Scientific paper

We present deep Spitzer/IRS spectra for complete samples of 46 2Jy radio galaxies (0.0575%) than their more extended counterparts (=15 -- 25%). We discuss this result in the context of a possible bias towards the selection of compact radio sources triggered in gas-rich environments.
