Daggy, Benny & NRL great James Maloney return with news.com.au’s Extended Bench, ripping into some of the pressing stories of the Rugby League world. We kick off discussing the potential 20th NRL Franchise and why a Christchurch-based setup makes sense for the game’s future in New Zealand. We then look back to last week’s State of Origin Game Two, discuss what went wrong for the NSW Blues and where they can right the ship, and Jimmy names a shock successor should Laurie Daley move on from the role in 2027.
