  • Knowledgeable and to the point

    As an avid fan of several NRL podcasts I must say Guru provides listeners with the most comprehensive and professional delivery of content on today’s game. He basically understands and “gets” league better than the rest.

    On another front he comprehends and has a sound knowledge of players past, a storyline sadly eluding many of today’s current crop of podcasters. For those unaware there were actually half backs before Nathan Cleary….

    Well worth the listen for those who love the game. Highly re... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Take the Two with Sowie: Sowie's Interchange Rule Change, Dragons Drama and Effective Kicking Games
Q: How might 10 interchanges change the game?
Ten interchanges would allow more players to rotate, keeping intensity high and potentially reducing HIAs, while changing early game tempo and end-game outcomes as teams deploy more specialists or fresh legs.
Take the Two with Sowie: Sowie's Interchange Rule Change, Dragons Drama and Effective Kicking Games
Q: What does it mean to go for your best kick?
It means trusting your first instinct and choosing a kick that puts pressure on the defense, often when the ruck speed or defensive line isn't fully aligned, rather than forcing the last kick of the set.
Round 5 QnA Podcast
Q: Hey Ru, is it too early to start looking at the buy rounds?
The host suggests focusing on a flexible squad with 11 to 14 players in a buy week and prioritizing long-term value over chasing immediate buy-week fixes, emphasizing the best 13 and future potential rather than overreacting to short-term buy round specifics.
Win, Learn or Draw: Tigers Deep Dive, Ru's Top 5 Tigers and Much More
Q: What is Rue's view on Benji Marshall's coaching approach this season?
Rue sees Benji Marshall embracing a more open, player-led style that allows talented players to play to their strengths, which should accelerate player development and align with the Tigers' broader cultural shift.
Round 2 QnA From the Ru Crew
Q: What is your view on whether referees bias star players, like Harry Grant, in penalties or six-again calls?
I think there is some bias at times, especially towards top players who constantly test the ruck, but it's balanced by understanding the human element referees face and the ongoing need to manage fatigue and pressure.
