About The Author

H.G Nelson

H.G. Nelson and colleague Roy Slaven presented This Sporting Life on Triple J for 22 years. Every weekend, this dynamic duo - who could score from anywhere on the paddock - blasted their way through the big issues of sport. H.G. Nelson is a man who is dedicated to balls and the pursuit thereof. He would be mortified if he was unable to take his place in an Ashes-bound first eleven or run on in a Grannie due to a lack of fitness. Along the way, as time and his strict training regime have permitted, H.G. Nelson has put on the guernsey for other television projects, including The Project, It’s a Knockout, Club Buggery, The Channel Nine Show, The Monday Dump, Roy & HG’s Spring Carnival, The Cream and The Memphis Trousers.
