Description
Sam Matavasi is someone who certainly hasn't had the typical pathway to the top. In this episode we go through his incredible journey of being the young talent who's drinking and poor work ethic held him back from going professional out of school. To where he is now playing for Northampton in the English premiership and of course Fiji at this RWC.
Other things we discuss in this episode are...
The rise of Fiji at the Rugby World Cup An insight into the camp of everyones 2nd favourite team.
Growing up in Cornwell with his 2 brother Josh and Joel.
The devestating loss of his mother when aged 13 and how he eventually dealt with that.
His decision to join the Navy How he ended up in this pro rugby career.
His new Rum he has just launched with his brothers.
And heaps more.
Everyone I had spoken to about Sam spoke so highly of him as a lad and after this chat I can see why, great energy, good yarns and a heck of a journey.
