Jayden Nikorima was a young football player who had it all. 

As a Rugby League Footballer he followed his older brother Kodi into the NRL making his debut at the World Club Challenge for the Sydney Roosters and played a fantastic game. 

Fast forward 18 months and a series of injuries, hanging around the wrong crowd, bad decisions around drugs and alcohol and it all came crashing down. 

This is part one of the Jayden Nikorima Story as told by Jayden, his Mum and Dad and his brother Kodi.
