"Well I don't want to be a girl then", Karina Brown (Part A)

On Her Game with Sam Squiers

In Part A, outspoken NRLW star Karina Brown speaks to Sam Squiers about her life in rugby league.

As a young girl she had to convince teachers to let her play with the boys (4:50), as a young woman she had to find a league that would let her tackle other women and now she's trying to make the world a more inclusive place.

If that wasn't enough, she also address the Manly boycott saga and doesn't pull any punches! (38:25). Part B will be available on Saturday, August 6.
