273: Beau Ryan (Player Profile)

Few athletes have made the leap from the footy to tv and the media as seamlessly as Beau Ryan.

After carving out his successful NRL career with the Wests Tigers and Cronulla Sharks, Beau's natural wit and infectious personality turned guest spots on The Footy Show into the launchpad for one of Australia's most successful media careers, leading to hosting roles on The Amazing Race Australia, Gladiators and now dominating Triple M Breakfast.

Before next week's full conversation, Beau jumps into the Player Profile, including why Nathan Buckley is someone he'd "take a bullet for", the greatest athlete of all time in his eyes, and the players who left the biggest mark on his rugby league journey.

Funny, heartfelt and unmistakably Beau, it's the perfect way to get pumped for the full story!

Beau co-hosts the Triple M Breakfast show on 104.9 Triple M Sydney alongside Aaron "Woodsy" Woods and Cat Lynch. You can catch the show live every weekday morning from 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM, or listen to the podcast on the LiSTNR App.
