More from The Rugby League Journeymen
The NRL season might be over, but Jimmy and Lats are still coming in swinging. This week on Rugby League Journeymen, the boys pull apart Australia’s narrow win over New Zealand, debate whether the Kiwis have exposed the blueprint to beat the Kangaroos, and weigh up Tonga and Samoa’s World Cup chances. Jack Bostock’s debut gets some love, while a detour into rugby union has the Prof defending the Wallabies and the boys reaching for the wind-up button. Meanwhile, Toby Rudolph checks in from a birthday pedicure with his mum, Jimmy remembers making his Australian debut a couple of kilos heavier than planned, and Lats relives getting folded in PNG with the Prime Minister’s XIII. Throw in some highly questionable golf claims, Jimmy’s favourite things to do away from footy and a fresh round of YouTube comments, and there’s plenty of ammunition to keep everyone firing.
