Paul Kent is heading into his season break with a firm objection to expanding the finals: should a team that loses more games than it wins get a chance at the title? His farewell episode arrives as FanaticsTV's Kenty - Paul Kent NRL Podcast rises from 120th to 83rd on Apple's podcast chart in Australia.

Made by FanaticsTV and hosted by rugby league journalist Kent with Warren Livingstone, the show mixes NRL reporting, outspoken opinion and the occasional detour beyond league. The final Kenty Blitz of the year puts the proposed 2028 wildcard round under scrutiny. Kent sees revenue behind the change and objects to giving lower-ranked sides another route into contention.

"Do you deserve a shot at the title when you can't win more games than you lose?" he asks.

There is international football to consider before the hosts put their microphones away. Kent tips Reece Walsh and Tamika Upton for the Golden Boot awards, then frames the Australia-New Zealand World Cup final around a contrast: the Kiwis' strength up front against Australia's quality in the backs. The episode contains a betting sponsorship commercial.

Recent instalments have also examined Pacific Test pay and Sam Walker's uncertain club future. But the farewell brings a different conversation to the comments: viewers describe the show as part of their routine, including a listener in Wales who fits it into the start of the working day.
