South Sydney has had a home at Stadium Australia for some years but CEO Blake Solly is still hoping they can move back east despite some opposition from Venues NSW. Chatting to Andrew Moore and the team he said they are being told that moving away from their current home would cost the stadium operating body between $4-$14 million. BUT he's demanding that they show them the money - or the lack of to argue their case.
Jace drops in for a cool chat & names his Dream 13! Any player. Any era. Any team. Any competition ... then combine them!
South Sydney utility Euan Aitken spoke to NRL Friday hosts Andrew Moore, John Gibbs and Michael Carayannis on ABC Sport.
Our regular podcast has catered principally for racing fans since its introduction seven years ago. This week we break the mould by presenting an interview with Royce Simmons OAM who reached dizzy heights in his footballing career as both player and coach. From the time of his Alzheimer's diagnosis in 2022, Royce hasn't left a stone unturned in keeping himself fit enough to pursue every avenue in raising money for dementia research. His results have been inspiring. The celebrated hooker played in 238 games for Penrith between 1980-1991, ten for the NSW Blues and another ten in the green and gold of Australia. Every time I run into Royce at a sporting function I'm reminded of the fact that he should be a guest on our podcast. I issued an invitation at a recent Panthers charity luncheon and he graciously accepted. Royce talks about his current state of health and the success of the “Royce's Big Walk” initiative which has raised thousands of dollars for dementia research. He talks about his recent hosting role at a Saturday afternoon Panthers initiative called “Royce's Race Day”. Members and guests got to enjoy the best in food and drinks, good fellowship and the opportunity to chat with one of Penrith's favourite sons. Royce talks of his love of a dabble but doesn't rate himself as a successful punter. The Penrith Hall Of Famer talks of early life in the Lachlan Valley township of Canowindra where he developed a liking for the Rugby Union code. Royce talks of his hard working parents and his siblings - two sisters and one brother. He reflects on a move to nearby Gooloogong when his father George purchased the local butcher shop. He brings up the subject of Cocky Raider, a champion pacer of the late 60's and early 70's who was trained in the town by Jack McWilliam. Royce was just ten or eleven years of age but hasn't forgotten the impact Cocky Raider had on the 500 residents of Gooloogong. Royce looks back on his subsequent move to the big smoke and trial games for St George and South Sydney. He hasn't forgotten an unexpected approach from the Penrith Club generated by a recommendation from Parramatta star Barry Rushworth. To make it all come together Royce had to play two trial games in twenty four hours. Many have forgotten that Simmons played lock forward in his first year with Penrith. The former champion hooker talks of the radical changes in the scrum feed. He looks back on his unforgettable debut for the NSW Blues in 1984. Royce says he lost the job to Benny Elias in 1985, but returned the following year to get “Man Of The Match” in Game 1. His form in the 1986 State Of Origin series earned him a spot in the Kangaroo squad to play three tests against NZ. He was the first Penrith product to play for Australia. Later in 1986 Royce toured with the Kangaroo side in a six test series against Papua New Guinea, Great Britain and France. He didn't get a break that year. Royce talks about his seven years as captain of the Penrith side, a role he took very seriously. He looks back on Penrith's clash with a very strong Canberra side in the Winfield Cup Grand Final of 1990. Perhaps Royce Simmons is best remembered for his two try contribution to Penrith's first ever premiership win in 1991. It was his final appearance as a player, and one he'll never forget. Royce takes us through the circumstances under which his “double” eventuated. The OAM inductee takes us through his coaching days which began with the St Mary's first grade side but soon escalated to loftier heights. On returning to Australia Royce was invited to take over the role of Panthers coach from the departing Phil Gould. Royce looks back on seven happy years as assistant coach of the Wests Tigers under the leadership of Tim Sheens. The former Penrith legend was gobsmacked when an offer came for him to coach the famous St Helen's Club in England. It didn't work out quite as well as Royce had hoped. He pays tribute to his wonderful family - wife Liane, children Kirk, Britt, Carly and Demi and special mention of seven grandchildren. Royce acknowledges the administrative talents of Brian Fletcher who recently announced impending retirement from his role as Panthers Group CEO. I've never forgotten the Network Ten coverage of the 1991 Winfield Cup Grand Final. It was Penrith's first premiership, and an unforgettable swansong for one of the club's greatest sons. Royce Simmons remembers the greatest day of his playing career on this week's podcast.

In the late 1980s and early 1990s, rugby league was a code looking to expand nationally after the success of its premier competition in Sydney. Clubs emerged in Brisbane, Newcastle, and the Gold Coast. Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation took the growth in the sport as an indication it ought to expand even further and plotted a coup, to take the running of the code out of the hands of the establishment - the Australian Rugby League. What followed was a war that ripped the sport apart with Murdoch on one side and the other, backed by another multi-millionaire media mogul, Kerry Packer. It was mogul against mogul, club against club, and players against players. In this episode of Judgements we take a deep dive on how and why the war began - and how the game came back together to form what is now the National Rugby League.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Wests Tigers didn't get flogged, but it was still a disappointing night for fans on Sunday. Taking on injury-hit South Sydney, there was hope our boys could keep that important 50% win record alive heading into the bye. It wasn't to be, though, with Souths getting home 22-12. On this edition of the Wests Tigers Podcast, Joel Helmes is joined by Steve Stretton and Eddie Otto to pull apart the most recent Wests Tigers Performance. Some of the key issues up for discussion include: Our lack of direction Our lack of impact Our poor execution Our lack of variation in most of our plays There's also the topic discussed that seems to be on most Wests Tigers fans' minds, and that is recruitment. Why are we watching a promising season slip away without strengthening some of the obvious weaknesses in the squad? There are a couple of positives on the agenda, though. It can be hard to find too many things to get excited about as a follower of the club right now, but we found a couple. These are, namely, the ongoing contributions being made by Sione Fainu and the impressive work of Tony Sukkar on Sunday evening. There's also a pat on the back for Charlie Staines and Sunia Turuva, too. We run through the many 'One Word' contributions from members of the Wests Tigers Podcast Forum, and Steve tells us about the Ambush event held before the match. That event was a little different, it included members of the rival Souths group, The Burrow. Did everyone get along? Steve has the details. Oh, and Eddie and Steve also fire their shots in a new round of calling out some rugby league columnists over their ongoing questionable behaviours. We didn't get the win, but we hope you enjoy this latest edition of the pod. Thanks for listening.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Craig Bellamy's future at the Melbourne Storm is uncertain after 23 seasons as head coach. Frank Ponissi, General Manager of Football for the Melbourne Storm, told Peter Psaltis on Wide World of Sports, "He's coaching as well as I've ever seen him coach. He's enjoying it, there's a good vibe in the group." "So I just see no reason why he shouldn't continue." "I think Wayne Bennett's proving age is not a barrier. He's done phenomenal things at South Sydney and he's got a few more years on Craig." "So I think that should be an inspiration for Craig to keep going," Mr Ponissi continued.
