🏉 Kenty Blitz: Ask Kenty — Walker’s Future, NRL’s Best Players & PNG Concerns
Welcome to the final Ask Kenty of the season, as Paul Kent tackles your questions on the biggest talking points in rugby league.
Kenty unpacks the Sam Walker contract saga, media influence on player movements, and how the Super League war changed rugby league reporting forever.
Plus, he picks the game’s best players by position, weighs up Tedesco, Walsh and Ponga, and explains why instinctive halves are making a comeback.
He also discusses PNG’s recruitment challenges, the state of English rugby league, taking Tonga versus Samoa to America, and the debate around an Indigenous World Cup team.
And if the Bears land Matt Burton, how would their best side stack up against the Tigers?
