The Time Joey Johns Smashed Matty Johns | Ask Kenty
About this episode
Kenty answers the rugby league questions fans are actually asking.
This week, Kenty shares the wild story of the Johns brothers’ bloody Newcastle fallout, plus other unforgettable training-ground fights. He also tackles the wrestle and six-again debate, explains why the Warriors are the NRL’s best story, and weighs up the recruitment and salary-cap challenges facing PNG and Perth.
Plus: private equity’s impact on the game, the history of the six-tackle rule, why tanking does not work under the salary cap, third-party deals, expansion drafts and whether fans have lost their voice in rugby league. #AskKenty
