G’day and welcome back to the 6th episode of Harro’s Heroes. This week I was lucky enough to be joined by my favourite player of all time and one of the biggest reasons I support the Lions today, Jason Akermanis. Aker and I sat down and discussed his time at the lions, where he went on to become one of the most decorated players in the club’s history, winning 3 premierships, a Brownlow, multiple best and fairest, and was also leading goal kicker. He also went into depth about the controversy that followed him throughout his career both on the field for the lions and doggies, but also off field. Later, we discuss his life post footy, where he has started up his own crypto currency and his own real estate company. This is something I never thought would happen and I’m excited for you all to listen.

This week I had the pleasure of sitting down and chatting with Hawthorn captain and 2x premiership player Ben McEvoy. Ben takes us through his career playing for both St Kilda and the Hawks, where we played under two of the great coaches Ross Lyon and Alastair Clarkson. We also discuss his love for his farm and what the hawks are looking for improve on next season. Can’t wait for you’s to listen!

This week I was fortunate enough to chat to 200 game superstar from North Melbourne and one of my good mates Shaun Atley. Shaun goes into depth about his time at the Kangas, playing in Preliminary finals, playing under 3 different coaches, and a lot of funny stories about his time off field. Can’t wait for you all to listen!

This week I was fortunate enough to sit down and chat with not only one of the greatest Netballers of all time but one of the greatest Australian athletes of all time, Sharelle McMahon. Sharelle takes us through her journey from the small dairy community of Bamawm, to winning gold at the Commonwealth Games. She also talks about her career playing for the Melbourne Phoenix and Vixens, where she dominated the court. Sharelle has since gone into multiple roles in not only netball since retirement, but in the AFLW and Female Cricket in Victoria. Sharelle is truly an inspiration to young women around the country aspiring to become a professional athlete, and I can’t wait for you all to listen to her story.Rayzor Roofing: https://www.rayzorroofing.com

On this weeks episode, we are joined by former Port Adelaide midfielder, and current co-captain of the Essendon VFL side, Joe Atley. Joe has been a great mate of mine for a while now, and I can't thank him enough for coming onto the poddy. Joe and I chat about his early childhood, growing up in two regional towns, to then progressing into the talented footballer he is today. We also go into depth about his time struggling to break into the senior side, as well as the time he played against his older brother Shaun, and starting his carpentry career. Hope you all enjoy the episode, and a big thank you to our new sponsors 'Rayzor Roofing'. I'll leave the link for their contact info below. https://www.rayzorroofing.com/

My first guest is former AFL player, Morrison Medalist and 2008 GVFL premiership player Ash Watson. One of my heroes growing up playing footy, Ash and I sit out and talk about his early footy career, to then being picked up my North Melbourne as a young 17 year old. We got into depth about his playing days, such as players he’s played with along the journey, playing in one of the most memorable AFL games of all time, returning to his childhood club Rochester, how he got his nickname Turbo and much more. I loved this chat with Ash, and I know you will too.
