How Michael 'Ennis the Menace' went from taunting Raiders fans in 2016 to consulting for the club

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

Michael Ennis had a talent for getting under the skin of his opposing players on the field. He played 274 NRL games, along with Origin appearances for NSW and won an NRL premiership with the Cronulla Sharks in 2016.

He has played for the Newcastle Knights, the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs, Brisbane Broncos, St George Illawarra Dragons and joined the Canberra Raiders as a coaching consultant in 2019.

Ennis joins Toohey's News: The Podcast host Barry Toohey in episode 27 to talk about his celebrated playing career and all that has followed, and how he developed his on-field persona as "Ennis the Menace".
