Pearl's Preview Pod Round 1 - a podcast by NRL

Steve Renouf, in the first edition of Pearl's Preview Pod for NRL.com, has made the case why the post-Johnathan Thurston era will start with a win for the Cowboys against the Dragons on Saturday night in Townsville.
Renouf says the star studded Cowboys forward pack, which includes Test lock Josh McGuire on the bench, will pave the way for new captain Michael Morgan to control the game at halfback.
Renouf explains why all three Queensland teams will start their seasons with wins and why Michael Maguire and Ivan Cleary will have first up wins in charge of the Wests Tigers and Penrith respectively.
