The Dropped Kick-Off 17 – Shedheads (with Richard Tombs)

The Dropped Kick-Off 17 – Shedheads (with Richard Tombs)

The Dropped Kick-Off returns for our final episode of the year, and we’ve got a beauty to bring our rugby coverage to a close for 2019.

This week, Nick was joined by Wallaby great Richard Tombs to discuss his rugby career, what rugby means to him, his transition out of the game, how the community got behind him after his spinal injury, and why rugby has a culture like no other sport. Even comes with a couple of cheeky comments about the 2016 Shute Shield Grand Final.

In addition, you can check out the amazing work Tombsy is doing with his foundation, Guns Out for Tombsy here, as well as his partnership with not-for-profit community group Rugby 1st.
