Jason Demetriou won’t be out of the NRL bubble for long.

Only a week after having his contract terminated at South Sydney, the respected former head coach has been snapped up by Triple M to be part of their expert NRL commentary team.

Jason Demetriou has joined the Triple M commentary team.

A popular coach with the media, Demetriou was never one to shy away from sharing his views and opinions on the game’s biggest issues.

“We’re excited to have someone of JD’s expertise join our NRL coverage,‘’ NRL Content Manager Charlie White said.

“When you look around the game, there’s no coach within the media landscape with his relevancy or currency within today’s game.

“He has lived and breathed NRL head coaching for the past three years, so this is a very unique opportunity to get inside the mind of a modern day coach and what listeners will love is the way he breaks down the game with behind the scenes insights and importantly, is easily understood by the fans.”

The ex-Rabbitohs coach will join Triple M’s pre-game show at 6pm on Thursday night alongside Emma Lawrence, James Graham, and Wade Graham.
