Jesse Ramien, the talented Cronulla centre, reflects on his journey to becoming a professional rugby league player as he watches young teenagers train.
It brings back memories of his own struggles as a young father, working as a landscaper in Western Sydney to support his newborn baby.
Now, nine years later, his daughter LaSharn, and soon-to-be-born baby boy, will be in the stands cheering him on this Father's Day as the Sharks take on the Raiders in a crucial match.
Amidst the cacophony of passionate supporters and the pressure of finals football, Ramien will take a moment on Sunday to appreciate both his roles as a father and a player, and how much he has achieved in both.
