Brayden Mitchell- What a Lad

Everyone who has played with Brayden Mitchell will testify that he is one of the greatest lads to play the game, he was a champion team mate on and off the field, who loved a good time and could always back it up when on the pitch. Some of the stories and reflections that the man they call Scratcher has in this episode were incredible to hear. He was so honest, held back nothing and can tell a seriously good yarn!Some bits that stood out for me in this one were...How hard the struggle of retiring from rugby due to a neck injury was for himHis relationship with gambling throughout his careerGetting his first contract straight out of school.Dealing with a lack of confidence in himself His relationship with alcohol during his career and during the transition post footyDealing with injuries and his regret in how he attacked his rehabBecoming the Stags captain and the pressure involved with thatAnd honestly some of the best behind the scene stories of a professional rugby player you will hear.I've got so much time for Scratcher, just a champion human who played the game for enjoyment and he certainly did that!
