Maroons legend Kerrod Walters never thought he'd suffer a heart attack at 45 - everyone should get a stress test

At 45, the former Queensland State of Origin hooker was fighting fit. He doesn't smoke. Eats right. Rarely drinks. And last month, when golden oldies were being summoned for a Legends of League charity game, Walters, his passion for football undiminished, gladly volunteered.Put simply, Walters never saw his heart attack coming. One moment, he was relaxing at home watching the NRL clash between South Sydney and North Queensland. The next, he was being rushed to Caloundra hospital after having dizzy spells and pain in his right chest as he rose to go to the bathroom.
