265: Adam Simpson (Part A)

He really has experienced it all in footy. A two-time premiership player, a premiership coach, even a wooden spoon… and now a man watching it all unfold from the commentary box. Simmo really has lived every layer of the game. Simmo opens up on the brutal reality of being sacked, when the noise gets loud, the pressure turns personal, and even your own kids are asking, "how haven't you got the sack yet?". But this episode isn't just about those BIG moments, it's full of gold. From the legendary $10K Mad Monday cash splash after the 2018 flag, to the coaching mistakes that shaped him, and the lessons every aspiring AFL coach needs to hear. There's the Shinboner spirit of the 90s, wild stories of a different era, and deep reflections on legacy, leadership, and what success really means when it's all said and done. It's candid, funny, and incredibly insightful, the full journey of a man who's truly seen it all. It's honest but packed with perspective (and wit!). From leading at the top to fighting through the bottom, and the powerful life lessons that come with both. *** EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➜ - Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee! *** Follow the Howie Games on Instagram: Follow the Howie Games on TikTok:
