Join Bevo on this episode of our new series of Backyard Legends with Bevo as he chats with Rudi Mandemaker.
During his prime, Rudi was one of the most dominant full forwards in the SANFL and will go down as one of the absolute greats to play for the Central Districts Football Club.
He finished with 475 goals from his 141 games.He was the leading goal scorer in the SANFL in 1989 with 93 goals and of his seven seasons with Centrals, he topped their goal kicking on six occasions.
On our chat we talked about Rudi’s stroke scare and how he’s recovering from it, his childhood and the mischief him and his mates got up to, what life was like growing up in Poowong in Victoria and how he got the passion to play Aussie Rules despite coming from a Dutch background!
Thanks so much to Rory for his time and the team at Wavebreaker and Podbooth for helping with producing the episode.
Thanks also to Garden Master Sheds and Aussie Rules Global for their generous support in sponsoring Backyard Legends with Bevo for the entire first season.
