On the final episode of the The Six Again Podcast for 2026, Pip Morris, Ravinder Hunia and Savannah Jonkers dissect last week's NRLW grand final that topped off another great season.
The Roosters were able to continue their winning streak, remaining unbeaten in 2026 and sending Millie Elliott and Corban Baxter into retirement with another premiership ring.
Although the NRLW season is offically over, there is a Rugby League World Cup on the horizon and who better to join the show than Kiwi Ferns debutant Stacey Waaka.
The cross-code star shared some insight into her world cup ambitions, close friend Gayle Broughton’s shock omission from the New Zealand team, and what a 2027 season with the Warriors may look like.

The hosts also unpack who will represent New Zealand in the first Test on October 18, while also questioning other notable squad exclusions including Kennedy Cherrington and Tiana Davison.
And already looking towards the 2027 season, they preview the great rebuild Ron Griffiths has on his hands, but also other team changes throughout the competition.
