Wayne Bennett Bans Triple M After Offensive Skit

News summary

NRL coach Wayne Bennett has indefinitely banned radio station Triple M after its Brisbane breakfast show aired an offensive mock interview targeting his ex-wife Trish and making inappropriate comments about his current partner Dale Cage's breast size. The segment, which repeatedly used a soundbite of Bennett answering media questions, led to outrage and prompted Cage to lodge a formal complaint with Triple M management. Despite on-air and personal apologies from hosts including Margaux Parker, Bennett has ceased all media opportunities with the station. South Sydney CEO Blake Solly has expressed full support for Bennett, calling it a private matter. The segment was quickly removed by Triple M, but the incident has raised concerns about media respect for personal boundaries. The controversy could also affect Triple M's future NRL coverage.
