#312 - Ben Graham - From Geelong to the Super Bowl & the Wild Stories Between

Ben Graham is a former NFL Punter who was the first Australian to play in a Super Bowl. He captained the New York Jets & Arizona Cardinals as well as representing New Orleans & Detroit across his 8 years in the U.S. Prior to that, he played 219 games for Geelong in the AFL and captained them. 

It was great for Ben to join us in the studio and hear about his amazing career. 

Ben is an absolute trailblazer and is about to share with you how the risk he took of leaving his AFL career behind to pursue the NFL paid off and ultimately led to a Super Bowl. 

We hear about the brutality of being cut, the pressure of the NFL and the crazy speed in which you can switch teams. 

Ben shares his incredible experience in New York including cameoing on Sesame Street, ringing the Wall St Bell and the day he met John McEnroe. Plus, how he became captain and the challenges that came with it. 

You'll hear the unbelievable story of his one game in London for New Orleans, what Super Bowl week (and day) is like and the huge names he met along the way. 

And for the AFL fans, we of course cover playing with Ablett Senior AND Junior, THAT longest kick, Grand Finals and the famous Bomber Thompson quote when Ben decided to leave. 

This one is fascinating and has so much in it...you're going to love it. 

Enjoy the man who did it across two codes, Ben Graham!
