Forty20 Podcast with Phil Bentham

We're joined by the RFL's Head of Match Officials Phil Bentham to talk about the recent documentary - "Beyond the Whistle" - taking a look behind the scenes at the world of professional match officials.

Plenty to discuss, including how it came about, refereeing in the modern world, how the Premier League sees our video systems and how we're looking to improve in 2026, and plenty more besides.
