Shaquai Mitchell

Mitchell Given Chance

The 25-year-old Shaquai Mitchell story is far from over – with the comeback story about to take another enormous step after a barnstorming All Stars performance.

To be picked for the Indigenous All Stars for this year’s traditional clash against the Maori All Stars was never in Shaquai’s wildest dreams. It was a proud moment to showcase his culture on the big stage.

Shaquai Mitchell has transformed his body to the standard of today's free-flowing and fast pace NRL style, after once weighing in at 167kg as he battled depression and anxiety issues.

Shaquai Mitchell, 25, is now tipping the scales at below 120kgs just a few years removed from reportedly ballooning to 167kgs as he fought depression and anxiety.

Shaquai and Latrell were SG Ball teammates at the Roosters in 2014 when they won that competition together.
