This week on Kevie Walters Inside Ball, Kevie and Dobbo sit down with one of the toughest competitors to ever pull on a Broncos jersey, Brad Thorn. From growing up in Brisbane and playing footy at school, to earning his shot at the Broncos and turning himself into an absolute machine, Thorny opens up like never before on the mindset shift that changed his life. He tells the story of the moment his dad pulled him aside as a teenager and delivered a brutal truth… a conversation that lit a fire in him and shaped the competitor he became. Brad reflects on his NRL debut, his relationship with Wayne Bennett, and the powerful impact his father had on his journey, including why staying in Brisbane meant he got precious extra time with him before he passed away. The boys also dive into what it was like playing alongside legends like Kevie, Alfie and Petro, including some unreal behind-the-scenes yarns, big-game memories, and what made the Broncos culture so special. Thorny also speaks on his time in rugby union, the All Blacks, winning a World Cup, and the parallels between the two codes, before giving his honest thoughts on why he hasn’t returned to coaching yet, and whether that could change in the future. To top it off, Brad shares insights from his new book: “Champions Do Extra: Lessons Learned in Footy to Build a Winning Mindset”, packed with lessons on discipline, effort, and what it truly takes to succeed. A powerful, honest, and seriously inspiring chat with one of Queensland sport’s greatest competitors.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
