We are back with the Rugby League Roundtable for 2024! A brand new cast with a current head coach, player, executive & journalist sitting down with James Graham to debate the biggest issues in the game. The crew this year is Dragons head coach Shane Flanagan, former Kangaroos & NSW star Aaron Woods, Manly Sea Eagles CEO Tony Mestrov & the Daily Telegraphs Brent Read.

This week we look at how the game manages player welfare & concussion. We debate how the game should handle the kick off, talk training contact sessions, player lawsuits & the boys go head to head over the length of the NRL season.
