Nick Riewoldt joins The Rushed Behind


Nick Riewoldt will join The Rushed Behind next Thursday for an exclusive interview.


The Rushed Behind's Chris Nice will sit down with the St Kilda champion at RSEA Park to discuss the extraordinary efforts of Maddie Riewoldt's Vision.


Founded in 2015 in honour of Riewoldt's late sister, Maddie Riewoldt's Vision seeks to find a cure to bone marrow failure syndrome (BMFS).


Maddie Riewoldt passed away following a five-year battle with aplastic anemia - a form of BMFS - at just 26 years of age.


BMFS is most common for those aged between 15-25, with only 50 per cent of those diagnosed coming out the other side.


The Round 15 clash between St Kilda and Richmond will mark the fourth iteration of Maddie's Match, which will raise much-needed awareness and funds to find a cure to the cruel disease.


St Kilda will trade out their customary red for purple in remembrance of Maddie, while fans can purchase Maddie Riewoldt's Vision merchandise to show their support and contribute to the cause.


The Rushed Behind's interview with Nick Riewoldt will air on Thursday June 27 at 6:30pm on Channel 31.
