The Tip Sheet – 2025 Ep 99: Live KT Medal Discussion & NRL Finals

Sixties is absent from The Tip Sheet tonight but very much here in spirit as he does the ground work for the show at the Ken Thornett Medal presentation. Forty20 holds it down on the live stream as the wraps up the final full weekend of action before the off-season arrives for the NRL and Jersey Flegg Cup while Sixties transmits all of the deserved winners from the club’s big night. There has been some big market action as the Bulldogs and Sharks lock up core talent on and off the field for the long haul while the Sea Eagles and Knights also made long-term acquisitions. There was one more piece of fascinating signing news with Taylan May rejecting a 3-year deal from the Tigers and the club then almost instantly folding to his counter offer. The intrigue and drama of the finals is well and truly underway with Josh Papalii and Reece Walsh potentially injured at training while Nicho Hynes had his hip-drop charge sensationally downgraded within the space of 24 hours – is it another case of right outcome but troubling process? Laurie Daley is set to join the Sea Eagles as an advisor to Anthony Seibold. What does it mean for the dirty birds and for NSW?
