In this episode of Chiming In, Simmons talks passionately about his health battles, his love for rugby league and those he has shared his journey with.
But it’s his funny life stories which will have you chuckling as Simmons recalls a career well done.

Wes Heritage is a former Australian Rules footballer who gave the game away to focus on the family business - burying people.

Death awaits us all yet we never really explore the funeral process until it’s bestowed upon us.

Peter O’Sullivan is regarded the NRL’s premier recruitment manager having successfully shaped the playing rosters of teams like the Dragons, Roosters, Storm, Warriors and Knights over many years.
He was also responsible for putting together the Dolphins inaugural team in 2023 - which, amazingly, less than four seasons later, is now considered a genuine premiership contender.
So what does a recruitment manager do and how does he identify and procure talent.
O’Sullivan is credited with unearthing and launching the careers of players such as Greg Inglis, Latrell Mitchel, Israel Folau, Roger Tuivasa-Scheck and many, many more. He also plays a key role in the salary cap management of his club.
Today O’Sullivan is an integral part of the Newcastle Knights system and was the man responsible for luring Dylan Brown away from Parramatta in sensational circumstances.
In this episode of Chiming In, you are given a birds’ eye view into the tricks of the recruitment manager’s trade - how they identify players, entice them to switch clubs and build powerful playing rosters.
With new teams Perth and Papua New Guinea on the horizon, no-one is better qualified than O’Sullivan to comment on how their new look rosters are shaping up.
