In this episode, Adam opens up about his incredible journey—from his early days in rugby to becoming one of the most capped Wallabies of all time. He reflects on the highs and lows of playing on the world stage, including his appearances in three Rugby World Cups, his time with the Waratahs and overseas stints in France and Japan, and the evolution of the game over the years. With trademark honesty and humour, Adam shares unforgettable stories from the locker room, tales of triumph and challenge, and what rugby has taught him on and off the field.
