In this episode of The Perfect 10, we sit down with Scott Sattler, the man immortalised by one of the most iconic tackles in NRL history. That single moment in the 2003 Grand Final didn’t just secure the win; it created a legend. Scott takes us through the lead-up, the split-second decision-making, and the life-changing impact of that tackle, reflecting on how it cemented his legacy and transformed his journey on and off the field.
Scott opens up about his unique upbringing, raised in pubs on the Gold Coast, where his legendary dad John kept the peace, often by dishing out his own brand of justice. Reflecting on his father’s unmatched leadership on and off the field, Scott shares insights into the qualities that shaped him, as well as stories of his heroes from the iconic Souths team of the ’60s and ’70s, including the 14th Immortal Ron Coote.
Scott has forged a remarkable career off the field, blending his passion for sport with a keen eye for business. He’s the host of a national radio program on the SEN – Sports Entertainment Network, where his insights continue to shape the conversation. Beyond broadcasting, Scott’s private investigation business has thrived for decades, a testament to his tenacity and skill. Now, he’s embarking on a new venture, Project One3, dedicated to negotiating player contracts and helping the next generation build a foundation for success.
