Kenty answers your biggest NRL questions — from post-game press conference audio and the race for the 20th club to falling crowds, Peter V'landys' expanded power and the bunker. Plus, Paul Kent weighs in on reviewing the play-the-ball after every try, whether tackle stats are inflated, who's paying for the PNG franchise, why jerseys have no names on the back, how Wayne Bennett rebuilt the Dolphins and how the finals should work. And Kenty tells the story of the day he challenged Anthony Mundine at a press conference. Got a question for next week's Ask Kenty? Drop it in the comments. Visit fanatics.tv!
