In this week's edition of your favourite rugby league podcast, Running It Straight, Sam Hewat and Anthony Gelling dive into all of the permutations of a tantalising final round of the regular season of the NRL.
As you'd expect, the spotlight is firmly fixed on the NZ Warriors, who have a chance to lock up a top-four spot, pending the results of both their finale against the Manly Sea Eagles and a couple of other marquee match-ups.

Where do the Warriors need to be at their best to get their hands raised at Brookvale Oval on what will be a sentimental night for the locals, as they farewell one of their club stalwarts in Daly Cherry-Evans?
Warrior-turned-Sea Eagle Jazz Tevaga dials in to chat about the big match, reflect on his year in Manly and look ahead to his opportunity in the UK.
Rounding matters up is a wrap of the eight teams to miss out on the post-season and their areas of focus need to improve their fortunes in 2026.
