To kick off 2026, we have one of the most iconic names in Carlton Football Club history.

278 games, a premiership, and a legacy that will last an eternity.

Anthony Koutoufides joins The Watch to chat footy, work and life as a Blue.

There is no more daunting role in sports than that of a senior coach, and this guest provides us an insight into the reasons why.

It came as no surprise when she was announced at the helm of the Western Bulldogs AFLW side due to her ability to connect with people and elite football IQ.

From the world of professional golf, to the top of the AFL game, this is
Tamara Hyett.

She was one of the AFLW’s inaugural draftees and a trailblazer for a product that wouldn’t be where it is today without people like her. With that, came some incredible highs and crushing lows.

This guest had her career cut short by an illness that she still battles every single day. She is a story of courage, perseverance and success.

This is The Watch with Richelle Cranston, more affectionally known, as Rocky.

It’s been 10 years since I first sent an email to this guest - an email with grammar and punctuation that no doubt would’ve disappointed my year 12 English teacher at the time. But that email was met with an opportunity that I dare say very few 18 year olds have been lucky enough to receive.

On this episode of The Watch, we unpack that story, and learn countless lessons from one of the best operators in the sports media industry.

This is Episode 16, with Hamish McLachlan - a man who has continuously been far too generous with his time.

This episode is the first of its kind. We’re out of the studio and into the Capper Cave, yes the Capper Cave, because when a man of this calibre gives you even the slightest bit of his time, you just have to make an exception.

He’s one of footballs most flamboyant characters and really needs no introduction. If you haven’t heard of his name, this episode might not be for you.

The 2018 Rising Star winner appeared destined for a lengthy career at AFL level. He had sharp skills, speed to burn and an ability to stand up on the biggest stage of all.

Yet just seven years later, Jaidyn Stephenson joins The Watch to break down his decision to step away from professional football.

In August, 2023, Joel Smith tested positive for the use of an illicit drug during an AFL match.

He was subsequently suspended from playing professional sport for four years.

Now, 19 months later, he speaks publicly about the incident, and the aftermath, for the very first time.

467 men have donned the Baggy Green for Australia, but just one of them have also featured on The Watch.

With the summer officially here, five-time Sheffield Shield champion and former test batsman, Bob Quiney, jumps on the podcast to talk all things cricket.
