Show Notes
This week on Bros and Cons, we sit down with one of the most controversial, outspoken, and legendary names in rugby league – John Hopoate. From his “Bad Boy” reputation to being a proud father of 11, John opens up like never before.
We talk challenges on and off the field, raising a family that’s made history in the NRL, life in the 21 District, and the headlines that shaped his career. John gets real about his sons, the infamous “finger incident,” his love for Samoa and Tonga, and what Father’s Day means to him.
This is raw, unfiltered, and one of our most powerful episodes yet.
