    Episode 1: James "Jammer" Graham: The person behind the competitor.

    The inaugural physiospill pod was one that was fitting.....and one that could have gone on way longer too!  James "Jammer" Graham takes us through his learnings, decision making and outlook on both past and present as a rugby league player, pundit, ambassador, husband and father.  This is not one to be missed for sure.  It was always destined to be great, or was it coincidence?!  We hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
