Where Do We Begin?

Where Do We Begin?

Shackman Productions

Unlike most Australians, Harper and Lachie aren't very athletically gifted. Fortunately, though, they're quite good at admiring those who are. And talking. They're quite good at that too.

That's why they talk to Australia's most fascinating sportspeople.

Sometimes they get deep. Sometimes they don't. But, as their listeners can (probably) confirm, they're always a blast to listen to.

Episodes every Monday until they interview the 25 millionth and final talented Australian athlete.

Where Do We Begin? - Episode 2: Hayden Ballantyne
play

05/06/20 • 44 min

Simply put, Hayden Ballantyne is one of the greatest small forwards that Australian Football has ever seen. He's claimed All-Australian honours, won Goal of the Year, been named the WAFL's best player at 21 years old, kicked 76 goals in a year, helped bring a club to its first Grand Final and taken out Fremantle's leading goalkicker award. Oh, and he also had a WAFL ground wing named after him at 21. The boys chat with him about how he found about the Hayden Ballantyne Wing, the 'pest' tag, draft rejections and pilates, as well as one of Australia's most universally hated songs.
