Warring brothers Matty and Andrew Johns have planned a lunch to mend their ugly eight-week feud.

The pair will meet in the next few days for the first time since their on-air blow-up on SEN.

Joey Johns told Ben Fordham on 2GB on Thursday morning of the planned lunch next week.

Fordham asked Joey if the brothers would coach NSW next year as a replacement for Brad Fittler.

Joey said: “That won’t be happening.

“But we’re going to have lunch in the next couple of days.

“I rang him and said I’ll talk to you after Origin.”

The feud erupted on their Friday morning SEN show before Origin when Matty started praising Billy Slater and his Maroons.

Joey says he is delighted for Fittler after Wednesday night’s win.

“I’m Freddy’s biggest supporter – I was so happy for him,” Joey said.

Joey will be missing again for his radio gig on SEN on Friday morning, despite reaching out to his brother.
