Welcome to the FOGS Queenslander Podcast Episode 43!
Featuring FOG #77 Mark Hohn
Hosted by Mark Braybrook

In this episode, we’re joined by tough-as-nails front-rower Mark Hohn, a no-nonsense forward who carved out a gritty career through the '80s and '90s in both Australia and the UK.

Born in Pittsworth, Queensland, Hohn made his mark with the Brisbane Broncos, where he played over 100 games, including during the club’s early years of success. He also featured for Fortitude Valley, South Queensland Crushers, and England’s Hunslet, showing his trademark toughness at every level.

A proud Queenslander, Hohn wore the Maroons jersey nine times between 1993 and 1995, and capped off his representative career with a Test appearance for Australia in 1994.

In this episode, Mark reflects on:
• The raw, physical era of forward play during his time
• His years with the Broncos during their foundation and rise
• Representing Queensland and Australia in the mid-90s
• The passion, pride, and pain of Origin football
• His thoughts on the evolution of the modern game

A genuine enforcer with a deep respect for the jersey, Hohn’s story is one of resilience, loyalty, and quiet leadership.

Featuring FOG #121 Kevin Campion
Hosted by Mark Braybrook

In this episode, Kevin Campion joins Mark Braybrook to reflect on a rugged and remarkable rugby league journey that took him across six clubs, two representative jerseys, and one of the toughest forward careers of his era.

Born in Sarina, Queensland, Campion was a hard-nosed forward who brought grit and leadership to every team he played for — including stints with the Gold Coast Seagulls, St George, Adelaide Rams, Brisbane Broncos, New Zealand Warriors, and North Queensland Cowboys.

He played over 240 top-grade games, appeared in four State of Origin matches for Queensland, and even represented Ireland at the 2000 Rugby League World Cup.

In this episode, Kevin shares:

• Stories from premiership success with the Broncos
• His leadership role in the Warriors’ rise to the 2002 Grand Final
• What Origin meant to him and how it compares to club footy
• The toughness required to survive over a decade in the NRL
• His reflections on loyalty, team culture, and life after footy

This is an episode full of honesty, resilience, and the kind of stories only a player like Campion can tell.
