On today’s episode we speak with retired AFL star Joel Selwood, whose glittering resume includes premierships and all-Australian berths. He’s perhaps best known as the consummate captain, having lead the Geelong Cats for 10 years or 227 games - the most as a skipper in AFL history. Hosting a discussion about everything from head high tackles to concussion, fertility and disability to the balance between ruthlessness and kindness in sport, as well as Selwood’s upcoming memoir, All In, is Good Weekend senior writer, Konrad Marshall.
