We're lucky enough to be joined by a man who epitomizes the term battler better than many; David Bason as he talks us through his journey in rugby and beyond. From his memories of 1st XV and NZ Secondary Schools rugby to stepping up into the NPC where he shares the reality of what it is like to be second choice. He talks career highs such as playing a Super 14 Grand Final in front of 50,000+ and lows such as being cut from Counties Manukau and having to turn down an offer from a giant European club. On top of that there's plenty of funny stories along the way including an eventful club rugby debut, tales of many battler teammates, which fellow halfback he'd take on in a charity boxing match and the dog move that Richard Kahui pulled on him.
