How the NRL comes to life on radio with Sam Hewat

from Full Noise · host Sport Nation

On this extended edition of Full Noise, host Logan Swinkels is joined by Sam Hewat - the play-by-play voice of the NZ Warriors on Sport Nation. It's all about 'The Art of the Call' and how rugby league comes to life on the radio - from Fantasy NRL's influence on Hewat's preparation, to his dynamic in the booth alongside Blake Ayshford, knowing your market and when to lean further into bias - plus, the pair relive three of the most memorable Warriors calls in recent years. Before that, they look back on their time in Las Vegas in 2025 to cover the NRL on the strip and at Allegiant Stadium.
