This episode, NSW legend Laurie Daley drops in to talk all things footy, Origin and leadership. From backyard brawls with cousins to captaining the Blues, Laurie reflects on what shaped his footy IQ and passion for the game. He opens up about being asked by Gus Gould to lead NSW, how Ricky Stuart and Bradley Clyde made him better, and what Joey Johns had that no one else did. With Origin around the corner, Laurie gives his honest thoughts on selection, effort, and form — who’s knocking on the door, how he approaches the halves pairing, and why some players thrive in the Origin cauldron. Plus, insight into his coaching philosophy in 2024 and the pressure that comes with wearing the sky blue.
