Welcome back to In the Head of a Country Bloke. Today, I’m so grateful to have Lachie Neale back on the podcast for a bit of a follow-up chat.
We first sat down in 2020, and a lot has happened since then. Lachie’s added more huge AFL achievements to his name – he’s now a four-time All-Australian, six-time best and fairest, two-time Brownlow Medallist, and a Brisbane Lions Co-Captain and Premiership champion.
But beyond the accolades, he’s still as humble and grounded as ever.
In this episode, we talk about a ‘year of contrast’ for Lachie and his footy club, from the media frenzy surrounding the Lions’ pre-season trip to the US, to the ultimate triumph of winning the Grand Final. Lachie also shares insights into self-belief, juggling footy with being a husband and dad, and what keeps him motivated at the top.
It’s a genuine and inspiring chat, and I hope you enjoy listening.
