Darius Boyd
This week’s episode shifts focus from AFL banter to the world of NRL (National Rugby League), featuring one of its standout athletes – Darius Boyd, renowned for his versatility across multiple positions for the Brisbane Broncos. With international representation and Queensland State of Origin appearances under his belt, Boyd captained the Brisbane Broncos from 2017 to 2019 and boasts a decorated 15-year career, including 2 NRL Grand Final victories.
However, the episode takes a poignant turn, delving into Boyd’s humble beginnings, where financial struggles were a reality even as basic as affording bus fare home. Raised by his mother and later his grandmother at just 15, Boyd’s journey navigates from tight budgets to sudden financial abundance at 18.
