S9 Ep151: Stephen 'Beaver' Donald - World Cup Special - How Kicking The Winning Points In The WC Final Changed His Life! - a podcast by Archie Curzons & Freddy Clode

We're honoured to be joined by a legend of the game in Stephen Donaldson, a man who famously kicked the winning points in the 2011 World Cup Final, having been called up to the squad a few days prior. Beaver had been dropped by the All Blacks for the World Cup and so decided to go on a 3 months long piss up and fishing trip across NZ, where he put on a lot of weight and decided to turn his back on watching or following the World Cup. But one evening he returned from the river, drunk as always, and found a missed call from the NZ manager, they'd lost both Dan Carter and the other 2 reserve fly halfs to injury and he was being called into the WC squad for the final. He ends up kicking the winning points in that final and off the back of it has had a feature length movie made about his life 'The Kick', got countless huge sponsorship deals, his own radio show, tv documentaries and the rest. This is his incredible story.
