Scoreboard

In this special episode of Scoreboard’s Behind the Scenes of Sport mini-series, Chris Titley is joined again by Stu Smith for a practical and honest conversation about human performance, daily habits and whether the tools used by elite athletes can genuinely apply to everyday life.The episode begins with Chris reflecting on his own experience through the Vitalis Institute program, and the habits that have stayed with him. From reducing screen time and putting the phone away before bed, to breathing, journaling, sitting outside without devices and being more prepared for the next day, the conversation shows how small changes can start to shift energy, headspace and relationships.Stu explains why high performance is not just for professional athletes, CEOs or people on big stages. The same principles that help a cricketer walk out to bat or a snowboarder prepare for a run can also help a parent get through a busy week, a business owner manage stress, or anyone trying to be more present at home. The focus is on clarity, emotional control, recovery, physical capacity, relationships and a stronger sense of agency.A big part of the conversation centres on phones, screens and the pull of easy dopamine. Chris talks openly about becoming more aware of his own phone habits, how often he was reaching for it, and the impact that can have on family life. Stu breaks down why attention matters, why constant stimulation can affect headspace, and why learning to pause before acting on an impulse is such an important skill.The episode also explores self-talk, the “chimp” in your head, victim mindset, acceptance, resilience and the power of shifting language from “I have to” to “I get to”. Chris and Stu discuss how these ideas show up in sport, work and family life, and how small moments of awareness can help people move away from frustration, comparison and distraction.This is a conversation about control, responsibility and building better habits one choice at a time. The message is simple: high performance strategies are not reserved for elite athletes. They are tools for anyone who wants to feel better, think clearer, connect more deeply and perform well in the life they are already living.

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley is joined by Teremoana Teremoana, undefeated heavyweight boxer and Australian Olympian, for a grounded and honest conversation about boxing, family, faith and the journey from reluctant fighter to world title ambition.Teremoana reflects on a strong 2026, being undefeated for the year and continuing to build his record as a professional. He talks about learning from every fight, enjoying the process, and adjusting to the parts of the sport that now sit outside the ring, from sponsors and podcasts to meeting business people and building a team around him.The conversation goes back to his early years in rugby league, where he dreamed of playing for the New South Wales Blues and ran around for Centenary Panthers. Boxing was not his first love. In fact, he admits he did not really like it as a young fighter, but did it out of respect for his father, who wanted him to learn discipline, confidence and how to protect his family.Teremoana also shares the turning point that changed everything. After his grandfather passed away, he asked people to start calling him by his first name, Teremoana, and soon after made the decision to chase the dream of becoming heavyweight world champion. He left behind plans for a plumbing business, travelled Australia with his family, came back to Brisbane with $120 to his name, and committed the next decade of his life to boxing.There is plenty on preparation, mindset and the reality of the sport. Teremoana talks about trusting his coaches, building a tight team, finding the right fighting weight, improving his nutrition, and showing up every day for the one percent gains. He also opens up on faith, nerves, visualisation, training twice a day, recovery, golf, and why boxing still comes down to doing the work and listening well.This is a conversation about purpose, sacrifice and knowing why you are stepping into the ring. For Teremoana, the fight is bigger than himself. It is about family, Cook Islands heritage, faith, and inspiring the next generation to believe there is more possible for them too.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley is joined by Jamie Young, former A-League goalkeeper, championship winner and now athlete consultant, for a raw and thoughtful conversation about football, identity, pressure and the next chapter after 25 years in the professional game.Jamie reflects on a year of major transition, from retiring as a player and moving back to Brisbane, to completing his PhD and working out what life looks like beyond the dressing room. After seven seasons with Brisbane Roar, a championship-winning stint at Western United and his final years at Melbourne City, he speaks with real honesty about walking away from the game at peace.The conversation goes back to Jamie’s early years in Brisbane, where a mix of sports, hand-eye coordination and a Scottish dad who did not want him to be a goalkeeper all shaped the start of his career. He talks about leaving school as a teenager for a trial at Reading, growing up quickly in the UK system, and the ruthless reality of football environments where performance, selection and survival were never guaranteed.Jamie also opens up on playing for England at youth level, competing with future Premier League players, and the imposter syndrome that can come from being around big names before you really know who you are. He reflects on how football has changed, why coaching is less abrasive now, and why elite sport still needs accountability, edge and people who can handle the big moments.There is plenty on culture, leadership and the standards that sit behind successful teams. Jamie talks about the difference between mediocrity and high performance, why he left Brisbane when he felt the environment had shifted, and how Western United gave him the clarity, accountability and winning culture he was chasing. He also shares what he now sees as a gap in sport, with young players often taught how to play but not always how to build a career.Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight.PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info: More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠ YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley is joined by Matt Renshaw, Australian and Queensland cricketer, for a relaxed and honest conversation about cricket, perspective, family and finding joy in the game again.Matt reflects on a 2026 that has already taken him in unexpected directions, from a strong Big Bash campaign to playing T20 cricket for Australia, being called into a World Cup squad, and touring Pakistan and Bangladesh. He talks about learning not to assume what comes next, staying ready for different formats and schedules, and balancing life on the road with being a husband and dad to two young kids.The conversation also explores how fatherhood has changed the way Matt sees cricket. He shares how small moments with his kids can quickly shift his mood after a dismissal, and why watching them play in the backyard has reminded him of the simple joy that sits underneath the professional game. For Matt, contracts, selection and media attention matter, but they are not the whole story.There is plenty of cricket detail too, from batting routines and trigger movements to red-ball patience, white-ball freedom and the challenge of switching between formats. Matt speaks openly about his dislike of aimless net sessions, why he prefers game-based practice, and how music, presence and a bit of fun help him stay loose at the crease. He also looks back on his wild Big Bash innings at the Gabba with Jack Wood, where belief, timing and a few things going their way turned a huge chase into one of those nights that still feels hard to explain.Matt also opens up on the realities of playing for Australia, including the pride of wearing the same kit as his childhood heroes, the pressure that comes with selection, and the noise that follows athletes through media and social media. He speaks honestly about online abuse, betting culture, and the importance of keeping a tight inner circle when the outside commentary gets loud.Away from cricket, the episode covers golf, lawn care, Harry Potter Lego, barbecues, coffee, saunas, phone habits and the small things that help Matt switch off. This is a conversation about growth, perspective and still seeing cricket as something to enjoy. For Matt, the game has changed plenty over the past decade, but the best version of his cricket still comes from playing, competing and having fun.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley is joined by Corey Rocchiccioli, Western Australian cricketer and off-spinner, for a thoughtful conversation about cricket, mindset, patience and the work that sits behind long-term performance.Corey reflects on a big start to 2026, with success on the field, getting married, moving into a renovated house and navigating the usual challenges of selection, form and the rhythm of professional cricket. He speaks honestly about how consuming the game can be, from checking county scores in the morning to preparing his body and mind through the off-season.The conversation goes deep into the mental side of cricket. Corey explains how he uses visualisation, review, rating systems and scenario-based preparation to get himself ready for first-class cricket. He also unpacks the idea of blue brain and red brain, and how understanding stress, clarity and arousal has helped him manage pressure in long spells and tight moments.Corey also shares the less glamorous side of the journey, from missing junior selections to working his way through grade cricket, changing clubs, finding the right coaching and building belief through what he calls naive optimism. He talks about wanting to play first grade before the dream grew into Western Australia and beyond, and why he still feels like he is only scratching the surface of the cricketer he can become.There is plenty for cricket lovers too, from the changing shape of the game and the rise of franchise cricket to the craft of bowling to players like Usman Khawaja and Marnus Labuschagne. Corey gives a clear sense of the puzzle of spin bowling, the value of small pieces of information, and the joy of trying to stay one step ahead of good batters.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley welcomes Emily Chancellor, Wallaroos back rower and Waratahs leader, for a thoughtful conversation about rugby, connection, pressure and the joy that still sits at the heart of why she plays.Fresh off her Barbarians experience in the UK, Emily reflects on what made the week so special, from meeting teammates from around the world to building trust quickly and playing for the love of the game. She talks about rugby as a place of challenge, friendship and shared experience, and why the Barbarians felt like such a clear reminder of what the sport can give.Emily also looks back on her late start in rugby, growing up watching the game with her dad, playing netball and swimming, and then giving Sevens a go after a university email opened the door. From there, she found her way into 15s, where the physicality, strategy and team-first nature of the game quickly felt like the place she was meant to be.The conversation moves into performance, preparation and the lessons that come with experience. Emily shares how her pre-game routines have changed over time, why structure and superstition both have their place, and how she has learned to trust the work she has already done. She also explains her on-field alter ego, a smiling assassin crossed with a Tasmanian devil, and why having more fun than everyone else can be a genuine competitive edge.There is also plenty on leadership, both in rugby and in the workplace. Emily talks about leading through actions, owning your craft, seeking feedback, making quick decisions under pressure, and the trust that comes from spending real time with teammates. Her work in people and culture at Richard Crookes Construction has also given her a new way to think about leadership, standards and how people want to be treated.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with Nick Malouf, former Australian Rugby Sevens captain and three-time Olympian, for a thoughtful conversation about leadership, identity, pressure and the shift into life after professional sport.Nick reflects on more than a decade in the Australian Sevens program, the discipline it took to perform on the world stage, and the lessons that came from injuries, missed selections and the constant demands of the game. He shares how he learned to grieve setbacks, get clear on what he could control, and move forward without getting stuck in overthinking.The conversation also explores leadership in a real and practical way. Nick talks about the jump from vice-captain to captain, the pressure of leading Australia, and why authenticity matters more than trying to copy someone else’s style. He also opens up on feedback, relationships, decision-making and the value of calm, decisive leadership, with Pat Cummins standing out as one example he admired.Away from the field, Nick discusses planning for life after sport, studying commerce, working at CBA, and then finding his way back into the sporting world through Teamworks. He speaks honestly about wanting a clean break from rugby, the pull of working with teams again, and how his playing career now shapes the way he thinks about business, people and performance.There is plenty of texture too, from marathon ambitions and coffee habits to the social side of team environments, Queensland State of Origin memories, and the bucket list dream of the Monaco Grand Prix. Nick also gives a clear view of what retirement felt like, including the relief of no longer measuring every decision against performance.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with Olympic gold medallist Sally Pearson for a thoughtful and deeply personal conversation about high performance, identity and life after elite sport. From becoming one of the world’s greatest hurdlers to stepping into media, broadcasting and motherhood, Sally reflects on the challenge of evolving while still embracing the athlete she once was. Sally opens up about the mindset that drove her from a young gymnast with huge dreams to the top of world athletics. She speaks honestly about being highly competitive from childhood, studying the habits of athletes she admired and becoming obsessed with understanding what it truly took to be the best. For Sally, success was never accidental. It came from relentless preparation, attention to detail and a deep connection between process and performance. The conversation explores the sacrifices and structure required to compete at Olympic level, but Sally is quick to challenge the idea that elite athletes are simply “selfish.” Instead, she frames it as commitment to a craft, protecting the routines, habits and recovery needed to perform at the highest standard. She reflects on how athletics completely defined her during her career and why she is comfortable admitting that pursuit demanded almost everything from her. Now working in radio and broadcasting, Sally shares how media unexpectedly gave her the same nervous excitement she once felt standing on a start line. From learning to read autocue's live on air to developing confidence through acting classes and commentary work, she speaks about embracing discomfort and allowing herself to be a beginner again. There is also a fascinating insight into the mind of an elite athlete. Sally explains how she naturally visualised races, felt every movement in her body and became so technically aware that she could detect mistakes invisible to everyone else. Whether discussing Michael Jackson’s perfectionism, Roger Federer’s effortless movement or Bruce McAvaney's storytelling, she is drawn to people who make greatness look smooth and natural despite the enormous work behind it. This is a conversation about reinvention, obsession and learning to channel the same drive that once chased Olympic gold into a completely new chapter of life. Sally’s message is simple but powerful: keep holding onto the dream, keep learning and find joy in the hard work required to become great.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with former AFL player Lachie Keeffe for an honest conversation about transition, identity and finding purpose after elite sport. After an 18 year football journey across Collingwood and the GWS Giants, Lachie reflects on the realities of role playing in the AFL system, navigating one year contracts and learning how to stay grounded in an environment built on uncertainty. Now working in finance and investor relations with private markets firm Spy Capital, Lachie opens up about the shift from locker room life to corporate life and the challenge of starting again from the bottom in a completely different industry. He explains how planning for life after football became important during the final years of his career and why education, networking and curiosity helped him prepare for the transition. The conversation also dives into resilience and mindset. Lachie reflects on serious ACL injuries, setbacks and periods where momentum disappeared just as he felt like he belonged at AFL level. Rather than focusing on frustration, he learned to focus on what could still be improved during recovery and how staying calm and process driven helped him through difficult moments. There is a thoughtful perspective throughout the episode around elite environments and relationships. Lachie explains why the best clubs and businesses are built on trust, genuine connection and people moving in the same direction. Whether in sport or finance, he believes strong relationships create the foundation for people to perform at their best. From growing up loving soccer in regional Queensland to building a long AFL career and now stepping into the finance world, Lachie’s story is one of adaptability, curiosity and embracing change. A grounded conversation about preparing for what comes next while still appreciating the journey that got you there.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with former Australian cricketer Brad Hogg for a fast moving and deeply insightful conversation about cricket, mindset and staying connected to the joy of the game. From country cricket in Western Australia to representing Australia on the world stage, Brad reflects on the lessons that shaped both his career and his outlook on life. Brad shares stories from growing up around country cricket, where the game was built on participation, community and giving everyone a chance. Those early lessons around teamwork and belonging stayed with him throughout his career and became central to how he viewed success at the highest level. He explains how putting the team first ultimately transformed his career after a difficult period in the late 1990s when he lost sight of what had made him successful in the first place. The conversation also dives into pressure and performance. Brad opens up about being dropped from the WA side, the honest feedback from Justin Langer that forced him to look inward and the mindset shift that followed. Rather than obsessing over playing for Australia, he learned to focus on improving one small thing each day, whether that was fitness, bowling accuracy or preparation. It became a philosophy that not only rebuilt his cricket career but still guides his life today. There is plenty of humour throughout as well. From facing Brett Lee and Mitchell Johnson in the nets to stories about Jimmy Maher, Andrew Symonds and the energy of Australian dressing rooms, Brad reflects on why having fun was one of his greatest performance tools. For him, relaxed players perform better, connect better and handle pressure better. Beyond cricket, Brad speaks passionately about helping younger players grow, protecting the culture of Australian cricket and ensuring the game remains connected to the fans and communities that built it. He also shares concerns around modern professionalism, the pressures of franchise cricket and the challenge players now face balancing financial decisions with the dream of Test cricket. 🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with South Australian fast bowler Jordan Buckingham to unpack the mindset behind back to back Sheffield Shield success and what it takes to evolve from a fringe player into a key contributor in a winning team. Jordan reflects on his journey from Victoria to South Australia, a move that came with uncertainty but ultimately became the foundation of his career. He shares how early years of struggle and team rebuilds have turned into reward, with the group now chasing a rare three peat after decades without success. A major theme throughout the conversation is shifting focus away from individual stats and toward team success. Jordan explains how becoming more process driven changed his performance, learning to judge himself on effort, role execution and contribution rather than wickets alone. For a fast bowler in particular, where so much is out of your control, that mindset has been critical. He also opens up about the mental side of the game, from working with sports psychologists to managing emotion and finding the right level of intensity on the field. Whether it is competing hard against top players or handling big moments late in games, Jordan embraces the contest and looks for small edges that separate good performances from great ones. Off the field, there is a lighter side too, from paddle tennis and golf to life with teammates and the balance required in a long cricket season. But the message remains consistent: focus on the process, stay present and let the results take care of themselves.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

Brad opens up about the realities of AFL life, the pressure of performance, constant feedback and the need to stay on edge to maintain a career. He shares how those experiences have shaped his approach to business, from handling criticism to staying consistent and focusing on preparation. For Brad, the parallels are clear: there is no shortcut, just hard work, repetition and making your own luck over time. The conversation also dives into mindset. From learning to move on quickly from mistakes to using visualisation as a tool for performance, Brad explains how he built resilience across a career filled with both highs and setbacks. He speaks honestly about injuries, form slumps and the importance of staying level through it all, lessons that now translate directly into his working life. There is a strong focus on growth and perspective. Brad reflects on how his goals evolved over time, from wanting to simply belong in a team to thinking bigger and setting more ambitious targets.

Tony shares what made rugby so special in his era, long tours with teammates, strong club culture and the kind of camaraderie that lasts a lifetime. He explains how those experiences shaped not just his playing career but his approach to leadership in business and governance roles later on.

The conversation also explores where rugby sits today. Tony gives an honest assessment of the game’s challenges in Australia, from competition with other codes to the importance of investing in pathways and developing players earlier. Despite this, he remains optimistic, pointing to growing participation, improved structures and the opportunity ahead with major events on the horizon. There is plenty of colour throughout, from classic tour stories and old school coaching methods to reflections on what actually makes great teams.

Chris Titley sits down with Adam Voges to explore the journey from elite player to high performance coach and the lessons that carry across both roles. From winning Big Bash titles to earning a Baggy Green later in his career, Adam reflects on the mindset, resilience and understanding of the game that shaped his success. Adam shares how his greatest strength as a batter was reading the game and understanding what it required in different moments. That same skill now underpins his coaching, where clarity of role and empowering players to make decisions are central to building high performing teams. He explains how modern coaching has evolved, with more staff, better resources and a greater focus on creating environments where players can thrive rather than simply being told what to do. The conversation also dives into leadership. Adam reflects on stepping straight into a head coaching role, the early challenges of finding his own voice, and the importance of authenticity over trying to replicate others. He speaks openly about tough conversations, managing relationships with former teammates and helping players navigate both opportunity and disappointment. There is a strong thread around development and purpose. For Adam, success as a coach is not just measured by trophies but by helping players grow, whether that is a debut cap for a young cricketer or seeing players reach the international stage. He also shares his passion for the longer form of the game and his hope that Test cricket and the Sheffield Shield continue to thrive alongside the global growth of T20 leagues. 🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with Moises Henriques for a deeply honest conversation about performance, pressure and rediscovering joy in the game. From Big Bash finals to back surgery and a career shaped by resilience, Moises reflects on the physical and mental toll of elite cricket and how he has learned to navigate both. Moises opens up about the turning point in his career when fear of failure began to outweigh his love for the game. Once a player who thrived in big moments, he found himself withdrawing from pressure situations, worried about letting the team down. What followed was a period of self reflection and emotional work to change how he viewed failure, shifting from fear to growth and from avoidance to ownership. He shares practical insight into mindset under pressure, from learning to step into uncomfortable moments rather than avoid them, to reframing success around daily values instead of results. His three guiding principles are simple but powerful: improve each day, help someone else improve, and if you fall short, try again tomorrow. There is also a strong performance lens throughout the conversation. Moises explains how experience shapes decision making in high pressure chases, why clarity beats emotion in key moments, and how confidence and flow can completely change execution, whether with bat or ball.More than anything, this episode is about growth. From losing his love for cricket to finding it again, Moises offers a perspective that goes beyond sport, one grounded in honesty, learning and the courage to face the moments that matter most.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with Zach Tuohy to unpack a career built less on early certainty and more on persistence, growth and self-belief. From a young athlete in Ireland juggling Gaelic football, hurling and soccer, Zach shares how a lack of confidence nearly held him back before eventually finding his path into the AFL. Zach reflects on the leap from Ireland to Australia and the reality shock that came with it. What he imagined as a glamorous professional sporting life quickly became cold training sessions, unfamiliar environments and self-doubt. But through sticking it out and slowly building confidence, he carved out a long and respected AFL career across Carlton and Geelong. The conversation explores the internal battles many athletes face. Zach speaks openly about imposter syndrome, struggling to believe he belonged at the level, and how his confidence was once limited strictly to game time. Over time, consistent performance, strong coaching relationships and embracing feedback helped him grow into a leader and premiership player. He also shares insights into elite environments, from competing for a spot early in his career to reinventing himself at a new club and eventually reaching the ultimate goal of winning a premiership. That moment, he explains, changes how you view everything that came before it. Now navigating life after football, Zach talks about identity, finding purpose beyond sport and the challenge of replacing the adrenaline and structure that elite competition provides. Whether it is media, governance or completely new ventures, he is in a phase of exploration, learning and rediscovery.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with former Wallabies captain Steven Moore for a thoughtful and grounded conversation about life in and after elite rugby, leadership, and the mindset required to perform at the highest level. From growing up in regional Queensland to earning over 100 Test caps for Australia, Steve reflects on the journey through professional rugby and the standards required to succeed on the international stage.

From a career that began as a teenage prodigy to representing New South Wales in State of Origin, Mitch reflects on the pressures, expectations and emotional rollercoaster that come with elite professional sport.

The conversation also explores mindset, personal growth and the changes Mitch made later in his career that helped bring clarity and balance to his life. From training for a marathon to building healthier routines and focusing on purpose beyond sport, he explains how high performance can evolve long after the final whistle. It is a reflective discussion about responsibility, identity and the journey of finding peace after years in one of Australia’s most demanding sporting arenas.

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down in person with former AFL Lions captain Tom Rockliff for a candid conversation about life after professional sport. From playing more than 200 AFL games with Brisbane and Port Adelaide to now running his own business, Tom reflects on the transition from elite footballer to entrepreneur and father. Tom opens up about the reality many athletes face when the game finishes. After years of structure, competition and purpose, retirement can leave a void. For Tom, that journey included a difficult divorce, time away from his kids and a period where he had to rebuild both personally and professionally. Running became a mental reset, journaling helped him process the day and working with a psychologist gave him strategies to regain clarity and direction. He also shares why giving up alcohol became a turning point in his life. What started as a short break quickly revealed how much clearer, healthier and more present he felt without it. Combined with routine, exercise and strong personal principles, Tom explains how these habits helped him become more grounded and focused on what matters most. Now running Rockliff Finance and balancing work with fatherhood, Tom talks about the lessons sport gave him that translate into business. Competitiveness, resilience and discipline remain central to how he approaches life today. While he admits he did not have the natural athletic gifts of many players, he believes his football IQ, determination and willingness to work harder than others were the traits that allowed him to carve out a long AFL career. This episode is a powerful reflection on identity after sport, personal growth and learning how to rebuild purpose when life changes direction. Tom’s message is simple but meaningful: focus on the fundamentals, stay disciplined and aim to be the best version of yourself every single day.

In this episode of Scoreboard, Chris Titley sits down with Todd Carney for one of the most raw and reflective conversations on the podcast to date. A former NRL star now working as a pathways coach with the Gold Coast Titans, Todd speaks openly about the highs of professional rugby league and the very public lows that followed. Todd describes rugby league as the greatest rollercoaster of his life. It gave him success, identity and opportunity, but also shame, heartache and lessons he had to learn the hard way. He revisits the turning point that changed everything, the drive to rehab on the 24th of February, a moment he now calls his true Scoreboard moment.From that day forward he committed to sobriety, rebuilding trust and redefining who he wanted to be as a father, husband and mentor. The conversation goes deep into discipline and selfishness in high performance sport. Todd argues that young rugby league players must be selfish in the right way if they want to make it, prioritising the game over distractions, ego and temptation. He reflects on alcohol, gambling and the environment that can swallow talented athletes, explaining how central alcohol was to his downward spiral and why removing it changed everything. Now approaching 40, Todd talks about fatherhood, routine and daily habits that keep him grounded. Early morning training, cold showers, structured sleep and one day at a time thinking are his anchors. He is honest about slip ups, about the ongoing work required to stay sober, and about accepting that his past will always be part of his story. This episode is not just about rugby league. It is about accountability, identity and second chances. Todd does not hide from the mistakes that defined headlines, but instead uses them as tools to guide the next generation. His message is simple: if you are going to chase the dream, commit fully, own your decisions, and never ignore the moment you know something needs to change. If you follow rugby league or care about the human side of elite sport, this is a powerful listen.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Video and photography production for business marketing, corporate and social media content, and conference and event coverage servicing Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne and offshore by request - Contact Rob Williams [email protected] or+61 0407 725 759More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

Brandon Starcevich joins Chris Titley for a grounded, thoughtful conversation about change, pressure and backing yourself when the spotlight is on. Fresh off a move back to Perth and into a new club environment, Brandon reflects on leaving Brisbane after a premiership run, navigating free agency and choosing what felt right personally rather than purely professionally. He opens up about being an intensity driven defender who relies on preparation and mental sharpness to compete with more naturally gifted opponents. From spending hours studying matchups to grounding himself through breathing and visualisation before running out, Brandon explains how he manages big game nerves and turns emotional energy into focus. He shares the shift from early career hype and pressure to appreciating the moment, smiling before a packed stadium and embracing the noise rather than fearing it. There is honesty around setbacks too. Brandon talks about injuries, the frustration of watching from the sidelines, and the discipline required to attack rehab so that when opportunity returns he is ready. He reflects on the sting of losses, the importance of reviewing vision with coaches to properly put games to bed, and the mindset of staying even keel across a long season. A powerful thread through the episode is belief. Brandon revisits a pivotal under 18 moment when a tough conversation with Peter Sumich forced him to lift his standards and truly commit. Later in his AFL journey, advice about “owning your space” from David Boon became a mental anchor. Whether it is a one on one contest, a matchup, or a moment late in a game, he believes in claiming responsibility for what is directly in front of him. Off the field, Brandon is leaning into business with a new venture called Club Scout, aimed at bringing data driven valuations into local football recruiting. It reflects his broader interest in growth beyond the game and understanding value, opportunity and long term impact. 🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]

Matt Flynn joins Chris Titley to reflect on a season that finally clicked and on the habits that let him stay available, useful and calm in a demanding AFL life. Matt talks honestly about early-career injuries and the work he and the medical team did to close gaps in his body, how a focus on simple, daily routines, sleep, walks, meditation and steady social connection fed into more consistent performances, and why consistency off the field follows consistency on it.He explains the practical side of being a modern ruckman: building aerobic capacity to influence contests both in front of and behind the ball, using GPS and game metrics to monitor load, and learning to be present rather than over-aroused before big games. Matt also describes the quiet shift from chasing personal stats to helping teammates win, how the “voice” became his most reliable contribution, and why demanding communication lifts team standards.Matt reflects on the move from GWS to West Coast, the awkward reset that turned into a fresh start, and the club work that gives the group a clear path to improve year on year. He is candid about the sting of narrow losses, the need to learn fast from review, and the simple metric mindset the group uses to measure progress.🔗 Show notesThis episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZThe Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.PocketSmith is personal finance software made for the household CFO — the one keeping the family budget on track, making sure the bills are paid, and the big goals are in sight. PocketSmith’s got a special offer for Scoreboard listeners: get 50% off your first two months of PocketSmith’s Foundation plan. 👉  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.pocketsmith.com/scoreboard/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠More info:📌 More episodes: ⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠🎥 YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📩 Partnerships: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]
