🏉 Welcome to Kenty Blitz: Anthem Debate, Addo-Carr’s Future & Walsh’s Magic
Paul Kent breaks down the biggest stories in rugby league as the World Cup sparks plenty of talking points.
Kenty reflects on the opening weekend’s international action, Fiji’s emotional pre-game performance, and the debate over Australian players not singing the national anthem.
Plus, he revisits Anthony Mundine’s influence, explains how Sonny Bill Williams changed the balance of power between players and clubs, and discusses Josh Addo-Carr’s uncertain future at Parramatta, the pressure on Jason Ryles, and a potential opportunity for Tyrell Sloan.
Kenty also unpacks Australia’s halves battle, Reece Walsh’s extraordinary performance, Kalyn Ponga’s possible return, and why Super League clubs have pushed back against the NRL’s proposed deal.
