Matty Johns has revealed Parramatta star Dylan Brown’s classy act after the five-eighth took some convincing to appear on his TV show.
Dylan Brown is a class act.
The Parramatta Eels five-eighth was appearing on Fox League’s panel show Sunday Night with Matty Johns, when the host himself pulled back the curtain on what happens in the world of TV.

NRL players are invited to come on the show for a small payment, and Matty Johns revealed Brown had donated his entire fee to a good cause.
“Now I don’t want to embarrass you (Brown) but when people come on here — you wouldn’t believe this — they get an appearance free,” Johns said.
“Player managers, it’s not a lot, but you get an appearance fee and Dylan is dedicating the whole fee to Ronald McDonald House. Good job, well done mate.”
The panel of Johns, Nathan Hindmarsh and Bryan Fletcher, along with the live studio audience, all gave Brown a round of applause.
It later emerged Brown agreed to come on the show only if Fox League doubled his payment and donated it all to Ronald McDonald House — a charity the Eels have a long affiliation with.
On the field, Parramatta defeated the Wests Tigers 28-20 in a tough battle at Leichardt on Saturday.
The NRL’s split bye rounds have concluded after round 18 and the Eels will next take on the New Zealand Warriors on Friday night.
The Eels are currently sixth on the ladder, just one win outside the top four.
