KURTLEY: MY STORY
THURSDAY 15 DECEMBER
EXCLUSIVE FEATURE DOCUMENTARY ON STAN SPORT FROM 7:00PM AEDT
Kurtley: My Story is a confronting, deep dive into the life of Wallabies star Kurtley Beale.
The hour-long documentary chronicles the rise of a teenager who burst onto the scene and made his way into the Wallabies camp at just 17 years old and the success that followed. In a career spanning nearly two decades, Beale has a bounty of stories to tell – from the sneaky pact that sealed his debut to his undoing brought about by alcohol abuse.
“I made a bit of a porkchop of myself and absolutely deserved every sanction and everything like that,” he recounted. “It was the time there where things weren’t going right for me. I had to get help.” “You think as a young kid you know everything, right?” “I always see it as learnings. It’s a time for growth and I found that period really helpful because it was all about reconnecting with my identity because I lost it.”
Now 33 years old, the Wallabies star has his blinkers on and is in search of one thing – contesting the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France for Australia. Beale has reunited with his long-time friend Darren Coleman, who will coach the Sydneysider on his return to Super Rugby with the Waratahs. “I feel like I’ve still got a lot to give to the game, a lot to my teammates, and I think we talk about experience, experience goes a long way.” “I feel like I have that in spades in terms of knowledge of teams or players all over the world. I think I could be valuable in that area.”
Kurtley: My Story is available exclusively on Stan Sport from 15 December.
