Taller Than the Door: Curtley Ambrose Thomas & The Cheetahs’ Border Mission

About this episode

Curtley Ambrose Thomas discusses his experience as a tall rugby player and the upcoming SA Cup fixture for the Toyota Cheetahs.

What happens when your guest is physically taller than the architecture of your studio? This morning on Good Morning Breakfast, we were joined by towering Cheetahs lock Curtley Ambrose Thomas. Standing at a commanding 203cm, Curtley shares what it’s like navigating a world built for 2-metre door frames and carrying the name of a cricketing icon onto the rugby pitch. We also look ahead to this weekend’s SA Cup fixture as the Toyota Cheetahs travel to East London to take on the Border Bulldogs. With the playoffs in sight, we discuss the team’s "system-based" approach and their goal to pile on the tries this Saturday. OFM a proud Partner, Sponsor and Supporter of the Toyota Cheetahs!
