Sydney Roosters five-eighth Luke Keary can empathise with both sides in the ongoing collective bargaining agreement dispute as NRL players front the press for the first time amid the Rugby League Players Association's media strike.
Keary has also disputed claims by Canberra coach Ricky Stuart that players are unaware of the nuances to discussions around the CBA, which is now eight months overdue.
The RLPA announced its most drastic action in 20 months of talks last Wednesday after a meeting of more than 50 players from across the NRL.
