À propos de cet audio

The latest Western Force signing George Bridge is our guest this week and what a lad he is! From humble beginnings in Gisborne, to carving up for Canterbury, the Crusaders, and then going on to wear the black jersey on the biggest stage of all! But it hasn’t all been smooth sailing. George had his struggles moving down to Christchurch as a 17 year old, he had to deal with some brutal injuries – knees, pec tears, appendicitis, he had three surgeries in eight months! He even played a Super Rugby Final with a nasty vomit bug. Despite all that, he kept bouncing back and showing his class and always finishing of tries!


Some highlights for me in this one were..

Hearing why he made the leap from Gisborne to Christchurch,

The pathway he took to becoming an All Black,

The influence of Leon MacDonald,

The heartbreak of the 2019 World Cup semi-final,

Why he moved to France and how he found it

His next chapter with the Force,

And heaps more including all your questions.


George is someone who always took his opportunity on the field through work rate and the never give up attitude. Players loved playing with this man cause he would never let them down and he is a champion lad!
