Alex Johnston: The Man Chasing NRL’s Try-Scoring Record

Beyond the Field por David Mead

Notas del episodio

This conversation was recorded a few years ago, but I’ve updated the description because Alex Johnston is now just six tries away from breaking the all-time NRL try-scoring record — an incredible milestone.

Alex has already scored 130 tries in just 160 games, won a premiership in his rookie year, and represented both Australia and Papua New Guinea at international level. His strike rate is rare — and he's still going strong.

But this chat goes deeper than his stats. Alex opens up about the person behind the player: his competitive mindset as a kid, the hard work and extra training that shaped him, and why he values education just as much as sport. It was an inspiring and down-to-earth conversation with one of rugby league’s quiet legends. Hope you enjoy it.
