Description
Fighting to Speak reveals the journey of a miner's son with a stutter who succeeded to play rugby at the highest level and defeat his demons.
'We were all aware about Mark's stammer but it didn't make any difference to me. He is a top bloke and a great rugby player, and to me that's perfection.' Rowland Phillips;'People who didn't know Mark thought he was just an aggressive thug - but to those who know him, he is a kind-hearted, gentle and compassionate man.' Byron Hayward;'I have nothing but the highest respect for Mark. His stammer did not make life easy for him and challenged his mental health, but his immense strength of character saw him beat his demons and win his battles.' Jim Mills
