This one has it all — Scott Waldrom, one of the most explosive loose forwards to play the game, jumps on for an absolute ripper of a chat and does not hold back. From growing up as a rugby super fan idolising his hero’s to playing with legends like Jonah Lomu, Jerry Collins, Christian Cullen and Justin Marshall, to getting dropped from Sevens after a scrap in Lower Hutt, Scooters career is full of highs, lows, and unreal yarns.


We talk about:

  • His early days which involved plenty of battles with younger brother Thomas Waldrom
  • Debuting with Jonah Lomu and being starstruck in training
  • Getting told he was too small for NPC and proving everyone wrong
  • National Nude Day and bar vouchers 
  • Being told his foot injury meant his rugby career was over — and then making it back
  • Getting named in the All Blacks squad and wondering if he belonged
  • The brutal truth about injuries, pressure, drinking culture, and bouncing back
  • Coaching with the NZ Sevens, a scary health scare and life after footy


Honest, hilarious, and full of insight — this one’s got everything. A top man with a stack of stories. Scooter Waldrom is an absolute lad!
