Saturday Sledge: Adam Mogg - They thought I couldn't play
On the Saturday Sledge ABC Sport's Zane Bojack spoke to Queensland Maroons Origin legend Adam Mogg who was branded "Adam Who?" by the New South Wales media when selected for his Origin debut in 2006. After scoring three tries in two games for the Maroons - Mogg was a major component of ending a three-series losing streak. His selection is a stark reminder of what inexperienced players can do with strong support around them with Gehemat Shibasaki also encountering criticism this week after his inclusion in the Qld team after just 45 NRL games. Other guests on the programme include NSW Waratahs fly-half Jack Bowen, tennis legend Roger Rasheed, Brisbane Lions mid-fielder Bruce Reville and NSW Bull-riding coach Lachy Richardson.
