#42 David Schwarz

This week another I have an incredible guest with an incredible story, David “The OX” Schwarz. David is a former AFL footballer for the Melbourne Football Club. He played 173 games and kicked 244 goals and was a genuine superstar! At 20 years of age he took more marks than Wayne Carey in a year and was on the verge of exploding into one of the games greats, before unfortunately being struck down with 3 ACL injuries in 12 months! Yes 3 ACLs in 12 months! After his first knee reconstruction he was back playing football again just after 14 weeks on the sidelines, which is incredible when in this day and age its a 10-12 month injury. Apart from his AFL career the Ox has had a lot of ups from seeing his father murdered in front of him and battling a gambling addiction that saw him lose an estimated 5 million dollars over his career. Now back on his feet and thriving in the media he celebrates 15 years off gambling and has a lot of lessons for us to learn from. It was a such powerful chat and I really hope you get out of it as much as I did. If you enjoy the show, please follow/subscribe and leave a review!
