Rat Pack Ep.8: Geno Segers Joins the Pack | From Football to Rugby to Stage

Geno Segers joins the Rugby League Rat Pack—and this one goes way beyond the game.

Geno’s journey—from starring as a college football player to learning rugby in New Zealand and Australia, building businesses, and ultimately finding his voice on stage and screen—is one you won’t hear anywhere else.

From elite sport to storytelling, Geno shares what it takes to adapt, evolve, and seize opportunity across multiple careers.

The boys then hit the pitch for the NRL Recap, Super League Round Up, Bobo’s Breakdown, Most Valuable Preston, and A Look At the Local League—this week spotlighting the Brooklyn Kings.

Plus, a signature segment: Military History in USA Rugby League, led by Jeff Preston, exploring the deep connections between service and the sport.

Bold takes, sharp analysis, and the usual chaos from Niuy, Bobo, Duck Arse, Sergeant Slaughter, and Vassy!
