Planning ahead: Malcolm O'Kelly talks life after retirement

WHEN Malcolm O’Kelly, 40, retired from international rugby in 2010, he had no clear career plans in place.

“You are very driven and ambitious in what you were doing. When you come out, the structure is no longer there so, although you can be very disciplined, you can find yourself a little bit lost in terms of where you go. I think you have to be patient with yourself,” he says.

“I decided that I would give myself a year before I would start asking myself where am I going.”
