Terry ‘Tuck’ Waldron has the most incredible sporting life. Now known as much for his work off the field than on it. Tuck Waldron played at Claremont and South Adelaide, but you might know him for his 16 years in Politics or his time at the WACA. He is also a leader in the mental health space and speaks passionately about the importance of managing your mental and emotional wellbeing, particularly for men in regional areas.
