Yaama and welcome to our brand new podcast “A Cuppa and A Yarn” brought to you by the New South Wales Aboriginal Land Council. Our first guest is the inspiring doyen of Australian rugby union through a golden era in the early 80’s when the Wallabies were just about unbeatable. His name is Mark Ella and in many ways his reputation speaks for itself. He captained the Wallabies 10 times and most agreed he was the World’s best player of his generation. Mark Ella’s led an interesting life but never lost his sense of community and his connection to his mob.
Mark talks with host Michelle Aleksandrovics-Lovegrove about the joys of being 1 of 12 children, his lifelong passion for fishing, breakneck times at Randwick Rugby Club, his record-breaking Grand Slam and his assessment of Australian Rugby heading into the 2019 Rugby World Cup in Japan.
