Where Do We Begin?

Where Do We Begin when describing A-League royalty Jade North? The iconic defender turned out for the Socceroos 41 times, captained the side, and won a load of trophies. But he's not just a legendary defender; he's also a legendary guy. He's used his experiences with mental illness to advocate for mental health awareness, and really opened up to us in this episode. We shouldn't spoil too much in the description though, as this is a chat that needs you to listen to it.

Where Do We Begin when describing breathtaking Brazilian Gui Finkler? He's one of the greatest players in Melbourne Victory history and played in perhaps the best A-League team of all time. We talk through Grand Final glory, peak AAMI Park atmospheres and get the truth about a couple of controversial departures, but also get deep into his fascinating life and career pre-Australia. Whether you're a huge A-League fan or care less about it than the mainstream media, you'll be sure to fall in love with Gui and his story.

A member of the famed Oarsome Foursome, Ginn took home a medal in each of his four Olympics (three gold) and is an all-time great of the sport.

This episode is jam-packed with great stories and good laughs, so what are you waiting for? Tune in!

Where Do We Begin when describing junior Geelong jet Max Holmes? In our last episode of the series until October, Max, one of the fastest players out of the 2020 Draft, chats running sessions with St Kilda’s Brad Hill in the off-season, being told the Cats wouldn't draft him, and a surreal ice bath experience. We might just have saved the best for last - check it out!

We'll be back to normal episodes next Monday and if I were you, I'd rather miss my own wedding than next week's episode. It's big.

Where Do We Begin when describing St Kilda's tall teenage talent Matthew Allison? Blessed with great footy genes, versatility, endurance and elite podcast question-answering, Saints fans should be extremely excited for what's to come from Matt. We talk skinny cappuccinos, u12 footy rivalries, his top mentors at the club, life philosophies, and a whole lot more with 2020's pick #26. He's been flying on the track in preseason and keeps up his good form in this chat, so tune in!

Where Do We Begin when describing wonderful wingman Ryan Angwin? One of the best runners in the Class of 2020, Ryan is blessed with not only elite endurance and skills, but also great music taste - you will not find a bigger Taylor Swift fan in the southern hemisphere than last year's pick 18. If he isn’t tapping his toes to T Swizzle, he’s probably playing a bit of NBA 2K, or maybe even AFL footy for GWS. So, keep doing what you're doing, but whack on your headphones to listen to this cracker of an episode while you do it!

Where Do We Begin when describing Fremantle's future fantastic forward Joel Western? There are few 18-year-olds with a bigger drive to become the best player they can than the young West Aussie who was born in the perfect state. Joel talks us through becoming more ruthless, the book that's become the secret weapon in improving the mental side of his game, being mentored by the great Michael Walters, and a whole lot more. You simply cannot miss this one.
