Let’s hope it really hurts, because you know what that means…
I’m not sure Andy will be driven by money like some players are.
I’m sure he will want fair compensation for his talent but I think he will be driven by success.
He will know that he’s going to have opportunities outside of football to make the big dollars.

A dangerous game to play in this day and age too.
Thankfully he re-signed then!

Judd and Cotchin are the ones I can think of.
The 1st player/CEO in Australian sporting history I reckon.

Hurry up…find some thing to Panic…
If I’m not mistaken most of Paul Connors clients get managed by Robbie D’Orazzio now.
Wait for the bass to drop… the floor is lava!

An interesting interview with young Andrew. More of a strength and conditioning perspective.

Enjoyed the interview. Thanks for posting it.
That video wasn’t really doing it for me but then I stuck a couple of very sharp sticks in my ears and things improved. He’s a Ferrari with a Rolls ride.

pretty good interview, but that audio is absolutely atrocious.
Yeah, they could do with some decent mics. Good on them though for putting it together.
