The nrl footy show season 17

Previewing the upcoming round of National Rugby League, complete with live audience, gags, competitions and a front row including Sterlo, Fatty & Matty. Between the stupidity, some serious issues are tackled and hard questions asked.

Well, it has been quite a week in the NRL. The League came down hard on the Storm, there are those that think the punishment fits the crime, and those who think a competitive Storm is a must for the NRL. Who's right and who's wrong? Who knows, but one thing is for certain, we'll cover it all right here on The Footy Show.

Tonight on The Footy Show, its test time and we'll talk to both Kangaroo and Kiwi camps. Knights veteran Adam “Mad Dog” MacDougall, Dragons centre Jamie Soward, and the talented but casual Brad Fittler join the panel. Robbo tests the City Country boys. It's a recipe for disaster, a cravat, a kitchen and the Big Marn. The Falcon flies by and Beau knows babies.
