91: Chris Scott (Pt A)
#TheHowieGames | Chris Scott is a two-time premiership player with the Brisbane Lions and a Premiership coach of the Geelong Football Club. This chat does go back and looks at Chris’s upbringing and playing career, but it’s more an insight into the life a modern coach. A role that seems to be part manager, part psychologist, part motivator and part teacher. It is also a role that forces some very tough decisions on those charged with the responsibility. Hopefully this episode gets away from the Chris Scott you see on game day and takes you into the world of Chris Scott the father, husband, brother, leader….and cook of fancy steaks! Stay safe crew. ------ Follow The Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/ Follow The Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames Find Howie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MarkHoward03/ Follow Howie on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/markhoward03/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 88: Kurt Fearnley (Part A)
#TheHowieGames | Kurt Fearnley is a phenomenal athlete. A Paralympic legend who, when racing, was defined by his iron will and absolute refusal to give up. Ever. Kurt had the ability to physically push himself into areas where few people go. His explanation of the mental attitudes required to do this are pretty special. But more than that, Kurt is a man who seeks out adventure, in a world where adventures are often a distant dream. If ya want a lift, I reckon this episode will get you up and about. Stay safe. ❤️ ------ Follow The Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/ Follow The Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames Find Howie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MarkHoward03/ Follow Howie on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/markhoward03/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
