Golfer Paige Spiranac made waves earlier in the week when she went to Manly Sea Eagles training, but Andrew Johns used the moment to throw his nephew under the bus.

Johns formed a premiership winning partnership with his brother and now-Fox Sports personality Matthew during his career and now Matty’s sons are playing first grade.

Jack plays at Newcastle while Cooper moved from the Storm to the Sea Eagles in the off-season and had impressed during pre-season and round one.

But with the influencer heading down to Sea Eagles training, earlier in the week she was able to give golf lessons to players and get some footy lessons from Manly boys.

It was here a picture caught the eye of the eighth Immortal, calling out his nephew on his WWOS show Immortal Behaviour during the week.

Host Danika Mason set up Johns, bringing up the “celebrity promo day” which saw golf influencer and PointsBet ambassador Paige Spiranac go to Manly training during bye week.

“I think your nephew was there …” she said.

“I saw a picture of him holding the tackle bag — he was really interested in the technique,” Johns said before both of them began to laugh.

“Someone said, ‘have a look at this photo of this golfer tackling the tackling bag at Manly training’, and I said ‘okay, $1.01 who’s holding the tackling bag’. And there’s Cooper, with that stupid grin on his face.”

Spiranac’s online popularity has soared over recent years, resulting in her launching her own content website OnlyPaige.

The influencer shows off plenty to her vast followers online and even more to subscribers of her site.

But Spiranac won’t do one thing despite her immense success online, explicit content.

“No, there is no nudity on OnlyPaige,” Spiranac said on Wednesday’s instalment of her Playing A Round podcast, in which she answered a series of fan questions.

“I think some people get confused because it is OnlyPaige and it was a cheeky name to make fun of OnlyFans, because I get asked to do OnlyFans all the time by people and so, I wanted it to be very tongue-in-cheek. There is no nudity, and that’s on purpose.”

The site was launched in January, providing subscribers with access to golf instruction, live streams, Q&As and exclusive photos.

The 29-year-old added on her podcast Wednesday that she believes “implied nudity and not showing everything is actually sexier.”

“I have no issues with implied nudity at all. I just never want to show those parts of my body and I never will do that,” she said. “I also just don’t think it is beneficial to my business goals and how I see my career unfolding in the next five, 10, 15, 20 years.”
