#295 - Dyson Heppell - Chaos, Charisma & Leading Through Footy's Darkest Saga

Dyson Heppell is a legend of the Essendon Football Club, All Australian, Crichton Medalist, Rising Star Winner & founder of "Haych".

During his AFL career, he played over 250 games and captained the Bombers for 6 years.

We knew this would be a fun chat, but boy did we get some ripping stories.

Dys shares some hilarious early career stories from the day he hung up on childhood hero, James Hird to their first meeting (where he was bare foot) and the wild ride of his first season where he won the Rising Star award.

We hear about the coaches he played under (and who gave the best spray), the characters around the club, some of the biggest games of his career and of course the day Brendon Goddard smashed the pretzels!

Dyson opens up about leadership and what it's like being captain of such a famous club. From Hirdy stories to Jobe's style, we get some incredible insight.

And of course, the famous saga that still haunts the club. Dyson lifts the lid on the years from hell, how he coped and the way the group stayed as tight as possible.

From the solo training sessions to the first day back on the track, this is an era that will sadly never be forgotten.

Off the field, Haych is making a serious difference.

Hear about the special bond with Harrison, the bucket list that is being ticked off and the heartwarming content that is being created. The story behind it is one to behold.

On the spot returns, the GCO Chipping challenge and plenty of laughs.

Sit back and enjoy the legendary, Dyson Heppell!
