No Bollocks with Matt Haycox

Mic Drop #4: "They Told Me I'd Never Play Again – I Proved Them Wrong."


Listen Later

In these ‘Mic Drops,’ I’ll be spotlighting my favourite, most impactful moments from past episodes of No Bollocks with Matt Haycox. These are the moments that hit hardest, offer the most value, and deserve to be heard again.

From a devastating knee injury to career-threatening surgeries and months in a wheelchair, this is the raw, unfiltered truth about what it takes to fight back. The mental battles, the isolation, the fake friends who disappeared, and the few real ones who stayed. But most importantly—the mindset that turned "You’ll never play again" into "Watch me."

If you’ve ever faced setbacks, doubted yourself, or needed a reminder of what resilience really looks like—this episode is for you.
