This week on Dyl & Friends, we’re joined by one of footy’s great storytellers and the man behind some of the biggest moments in the AFL, Shane O’Sullivan.
From a kid in Bunyip helping run the family insurance shop to becoming a three-time premiership figure at Carlton, Shane’s journey is nothing short of exciting. He’s recruited legends, locked players (my Dad) in their rooms before grand finals, broken up infamous fights, and helped steer clubs through chaos, controversy, and change.
We talk premiership glory in ’79, ’81 and ’82, life with the Blues, jumping to the Bulldogs, building the Brisbane Bears from scratch, and his decades shaping Carlton’s list, including his relationships with Eddie Betts, Michael Voss, Brett Ratten and Mick Malthouse.
It’s a mix of untold stories, honest reflections, and a rare peek behind the curtain of 40 years in the game. If you love footy history and a good laugh, this one’s for you.
