Excellent podcast. I listen in every podcast. I get information I’m never going to get here in London, where Rugby League is not on the radar, and probably 5th in line behind Football, Cricket, Union and Basketball. Keep up the good work.
Well laid out. I don’t mind it going for a little longer than intended. It’s insightful and I just enjoy the access
this absolute champ is the best in the business when it comes to injuries in the NRL, must listen for rugby league tragics
This pod covers the NRL casualty-ward well, but as someone who doesn’t play fantasy, the real hook is the interviews. Really rate the deep dives on rehab at the elite level with honest discussion of the physical and mental impacts of being injured. 10/10 would recommend.
Amazing insight in to a lot of injuries of current players and also players for players who have finished awhile ago
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.
