NRL Interviews Pt 1: Kevin Campion

Posted by Ricky on May 22, 2017 at 7:20am

If you were in the cupboard last night and some nights previous, you would know that I am starting a series of interviews with former players about their careers, their experiences and their life post-footy.

I'm happy to say that the first interview is done and dusted, with former hardman and 6-team veteran Kevin Campion the first cab off the rank.

Hopefully, you guys read it and enjoy, and let me know what you think.

    Worked with Ivan Cleary as trainer when coaching Warriors. The fittest man I have ever seen. Lives on GC last I heard. Nice guy.

      Yeah, I asked him about what he was doing post-footy - he's working with the Tweed Heads Seagulls as a mentor.

      Thanks, Mick.

      100%. 

      Tough as nails in his day and a good forward to boot.

    Thanks, Fongy. 

    Hard to do as Paul Carige isn't on Twitter and so I have no means of contacting him.

      Would you be on social media under your real name if you were him ?
      • Ricky > Wizardssleeves official receipts May 22, 2017 at 1:46pm

        Lol, probably not, Wiz. 

        Can't blame him at all.

          You know who I'd like to see interviewed , Peter Johnstone . Man could that guy whack a bloke .
          • Ricky > Wizardssleeves official receipts May 22, 2017 at 2:45pm

            He could, Wiz. 

            Some good archived footage on Johnstone. Unfortunately, not on Twitter, so no means of contact.

    He was indeed, Brett. 

    He did win a premiership in his day, so that much was deserved.
