Today's show is brought to you by the Warriors debut on this day back in 1995. Interviews are with: Lisa Murray, Craig Wiggins, Craig Ferguson, Don Carson, Jane Smith, Joe Wheeler, Michael Collins, Jim Paterson, Barry Soper and Grant Nisbett.

It's the whole show in one go! Today The Country is brought to you by the Warrior's debut at the NRL on this day back in 1995. Jamie is off site at the CB Norwood Rural Games and Hilux NZ Sports Awards, leaving Dom to run the fort back home at The Country HQ. What could possibly go wrong?

On with the show: Lisa Murray: Our Met Service Weather forecaster gives us an update on what we can expect over the weekend.

Jamie Mackay, Craig "Wiggy" Wiggins and Craig "Ferg" Ferguson: Three titans of broadcasting converge on the unsuspecting public of Feilding. Ferg finds himself trapped between two grown men fighting over the shearing commentary...

Don Carson: Is a freelance rural commentator who comments on the superannuation debate, sheep meat into Iran and is Donald Trump "the last ejaculate of WWII?"

Jane Smith: We head to the Upper Clutha A&P Show in Wanaka where the Glammies are being decided and where Rabobank is hosting Red Meat Profit Partnership staff and farmers at its marquee.

Jim Paterson: Wool report update with a man Jamie has cruelly dubbed "The Grim Reaper", are things looking up yet Jim?

Barry Soper: Another big week in politics including John Key's official "retirement" date.
