The Tip Sheet – 2026 Ep 75: Rd 19/2 Previews & Origin III Review

Another mammoth preview podcast sees The Tip Sheet covering five grades, some massive news out of the Tigers (for which you should also check Ep 74 for more in depth thoughts) and a rapid fire review of Origin III. Sixties and Forty20 run right through the Flegg all the way to NRL as the Eels face the Roosters in the mens footy and the Dragons/Steelers in the ladies this week. With only the NRLW dropping their game last week the Blue & Gold now have a terrific chance to build across Saturday and Sunday - so how do they stack up? Lincoln Fletcher is set to make his NSW Cup debut in Round 19 as he rejoins Lorenzo Talataina in the halves. It adds an extra layer of interest to the Cup this week as the Eels ramp up their development in reserve grade. In the NRLW, Parramatta will be looking for a vastly improved effort after they slumped to a disappointing loss to the Tigers in Round 1 while the NRL squad will be looking to play spoilers to Daniel Tupou's 300th cap on Saturday night.
