Quick tap with Ben-Jason Dixon

I really enjoy defence, I think I would be a defensive coach if I had to specialise in anything. I enjoy tackling because it is an area of contact dominance and one where I have had some success. I carry OK, but I think I get more contact dominance through tackling. It is such an awesome feeling when you dominate contact, it is difficult to describe but it is almost like the dopamine addiction that some people get from social media. Contact dominance is a bit of an addiction I think.

Can you explain what exactly you studied and what field you would like to explore as a career after rugby? I studied industrial engineering, which is basically engineering and business combined. Engineering entails solving problems creatively using mathematics, programming and physics, and industrial engineering uses these disciplines to improve systems in business. I like puzzles and industrial engineering work is a lot like solving a puzzle as it involves getting to the root of a problem and coming up with a creative solution.
