An illustrious football career beckoned – and was eventually achieved – but it was anything but smooth sailing. At one stage, football wasn’t something he even liked, let alone loved. It drove him away, tempted him back and then ignited a passion which saw him pursue his dream to become a professional at the Wellington Phoenix, where he went on to become the beating heart of New Zealand’s only professional football club. “Fully Committed” is the fascinating story of an ordinary kiwi bloke who overcame obstacles and setbacks both on and off the pitch to become an icon in New Zealand football. | ||
