The Couch Commentator

Some Dolphin watch that also includ...

Welcome back couch commentators. This week we talk about the player on everyone's lips, Talakai. We take a look at that performance and wrap the rest of the round.

We have a very happy Broncos chat thanks to a 25 minute masterclass from the magnificent Ada...

Welcome back couch commentators. On reflection, by the end of the round, I can see how ironic the title of our podcast may seem.

We take a look at the Round 3 of the NRL, and give you our take. We send out our commiserations for one of the gr...

Welcome back couch commentators. This week was a unique one, where we had to record before a Broncos game! That's right, I said it, before! We didn't play in our traditional Friday night slot, nor the early Thursday ratings winner, not even a Super Saturday! We played the Sunday late game, the graveyard shift, usually left for the likes of the cellar dwellers. This is no ordinary year, this year l...
