Legendary rugby league enforcer Mark 'Spudd' Carroll has released a book of his life story, with some new tales to be told of his life growing up as a league-mad Western Sydney kid to swanning around Hollywood rubbing shoulders with superstars.

Efron s coastal enclave was dubbed Hollywood 2.0 in late 2020 thanks to the number of Tinseltown stars who are either enjoying vacations in the region, or settled there permanently.
Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg, Zac Efron and Chris Hemsworth are living in NSW and in a new ad, Tooheys asked the quartet to pledge their allegiance to the Blues in exchange for a carton of beer.
