About the episode

AFL Hall of Famer Simon Black joins Dobbo & Elliott on Triple M Rush Hour ahead of the Brisbane Lions’ massive AFL Grand Final showdown with the Geelong Cats. With the Lions making history by reaching three consecutive grand finals, Black shares his admiration for the squad and reflects on what it takes to go back-to-back. He dives deep into the lessons learned from failure, comparing Brisbane’s recent qualifying final loss to Geelong with his own 2003 experience, where resilience turned disappointment into premiership glory. Black reveals the mindset of playing in consecutive grand finals, explaining why “winning becomes addictive” and how this group’s hunger to secure a second straight flag could define the club for generations. The episode also touches on Gold Coast Suns star Matt Rowell’s stunning Brownlow Medal win, the atmosphere of AFL’s biggest night, and an insider tip that Lachie Neale could make a miraculous return from injury for the decider.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
