79. JULIA ROBINSON

Rugby league star Julia Robinson has been a lightning rod for public opinion in her short but illustrious rugby league career so far.

She sat down with Sam Squiers to explain how she found the sport quite late in life and what it’s like having an army lifer for a mum (5:42)!

Julia then explains how she was caught in a social media firestorm simply because she has some very useful muscles (21:16).

When you get such vocal support from Sally Pearson and Libby Trickett you know you’re doing something special and the #showyourmuslces campaign (26:03) that ensued showed how a storm of positivity can sometimes erupt from the most unlikely places.
