Simmo and Dukie are back in the studio for another unmissable episode of The Sports Wrap, your go-to for passionate opinions, razor-sharp stats, and the kind of banter you didn’t know you needed in your life. This week’s show kicks off with a twist—Simmo’s Around the Grounds takes an unexpected turn after resident NRL expert Josh Parke calls in sick. Never one to shy away from a challenge (or the chance to take the piss), Simmo steps up and delivers the NRL Wrap himself, giving us a no-holds-barred rundown of the league’s weekend action—whether Josh likes it or not.

From there, it’s into AFL Round 15, and let’s just say Simmo is not holding back. With bye rounds wreaking havoc on the fixture, the Thursday and Friday night games were, in his words, “boring rubbish” that had no business being scheduled in the premier timeslots. If you’ve been frustrated by the AFL’s bizarre scheduling choices, this rant is for you.

Then it’s time for the stat attack you didn’t know you needed but now can’t live without—Dukie’s Crunching Numbers. This week, Dukie’s dived deep into the GWS database and come up with a stat so juicy, so beautifully nerdy, that data lovers everywhere will be rushing for a quiet moment to themselves. Honestly, it’s that good. Expect spreadsheets, graphs, and a fair bit of frothing.

We’ve also got the ever-reliable Simon Says, Simmo’s take-no-prisoners segment that blends social commentary, sports oddities, and unfiltered rants into one glorious stew. From players milking free kicks to Simmo’s theory on why footy coverage needs less analysis and more chaos, it’s unpredictable and absolutely essential listening.

Wrap it all up with in-depth analysis, some light sledging, and a few moments where Simmo and Dukie genuinely forget they’re on air, and you’ve got another classic episode of The Sports Wrap.

It’s footy talk for fans who love the game, love the stats, and most of all, love a laugh. Don’t miss it!

We are in full September swing on this week’s show with finals being the big go to on the airwaves. Matt Cecins with WAFL, Paul Bonsor with SANFL and Daniel Hobley has AFL. Plus Rhys Gardiner chats on an epic Italian Grand Prix and Juri Bilcich has a Roundtable with a twist, all on this week’s DRN1 Sports Wrap.

Regan and Josh are back and pumped for another episode. Continuing on the footy talk from last week, Regan and Josh go through a complete rundown of Round 1 and the challenges we faced in our AFL Fantasy teams. We then took a look of what would the Australian 2nd XI Test side look like if we picked the guys who were next in line. Lastly we looked over the NBL Finals and the current bracket as it stands for the NBA with the playoffs not too far away.
