#119: Who Won the Recruitment Battle? Golden Boots, Salford Crisis & R360 Delayed

In this week’s episode of the League Express Podcast, Editor Martyn Sadler and Host Jake Kearnan break down the biggest talking points in Rugby League as the sport looks ahead to the new season.

The pair discuss Magic Weekend ticket sales before reacting to Harry Grant and Julia Robinson winning the Golden Boot awards. Attention then turns to Super League recruitment, with debate over which club has strengthened the most ahead of next season and whether Robbie Mulhern could be heading to the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

Martyn and Jake also explore the growing dispute between the National Conference League and the RFL, the ongoing uncertainty surrounding the Salford Red Devils’ future, and the decision to postpone R360 until 2028. They assess which club that missed out on the playoffs this year is best placed to bounce back and challenge next season.
