Glenn Bunny - Director Development, Planning and Regulation
At the age of 20, Glenn Bunny climbed into bed after getting the phone call he’d been dreaming of and working tirelessly for.
He was going to tour Argentina as a professional rugby player.
Winning selection for legendary Super Rugby Club the Canterbury Crusaders was a major leap forward in his professional rugby career.
The start of something really big.
He’d been training under New Zealand’s best and there were whispers that, with more hard work and a dash of good fortune, he may even be mentioned at the All Blacks selection table.
It must’ve been hard to sleep that night.
It must’ve been even harder to sleep the next night.
Glenn blew his knee out in a club game the following day, quit university to devote nine months to intensive rehabilitation in a desperate bid make it back onto the pitch and rekindle his hopes.
He would last only minutes in his comeback match, only to look down and see a broken ankle and his All Black dreams shattered.
Glenn Bunny is now Lake Macquarie City Council’s Director of Development, Planning and Regulation, overseeing 150 staff and close to 1.5 billion dollars of development applications every year.
He sits down with Aaron Kearney in this illuminating and inspiring first episode of the Lake Mac Way.
