About this listen

Join host Dennis McQuillan as he sits down with amateur athletes from every corner of sport, digging into the moments that shaped them - both the heroic and the downright ridiculous.

Each episode dives into their sporting history: the big wins, the brutal losses, and the unforgettable on-field chaos that only true amateurs can deliver. But it doesn’t stop there. Dennis also uncovers the off-field shenanigans - late-night stories, friendships forged in madness, and the kind of antics that never make the highlight reel.

Raw, real, and always entertaining, Bloody Amateurs celebrates the passion, humour, and heart of grassroots sport - one storyteller at a time.

    Amateur Rugby League Is Different… Brinko Explains Why | Bloody Amateurs
    Jan 21 2026

    Welcome to Bloody Amateurs — the podcast that celebrates the legends, the lunatics, and the lords of amateur sport. Your host is Dennis McQuillan: the big hits, the bad decisions, and the even worse stories that somehow get better every year.

    Today’s guest is a man who’s done it all — tackles he probably shouldn’t have made, nights he definitely shouldn’t remember, and a career that still gets talked about in sheds up and down the country. We are joined by Alan “Brinko” Brinksman. We’re diving into his rugby league journey, reliving the glory days, the near-deaths, and the absolute nonsense that only amateur rugby can produce.

    Expect laughs, honesty, and a few stories that might never make it past the team WhatsApp again. This is Bloody Amateurs — let’s get into it. 🏉
