Welcome to another episode of The Blind Side Podcast, I’m your host Nath Smith and today my guest is a NRL and roosters legend who is 2nd on their all time try scorers list and 6th all time in games played, today I have a chat with Shaun Kenny Dowall.
Shaun made the journey to Australia and the NRL by dropping out of school at 15 to work and save enough money to buy a plane ticket to get here in chase of his football career. With no contract offers he backed himself which lead to him playing 277 first grade games along with representing his Maori culture and country many times.
My chat with Shaun we talk about his career in detail and what it was like playing in 2 grand finals & winning a comp, what it was like playting for New Zealand and traveling the world.
We touch on some of the speed bumps in his career and the lack of truth reported by the media during those.
We talk about now living in the UK and how corona has effected him and the team and also what he has planned for after footy.
SKD is a straight out champion both on the field and off, I hope you enjoy our chat and get to see his blind side.
As always, please make sure you like and follow the show on Facebook, Instagram & Twitter and if you have enjoyed this episode or others, please make sure you leave me a review, I’d really appreciate it, thanks for listening and enjoy…
