#285: NRL Supercoach, selling Cleary, masterful or madness?

NRL Supercoach star Nathan Cleary is set to miss an extended amount of matches as the Origin period ramps up, is it masterful or madness to cut ties with the Penrith Panthers genius?

Former NRL Supercoach runner-up Tim Williams is joined by the SC Spy ahead of NRL Supercoach Round 15.

The crew recap the NRL Round 15 team lists, with no sign of Nicho Hynes and a major boost for Cody Ramsey owners.

They then take a look at the Spy's long-term squad planning, outlining his final team targets and how he plans to get them in, before dropping their trade and skipper plans for Round 15.
