Episode Synopsis

Usually at this point I would try to write a witty or informative synopsis to breakdown this episode of The Tip Sheet. That task is particularly difficult this week after Sixties and myself were left pinching ourselves following an incredible discussion with one of the most beloved figures of rugby league in Yvonne Sampson.

Yvonne, who has crossed paths with Sixties and myself over the years, joins The Tip Sheet to talk about the brilliant career she has forged in rugby league, the hilarious and amazing identities she has met along the way and how she and others have changed the landscape for the next generation of young ladies who share the same passion she does. Those are my entirely my words by the by, Yvonne is far too humble to ever take such deserved credit.

It is the most enjoyable podcast we have ever done bar none and that is not something we say lightly. Sixties and myself have had the good fortune to interview Parramatta legends like Brett Kenny and Steve Ella while we also have the extremely rare privilege to invite the likes of Joey Grima and Bernie Gurr onto the show. This is the new gold standard.

I hope you all enjoy this podcast as much as we did because it really isn't hard to see how Yvonne Sampson rose to such prominence in the code given the way she carries herself as both a fan of the game and one of the leading figures in the media.

Sixties, myself and TCT are incredibly thankful to Yvonne for taking a lengthy chunk out of her extremely busy day to talk to us but the end result, I feel at least, is amazing.
