Ashton Sims. From humble beginnings, to NRL star forward, to RL administrator

Ashton Sims boasts an imposing record, having played 368 professional games of rugby league.

Sims represented five clubs - St George Illawarra, Brisbane, North Queensland, Warrington and Toronto Canada during a 17 year career.

He debuted as an 18 year old, played for Country and Fiji and was regarded a hard working and imposing forward with a great off-load.

In this episode of Chiming In, Sims shares stories of his upbringing, how former Australian great Craig Young befriended and mentored him as a teenager, how Mick Cronin showed him the right path to follow in life and how he made countless friends throughout his journey.

Sims is today making a name for himself as a rugby league administrator and his best days in league might still be ahead of him.
