About this episode

In 2006, the rugby league world stopped for a moment when tempers flared and fists flew between Kangaroos enforcer Willie Mason and Great Britain powerhouse Stuart Fielden during a fiery international test at the Sydney Football Stadium. Now, for the first time in 19 years, the two men sit face-to-face to revisit the tackle, the punch, the headlines and everything that came after. This unfiltered conversation dives into the truth behind the infamous clash, the personal and professional fallout and whether time really heals all wounds.
