PRL Book Club returns with the fascinating story of the life and times of Olsen Filipaina. Author Patrick Skene joins Johnno to step through the eventful career of an international Rugby League titan. More than a simple Rugby League biography, The Big O places Olsen's life and career in the context of changing societies across both sides of the Tasman, and explains how Olsen's struggle helped pave the way for generations of Maori and Pasifika to ply their trade in Australian Rugby League.
