While we love to have some good AFL banter on the show, this week’s episode is all about a star from another Aussie sport…  We’re jumping into the world of NRL (National Rugby League) with one of its most prominent athletes who played fullback, wing, centre and five-eighth for the Brisbane Broncos. 

Representing Australia at an international level and playing in the Queensland State of Origin…

We’re extremely chuffed to welcome Darius Boyd to the couch!  

He captained the Brisbane Broncos from 2017 to 2019 and has an illustrious 15-year career as a professional athlete having won 2 NRL Grand Finals. 

But folks…as much as we wanted to get lost in sport, this episode peels back the sheets to before Darius was a big sports star back to when “even getting $2 to catch the bus home wasn’t easy…” and he was being raised by his mum and then grandma at 15 years old. 

It’s a truly powerful tale as we follow Darius as he jumps from growing up with a tight budget to earning more money than he knew how to handle at just 18. We discuss the timeless wisdom he gained being coached by one of sports greatest mentors – Wayne Bennett – the drive that pushed him to become one of NRLs best players and the 5 Simple Steps to find positivity and mental peace.  

Tune in now folks, this one’s an inspiring tale!
