The Tip Sheet - 2023 Ep 64: Spiro Returns To Preview Massive NRL & NRLW Clashes

The launch of the NRLW and a critical games against the Cowboys in the NRL means The Tip Sheet needs to bring out the big guns this week. Spiro comes in from the back fence to join Sixties and Forty20 to preview a massive weekend of footy for the Parramatta Eels. Before that though, the boys canvas Spiro's thoughts on some rugby league current affairs including the Fainu brothers signing with the Wests Tigers and Ethan Sanders leaving the Eels for the Raiders. .The Eels head to Townsville to take on the Cowboys in another high leverage match for ladder seedings. The Blue & Gold will be without Reagan Campbell-Gillard and Maika Sivo, can they overcome that handicap? Back at home the NRLW makes a confident statement with a standalone game between the Eels and Tigers on Sunday. Wests have recruited smartly and leaned into their connection to players from the Harvey Normans Women's Premiership but the Eels have also picked up some key players. Who will prevail? Can the home crowd get Parramatta over the line? Sixties and Forty20 wrap up the show with a look at the Wentworth Park double header as the Jersey Flegg and NSW Cup take on the Sydney Roosters. The Flegg have plenty to play for this weekend as an upset over the ladder-leading Roosters keeps them right in the hunt for the finals. The NSW Cup are playing purely for pride as they look to knock off the only team now seeded below them.
