Did Garth Brennan cop a raw deal as an NRL coach?

Listen to the latest episode of Toohey's News: The Podcast on Apple, Google, Spotify, or wherever you like to listen.

Garth Brennan freely admits that he was never the greatest player on the field, but he found his stride as a coach in the NRL where he dedicated his career to the development of some of the greatest players in the game.

In a career marked by success often followed by bitter downfall, Brennan - a former Newcastle Knights junior - made his mark not just as a coach, but also as a police officer and later police prosecutor.

In a wide-ranging interview with host Barry Toohey for the Toohey's News podcast, Brennan looks back on his unique career and the rocky road that led him to where he is now.
