Description
This week Brian and Harrison kick things off with some footy chat; recording before the week's action they talk about Mac Andrew's monster deal, the Bulldogs who want out, Hawthorn's celebration in week 1 of Finals, the Mitch Robinson / Lions situation and Brian recalls one of the biggest on-field dust ups during his time playing. They then chat about the opening of the NFL season, thoughts on Tom Brady commentating and we get the full run-down on the life of BTs Channel Seven suits of all things! Next, they are joined by a pioneer of Women’s Football in Australia, Daisy Pearce. Daisy grew up a country girl in the Vic High County (Wandiligong to be specific), there are few that have done more for women's sport in Australia in such a short time than Daisy, she has been at the forefront of the fast-expanding AFLW since its launch on the national stage in 2016, her resume is unmatched; Premiership captain of the Melbourne Football Club, 3x club Best & Fairest, 3x All-Australian, 4x AFLW best captain, not to mention the exemplary CV in the VFLW before the national league started. Off the field, she has been a leading media personality, a development coach with Geelong men's program, a practicing mid-wife, mother of twins, and now the head coach of the West Coast Eagles's W team. Beyond of the impressive surface of Daisy's achievements is the person and the example she sets for our community. She is one of the most humble and inspiring people we have ever met. She is able to connect and break-down barriers through her innate relatability, vulnerability and passion for the things and people she cares about. We're honoured to have Daisy on the podcast and we hope you enjoy our chat with this legend.
