A new global rugby competition is looming – R360. A privately backed global rugby competition to shake up traditional rugby, but NRL supercoach Wayne Bennett isn’t having it.
Bennett’s warned the NRL is under serious threat, with rumours swirling that over 100 rugby league players have already signed letters of intent to jump ship if R360 goes ahead.
Triple M Breakfast with Marto, Margaux and Dan host, and former Wallaby, Greg ‘Marto’ Martin says Bennett needs to “stop complaining” – rugby league’s been poaching union players for years now:

“There’s more to the world than just Australian NRL… I love NRL. I love watching it. I spend more time watching NRL than I do rugby union now, but quite simply the world of rugby is enormous. It’s only struggling here in Australia.” said Marto.
