“It’s the most powerful story I’ve encountered in over 35 years of Rugby League.”

That’s what Ray Hadley says about up and coming NRL player Braidon Burns.

The 22-year-old joined Ray in the studio after recently sharing his story of overcoming incredible personal adversity to forge a life as a professional athlete.

The South Sydney Rabbitohs player shares even more about the struggles he’s faced and what he’s aiming to achieve in the future.

“I haven’t looked that far ahead… but I just want kids to believe that they can do what I’ve done,” says Burns.

And Ray believes that’s going to be a great deal, on and off the field.
