richmond dynasty he helped build. There’s plenty of love for Will Ashcroft, too, as Trent reveals

Grand Final week goes into overdrive as Abbey and Georgie land not one but two AFL premiership players in the same episode: Richmond great Jack Riewoldt and four time Hawthorn/Geelong flag winner Isaac Smith, for dueling previews of Fremantle vs Brisbane. Riewoldt breaks down what it actually felt like in the rooms when Freo booked their first ever Grand Final berth, watching former teammate Shai Bolton embrace family and friends after his move to the Dockers, and makes the case for defence deciding

Abbey and Georgie gear up for the AFL Grand Final by unpacking a dusty box of Dockers memorabilia Abbey has stored away since switching allegiance to the Tigers. There's spirited debate around who deserves to win (and who's actually going to), Lachie Neale’s tribunal drama and the sky-high travel costs for Freo fans.

Rove McManus joins Two Good Sports for a Freo fan therapy session, reflecting on the Dockers' historic season, the heartbreak of 2013, and why Freo supporters still can't quite believe a premiership is possible. He shares how he became a lifelong Dockers fan, gives us the lowdown on "Warfie Time", and explains what making (and potentially winning) a grand final would mean to him after decades of support. Along the way, the chat drifts into WA footy culture, merch rivalries, a secret about Optus

It's NRL finals tonight, and although the top 8 is (in Georgie's words) 'crazy', we are fully invested. It's crazy because unlike most seasons, there's no obvious favourite and every finals team looks dangerous. Georgie chats with team captains from across the top eight about Kalyn Ponga's failed hex on Nathan Cleary, midriff celebrations and whether Two Good Sports can become the Knights' official supporter group.

Run clubs are booming, marathons are selling out, and somehow everyone you know is suddenly training for something. So we sat down with elite runner and FEMMI co-founder Lydia O'Donnell to find out what’s really behind the running craze. From run clubs becoming the new dating apps to the mental games that kick in deep into a marathon, Lydia explains why so many people are lacing up and why they keep coming back.

Georgie Tunny and Abbey Gelmi unpack the scenes that left us all in tears, debate whether AFL's Wild Card experiment has won over its critics, and discuss the growing anti-Geelong movement, the AFL Legends Game, and why Carlton has suddenly become everyone's second favourite team.

What happened to the Brisbane Broncos this season? 12 months ago, they looked like one of the NRL’s most formidable teams. So what went wrong? Georgie does an autopsy. In the AFL there's a very important conversation going on. Adelaide captain Jordan Dawson’s powerful comments on mental health showed us how sport can help drive conversations that we all should be having.

Georgie Tunny and Abby Gelmi discuss the ongoing investigation at the Sydney Swans, and the uncomfortable conversations it has sparked across the AFL. Speaking as women who have built their careers in sport, they reflect on the allegations, the reaction from fans and media, and the broader questions around culture, accountability and the treatment of women in football.

What can be done about footy's concussion crisis?

2026/08/17

The AFL is under scrutiny with the Jake Kolodjashnij concussion controversy. The Geelong defender signed a waiver that releases his club from any legal risk over future concussions and it has opened a big can of worms. The NRL is also dealing with a concussion debate; it's still reeling from Eli Katoa's injury last November. With growing legal, medical and ethical questions around head knocks, we ask a big question: can the sports we love continue to exist in the same form we grew up watching? We

He lost his foot to a lawnmower at the age of 2. He wore a prosthetic that meant he could play footy until he was 12, wearing a blue and white hooped design inspired by his beloved Geelong Cats. Then he realised he was pretty good at butterfly. He's won Comm Games gold and won silver at the Glasgow Games last week. He went viral for reminding us in a post-race interview to"talk to yourself like someone you love." This week on Two Good Sports Col Pearse explains the story behind the speech that
