Six Tackles With Gus

Phil Gould, Mathew Thompson

Booking Overview

This is a weekly rugby league analysis show led by two experienced broadcasters, with primarily host-led commentary and occasional external appearances from prominent figures in the sport. PR agencies could credibly pitch former NRL players, coaches, league administrators, or rugby league media personalities with firsthand stories, tactical insight, or strong views on the game's future; booking difficulty is low to medium because external guest use appears selective but the show's established league profile broadens access.
