Marty Taupau - Kevie Walters Inside Ball

This week on Kevie Walters Inside Ball, Kevie sits down with one of the game’s most powerful and proud front rowers, Marty Taupau. From his early days discovering what a kebab was, to becoming a feared enforcer at the top level, Marty shares the journey that shaped him, both on and off the field. He opens up about his heritage, what it meant to represent Samoa and New Zealand, and the pride that came with giving back to his community, even becoming an official Samoan chief in 2024. There’s also no shortage of footy stories, rom wild collisions, on-field battles with the game’s toughest blokes, to his hair being ripped out during an Anzac Test and nearly finishing it in the carpark. A powerful, honest, and at times hilarious chat with one of the great modern front rowers.We are also excited to be partnering with Kratzmann Caravans!
