This week Brian and Harrison intro the show by covering all the
major topics in their lives and within the AFL, including; Brian's
weekend at the Telethon in Perth, Wayne Carey's podcast split with
Sam Newman, the latest Australian Sport Hall of Fame inductees, AFL
State of Origin & player hair testing, NBA kicks off, the White
House Press Secretary, and plenty more. Their guest this week
is one of the biggest names in Australian football, Kevin
Sheedy. The chat is packed full of footy history,
unique characters and plenty of stories from an
extraordinary career. They look back on the Tigers’ golden era
under Tommy Hafey, the characters around the club and what life was
really like behind the scenes. Sheeds reflects on his own playing
days, his competitive edge and some of the tricks and innovations
that helped make him such a unique figure in the game. The
conversation then turns to his remarkable coaching career, 27 years
at Essendon, 4x premierships and the challenge of knowing when it’s
time to move on. Sheeds shares stories from the Bombers’ glory
years, the decision to take on the challenge of building GWS from
the ground up, and the players and premierships that meant the most
to him. There’s also the story behind the creation of the Anzac Day
clash and Dreamtime at the ’G, his passion for Indigenous football
pathways, and his thoughts on how the game has changed as it’s
become more professional. Along the way, BT and Sheeds revisit some
of football’s great characters, the lessons of leadership and
whether there’s anything he would have done differently. A
brilliant trip through Australian football history with one of the
game’s great innovators. This Episode is brought to you by
