One of the most exciting wingers in the NRL, the Cronulla Sharks’ Ronaldo Mulitalo has made a name for himself through his try scoring acrobatics and a passion on the field that sometimes boils over and gets under his opponents skin. 

Off the field, he’s larger than life! A true extrovert that describes himself as someone who gets his energy from being around his teammates and having a good time. 

But Ronny’s path to his NRL dream has been anything but smooth and easy. Growing up in South Auckland before moving with his family to Queensland for a better life, Ronny spent some of his childhood homeless and sleeping in the leaky garage of a family friend's home. There were dark times and plenty of uncertainties but it was the fearlessness and strength of his Mum which was the guiding light for Ronny and his siblings through it all. 

This episode was recorded on the lands of the Dharawal people, we pay our respects to their elders past and present and acknowledge their continued connection to that country. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land.
