About this episode

The episode discusses major updates in the NRL, including coaching changes, player injuries, and controversies surrounding the Perth Bears and Terrell May's comments.

Danny Weidler and Adam Pengilly are joined by Charlie White for another episode of The Journos on Triple M NRL. Kieran Foran has signed on with Manly Sea Eagles long-term but are him and Benji Marshall ushering in a new era of coaches? Are they forcing clubs to revaluate their planning moving forward? Both Weidler and Pengilly have big Origin squad updates. A fair few injured stars could be coming back but where do they fit? Perth Bears coach Mal Meninga is being investigated for breaching NRL's anti-tampering laws and even though Weidler doesn't agree with the rule exisiting, he explains that Perth are still at fault and continue to be the "Bungling Bears". The crew look at Terrell May's recent podcast appearance and the criticism he had of the NRL, Penrith Panthers CEO Matt Cameron, his loyalty to Benji Marshall and not the Wests Tigers plus his thoughts on why he isn't getting picked for NSW Blues. Is the NRL gagging Phil Gould in the media? And Parramatta Eels have gone to war with one of their biggest fan podcasts! What's going on there?
