In episode 228, Max chats with Western Bulldogs Assistant Coach Daniel Pratt! Daniel takes us through his coaching trip to the US - spending time with the Cleveland Browns, Guardians, Cavs, Detroit Lions and Tigers - who’s lit up the track so far, and what the Dogs need to do to become a premiership team.

We dive into his journey: starting out under Dani Laidley at North Melbourne, getting delisted and watching Brisbane win a flag from the sidelines, returning to North, and the brutality of Laidley’s coaching - being told you’re dropped on Monday, then by Friday you’re suddenly training in the A-team.

Daniel opens up on his transition into coaching, what stood out during Hawthorn’s golden era, the heartbreak he experienced at West Coast before the 2018 premiership, and takes us inside the coaches box as Dom Sheed kicked the match-winning goal.

Plus, we chat lessons from Luke Beveridge, the standards at the Bulldogs, his new company he’s started alongside Matt Spangher, Pocket Mentor, and the conception behind it.

All this and much more in episode 228 of Sporting Max!
