Tommy Turbo
Luke Brooks
Damien Cook
Kalyn Ponga
Mitch Moses &
Jake Turpin??

No disrespect but WTF, how did he get a gig? generally the players who get media gigs have some sort of profile within the game.

Was going to say the same re Turpin, no disrespect but it seems a very strange pick considering his current standing in the game.....good for him I guess.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

He might be a useless nuffy with great insights into the game. Just like me.

He might be a useless nuffy with great insights into the game. Just like me.

or a useless nuffy with no insights, just like...................

Oh, never mind.

Oh, never mind.

A lot of us WT folk, we wait for pou to throw his crumbs of league wisdom our way and then we swoop in hard and fast to devour them…with gratitude.

It was a fun joke, but he knows his stuff Willis.

Lu high command should offer him a senior moderatorship without any interview.

When 360 unlimited arrives, he’ll be made an offer and we could lose him.

Fox League boss Steve Crawley has confirmed a team shake-up for the 2026 NRL season, headlined by the return of star presenter Yvonne O’Keefe.
O’Keefe, who has previously hosted NRL 360, and husband Chris O’Keefe in August celebrated the birth of their second child, son Darby.

Code Sports reports the popular host will be back behind the Fox League desk in 2026.

According to the report, the former Channel 9 journalist’s return is one of several changes viewers will see in 2026.

Former Manly premiership-winner Kieran Foran is set to have an expanded, full-time role after proving to be a popular analyst this year.

Foran, who announced his retirement in July, will be juggling his roles at Fox Sports while working as an assistant coach at the Sea Eagles after being headhunted by coach Anthony Seibold.

The biggest changes are happening behind the camera.

As Tommy has the green shirt, does that mean he only gets to be on the shows before the first three adverts (unless covering a Penrith game, and then he gets to be on for however the f@ck long he wants to be…)

That's a pretty shit line up..
Most of them can't talk Cook and Moses are probably the only 2 that can string a sentence together.

Ponga wtf is he doing on the tv.. Just a way to bump up his salary.

‘Greatest job in the world’: Buzz retires as journalism great after storied 50-year career — NRL Daily

‘One of the greats’: Buzz makes surprise call on legendary career in touching message

www.foxsports.com.au

Legendary sports journalist Phil ‘Buzz’ Rothfield has retired, ending a 50-year stint with News Corp Australia covering events across the globe, with a focus on rugby league.

Rothfield began his time as a journalist in 1976, quickly becoming one of Australia’s best news-breakers and a dominant voice across the country’s media landscape.

Alongside covering rugby league, Rothfield also was the Olympics editor for News Corp in the 2000 Olympic Games and attended multiple Super Bowls and football World Cups.

Rothfield has previously held positions as Sunday Telegraph deputy editor, executive sports editor of The Daily Telegraph and Sunday Telegraph before becoming the sports editor-at-large over the last decade.

He frequently appeared on Fox League’s NRL360, while his “What’s the Buzz” column has remained the most popular piece in Australian media for over 30 years.

“Half a century covering rugby league, and the madness that comes with it, is long enough for anyone,” Buzz said to The Daily Telegraph.

“It’s been the greatest job in the world and there are so many people I’ll make time to thank personally over the next few months - colleagues and contacts alike.

“It has been an absolute privilege, but after 50 years of working weekends, it’s time to enjoy life without the stress and responsibility that comes with the job.

“I’m looking forward to just being a fan for the first time in my adult life... Rugby league is, without doubt, the greatest game of all. And will continue to be.”

Meanwhile, Daily Telegraph Editor Ben English paid tribute to a giant of Australian sports media.

“Phil Rothfield has always been one of the greats – in journalism, in rugby league and as an eternally larger-than-life presence in The Daily Telegraph’s office.
“Our newsroom will be much the poorer for the retirement of Buzz, who led generations of reporters by example and by exemplary mentoring.

“There is not a member of our staff, me very much included, who has not benefited over the decades from Buzz’s input.”

Will be sorely sadly missed by many on here

Counselling available

 

[Twizzle]

I wont miss him, I can honestly say I've never watched him in my life.

I've seen bits on X, but that's all.

Corey Parker's an odd choice.

I swear Willie mason has been talking about tv, is he on 7?

Corey Parker's an odd choice.

I'd say they need a QLDr and NSWman.

Broncos and Maroons legend Corey Parker will headline a new panel show on Channel Seven as the network plans to cement a future home for rugby league.
Agenda Setters, which will air on Monday nights at 7.30pm during the NRL season, is Seven’s first attempt to insert itself into the rugby league ecosystem and marks a step towards bidding to secure games on the network under the next broadcast deal.
Joining Parker on the panel are former NSW Blues front-rower Aaron Woods, three-time premiership winner Luke Keary, and The Daily Telegraph and Code Sports award-winning sports journalist David Riccio, as they promise to cover all things rugby league.
Airing directly after Fox League powerhouse NRL 360, Parker, the host of Agenda Setters, has declared the show will be different from its counterparts and can provide a home for analysis, breaking news and unfiltered debate.
“From a difference point of view we have all bases covered,” Parker said on separating the new show from competitors.

“For Channel Seven to have a good footprint in rugby league, I think it’s a no brainer.
“Rugby league, it’s a 24/7 news cycle, and people thrive for that taste, whether it’s what they’re doing at training, what they’re wearing, what sort of haircuts, who’s coming to a club.”

Despite Parker’s ambition in making the show different, he has also guaranteed that, like any good rugby league show, there will be blow-ups over differing opinions.
This will be especially true when it comes to Parker and Woods, who battled in both the Origin and club arenas for many years.
Woods, who now considers himself a journalist and has worked on Triple M as a radio host, has admitted both he and Parker tend to disagree on almost everything.
“Mate I just have to try and get a word in first to get my point across because he doesn’t shut up,” Woods said of Parker.
The 34-year-old retired star will have a busy Monday, going on air at 6am for Triple M before finishing his day at Seven HQ in Eveleigh at 8.30pm.

A small sacrifice Woods is willing to make if it means more rugby league on TV.
“To see what Channel Sevens doing, they’re making a statement that they want to get a game in the next broadcast deal,” Woods said.
“They’re having a red hot crack, and this is what you want to see.”
Riccio will remain a key member of the NRL 360 panel, which launches in Las Vegas this Thursday, along with host Braith Anasta, Gorden Tallis, Brent Read, Michael Carayannis and Dean ‘Bulldog’ Ritchie throughout the entire 2026 season.
Agenda Setters: Rugby League premieres 7.30pm Monday, 9 March, on Seven, 7mate and 7plus Sport.

Keary is also on Fox isn't he? Or has he jumped ship?

Woods is the comic relief

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I'd say they need a QLDr and NSWman.

I suppose all the Queenslanders with personality are mad merkins who are probably too loose for the corporate TV environment. Charismatic-but-harmless might be an exclusively Sydney/Melbourne thing.

Yeah Fox and also on Triple M podcast. He is everywhere it seems.

 

[the phantom menace]

Not a stellar line-up... can't say anything about it is convincing me to tune in.

Then again, I don't watch any of these shitty visual podcast TV league shows these days anyway...
