Welcome to the FOGS Queenslander Podcast Episode 31!
In this episode, our host Mark Braybrook is joined by FOG #73 Steve Walters, one of the greatest hookers in Rugby League history. Known as "Boxhead", Steve was a cornerstone of the Canberra Raiders' dominance in the late 1980s and 1990s, playing a pivotal role in the club’s first three premiership victories.
Born in Rockhampton, Queensland, Steve’s career was defined by toughness, skill, and leadership. He played 299 first-grade games, the majority with the Canberra Raiders, before finishing his career with the North Queensland Cowboys and Newcastle Knights.
On the representative stage, Steve was a key figure for the Maroons, making 14 State of Origin appearances from 1990 to 1996. He also proudly wore the green and gold of Australia, representing the Kangaroos in 15 international matches. In 1997, he featured in both the Queensland and Australian Super League teams.
In this episode, Steve reflects on his illustrious career, sharing insights from the Raiders' golden era, his time in the Queensland jersey, and what it meant to play alongside legends—including his brothers Kerrod and Kevin Walters.
