As player safety continues to be the number one issue in Rugby League today our heroes are buoyed with confidence knowing the NRL will not.... ever.... compromise...... if there's a fire.Our heroes provide the CSA that there has been no crackdown, none...Crackdown here, no... The 18 sin bins last week was the eventuality of an anomaly, which despite our sincerest efforts we have been unable to eliminate from what is otherwise a harmony of mathematical precision. Matrix Revolutions quotes aside, the Grapplers tackle the assertions of the NRL's top dog and turn from admiration to criticism the deeper they delve and separate themselves from comparisons with David Gallop.The player safety focus is challenged by the numbers in the NRL casualty ward and the Rabbitohs being with a 3rd of their top squad riding the pine. Far too much Broncos analysis for one, is never enough for another, as these men offer solutions for Madge's glaring absence of hookers in his squad.Rugby Australia's deal with their new coach is sealed with a Kiss, Joe Schmidt gives the resurgent men in Gold the Long Kiss Goodnight, and the Reds are Kissed on the proverbial to hold on to their coach for another year.Tom Lynagh has not been given the Kiss of Death despite what some outlets are reporting, he's just being rested, and Harry McLaughlin-Phillips is next on Kiss List.With every Kiss pun exhausted our hero's gaze turns to the Subcontinent and the actions of a young man aged between 14 and 34 who became the youngest kid in the IPL to knock a ton and in 35 balls thank you very much.Amazing considering how small the Indian junior base is. NBA, a quick lesson on vice work and a couple of charming dudes who simply want to Grapple.Like it, subscribe to it, share it, dig it.

Ex-FA boss David Gallop can remember the time an A-League owner told him he didn't care about the Socceroos. It's that kind of ugly encounter that underlines the next challenge for the beautiful game in Australia. As football seeks to seize its moment, we wonder how the game can transform itself off the back of the Socceroos World Cup success and ask if Graham Arnold is the man to lead the national side to the next tournament.

Australian rugby is in quite a state and today we have Brendan Cannon on the show to speak about the need for us to remedy this by reigniting a lost sense of community around our beloved game. For those who don't know, Brendan was an Australian Wallaby from 2001 to 2006 and has a large number of games under his belt for the Queensland Reds, the Waratahs, and the Western Force too. In today's show, we chat with Brendan about his personal journey, the obstacles he overcame to achieve what he has, and his views on the current and future state of Australian rugby. Brendan takes us through his formative years and his time with the Souths before getting into a topic that penetrates most of today's conversation, the growing disconnect between professional and club rugby, causes for this, and the tremendous losses the game has experienced as a result. Our guest weighs in on changes in gameplay, the commercialisation of professional rugby, the effects of COVID on the industry, and what could be done to bring back our glory days. We also hear about some of Brendan's personal experiences as a professional player such as his swift return to the game after a severe car accident, his transition from number eight to hooker, and his scrum injury that marked his final exit as a professional player. Don't miss this amazing conversation with a man who brings a lifetime of perspectives from inside and out! Key Points From This Episode: • Brendan's rugby family legacy, love of the game, and childhood memories playing at Souths.• The way famous players used to still play for their clubs, inspiring young players.• Commercialization of pro rugby and reasons for its growing disconnect with amateur rugby.• Why pro players should invest in their clubs and not forget about paying tribute to these roots.• Prohibitive costs, sanitized product, less free gameplay, and other reasons rugby isn't what it used to be.• Brendan's near-fatal car accident and what allowed him to return to rugby soon after.• Why Brendan decided to transition from number eight to hooker and his experiences after.• Brendan's career-ending scrum injury and his perspectives on scrum adjudication.• Contributors to Australian rugby's bad state: dismissals, COVID, commercialization.• The potential that bringing back a sense of community has to reignite Australian rugby's spirit.• Examples of brand ambassadorship shown by Andrew Demetriou and David Gallop.• Cues to be taken from other sports about broadcasters being more critical of administrators.Links from this weeks show: Queensland Reds - Queensland RedsNSW Waratahs - WaratahsWestern Force - Western ForceSt Laurence's College - St. Laurence's CollegeSouths Rugby - Souths Rugby Union ClubWhite Ribbon Day - White Ribbon Day
