Channel Nine Footy Danny Weidler journalist criticized NRL’s great Braith Anasta for allegedly threatened to beat him in remarks he made on a podcast.
Weidler – who also writes for Sydney Morning Herald – accused the former Bulldogs, Roosters and Star Tigers of “ wanting to hit people and abusing them ‘after that he said he wanted to fight him in a celebrity boxing match.
Anasta used her Podcast BTFU to attack the team of Nine Footy’s comments after being accused of having a conflict of interest because he manages several LNR stars while discussing movements on the players’ market in his role as host of the NRL 360 of Fox Sports.
After having pointed out that nine stars Phil Gould, Paul Gallen, Brad Fittler and Billy Slater all have close links with the teams in addition to their comments work, Anasta spoke of holding a charitable boxing fight against journalists.
“Register me. Register me now, ”he said.
When his co-host and colleague ex-star of the NRL, Reni Maittua, suggested that the colleague SMH of Weidler, Michael Chammas, Anasta replied: “Do not worry about Chammas, the other guy, Weidler.

Anasta (photo) said that he would love “would enter the ring with Weidler in a charitable boxing match while he was unleashed at” hypocrisy “of nine stars on his podcast
“I would love.
Maitua then joked by saying that Weidler “ would hit the s ** t out of you ”, with Anasta by responding sarcastically: “Please”.
Weidler retaliated in his SMH chronicle on Sunday, alleging that “Anasta said that he wanted to stop what the journalist and also people at nine”.
“It seems that the pressure arrives in Anasta when he finds it difficult to balance his role as a leading player agent and a commentator.
“ His clumsy (on NRL 360) were so bad that he dropped the word “F” on television live this week after taking an introduction.
“This did not prevent him from being stuck in another player agent without declaring his possible conflict of interest.
“Wanting to hit people … is not intelligent.
“Some of the messages … are harmful to Anasta.

Anasta (left) said he had called Weidler several times and “ became quite fiery with him ” for the writing of journalist that he has a conflict of interest when he welcomes Fox Sports’ NRL 360 Show
“Anasta’s intelligent approach would be to keep your head down instead of saying that he wants to hit people about 15 years older than him.
“This columnist is certainly not Mike Tyson, but I’m not sure that Anasta does not think he is Jake Paul.”
These messages in Weidler were also discussed on Anasta’s podcast while the former star of NSW’s original state, aged 43, has expanded his problems with the journalist.
“Danny Weidler puts him in his article, he puts him in his heaps. Whenever he is fortunate to have a crack on me and push the conflict of interest by being a player agent, he often puts him in the newspaper, and each blow, he takes, “said Anasta.
“They (new and SMH) question my integrity.
“And as much as I hate him – and I actually sounded Danny a few times and I became quite fiery with him – it will not stop.
“So you know, people read this and it puts a false story in their minds.”
The discussion on the perceived conflict of interest of Anasta is not new, but it was renewed by the scandal surrounding the future of the star of the Wests Tigers Lachlan Galvin.
The 19 -year -old became the biggest story in Footy last week when he refused a $ 5.5 million contract and revealed that he would leave the club once his contract is completed at the end of next season.
This has launched generalized speculation about the reasons for the split and the possible role of the Manager of Galvin, Isaac Moses, who was strongly criticized by many commentators.
Anasta and the Panel NRL 360 have discussed the issue at length, giving birth to the accusations of his conflict.
He described these accusations as “hypocrisy” on his podcast, Weidler taking care of this, and the questions raised about his colleagues at nine.
“ To try to reject the criticisms, Anasta rather chose to attack the Nine Network and his figure most in sight Phil Gould in a podcast, calling it because of his two roles of television experts and the boss of the Bulldogs. None of this was new, ”wrote Weidler.
“He then tried to attack the tastes of Paul Gallen, Billy Slater, Cameron Smith and even Andrew Johns, but he barely put a verbal glove to them.
“It was not a well -considered random or thought, but some of the people who, according to him, are his comrades.”
