    PRL 15 August 2024 - Behind the Royal Blue curtain of the Newtown Jets, with CEO Stuart McCarthy

    Newtown Jets CEO Stuart McCarthy joins the pod to give us a glimpse into what it's like running a Rugby League club away from the bright lights of the NRL. What are the spreadsheet tabs that matter? Is it possible to make ends meet? How does a rainy Saturday at Henson Park impact the bottom line? Who came up with the idea for the Beer Footy Food Festival? Oh and how close were we to experiencing the "Western Jets"? There's nothing quite like second-tier sport. And no-one does second-tier sport quite like the Newtown Jets. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    PRL 3 July 2024 - Mo-bloody-mentum with Dr Caitlin Fox-Harding

    Parramatta Eels fans have a difficult relationship with momentum. There's an actual physical limit to how much we can talk about a certain match from a certain year against a certain team with a certain 16-point lead with a certain 10 minutes to go... ...maybe it's time we try understand momentum a little better. Dr Caitlin Fox-Harding joins us to go deep on this elusive sporting concept. Read Caitlin's article in The Conversation - https://theconversation.com/the-mystery-of-the-massive-sporting-comeback-whats-the-psychology-of-momentum-in-sports-232598 Hosted on Acast.

    PRL BOOK CLUB: Andrew Webster on The Wolf You Feed - Wayne Bennett: The Man, The Myth, The Mayhem

The Wolf You Feed - Wayne Bennett, The Man, The Myth, The Mayhem dissects an extraordinary life and explains how family life and family strife shaped the man and the coach that has helped shape Rugby League.
