Description
🏉 Welcome to Kenty Blitz: “It’s All Done” Herbie Roosters Whispers Grow | Kenty Blitz
Paul Kent breaks down the biggest stories in rugby league as the NRL Grand Final draws closer.
Kenty reflects on Newcastle’s extraordinary finals run and the Knights’ grand final fever, before making his calls on the Dally M awards — including why Nathan Cleary remains the man to beat.
Plus, he unpacks Phoenix Crossland’s heartbreaking four-week suspension, Nathan Cleary’s classy response, and whether Newcastle’s judiciary case could have been argued differently.
Kenty also discusses the grand final pre-game entertainment debate, Connor Watson’s bid to be cleared under concussion protocols, Daly Cherry-Evans’ confidence, the coaching chess match between the Roosters and Knights, Herbie Farnworth’s likely move, and Parramatta’s decision to extend Jason Ryles.
