Only on catch up for another couple of days but well worth a watch. It's about him joining a disability rugby league team at Warrington wolves. Puts the Meggan Harry furore in context. Must admit I teared up at parts of it.
It was a great program I watched it when it was on over Xmas and I found it brought a lump to my throat as well. Some amazing people involved in that. I also think Adam Hills is a great bloke (shame he is an Aussie) he does great work for those with disabilities - I usually forget he has only 1.5 legs He is also a great comedian - seen him live and he is very funny and never offensive anyone who hasnt seen it I agree totally with @Redhelen its well worth a watch
Started to watch it this morning and thought I would download it so that my good lady could watch it also. Very good program and looking forward to watching the rest of it later.
The programme was absolutely fantastic. Really really enjoyed it and it was had not to become fully invested in the concept. Not only does it show how a sport can be a fantastic form of therapy it shows how important it is to have people around you to pull you through the bad times. A friend of mine plays for the Wakefield PDRL team (cropped up on the documentary - he’s a big bugger, you can’t miss him). They played as a curtain raiser at Old Trafford before the Grand Final. Each team had a legend spot, wakeys was former Cronulla, NSW Captain and Australia front rower Paul Gallen. What an fabulous opportunity for those guys. Great concept!
