Author: Zero Tackle September 1, 2026 Duration: 26:23

The Penrith Panthers continue to be a key player in the NRL player movement space as premiership stalwarts Isaah Yeo, Moses Leota, Liam Martin and Nathan Cleary weigh up their future, with the latter potentially on the end of a $1.5 million offer from a rival club. Parramatta are also busy wheeling and dealing, setting their sights on an Origin back, which could spark another club’s pursuit for a representative player of their own. The boys also look at some of the biggest names set to hit the open market on November 1, and look at some potential landing spots for Bradman Best.⬇️ Today's Rundown:00:00 Intro01:58 Done Deals06:24 On The Move09:55 The Whispers15:05 Burning Question21:11 Landing Spots: Bradman Best25:10 What's Coming up?Recorded on 01/08/2026FOLLOW Zero Tackle on social media:NEWS: http://www.zerotackle.comFB: https://www.facebook.com/zerotackleTW: https://twitter.com/zerotackleIG: https://www.instagram.com/zerotackle/T: https://www.tiktok.com/@zerotackle
