Their guest this week is Collingwood premiership coach and former Brisbane Lions champion, Craig McRae. This is an all-encompassing and fascinating chat with one of the most interesting minds in the modern game, one that covers footy, leadership, culture, and life beyond the game. Craig has experienced elite football from almost every angle. A 3x premiership player with the Lions, he later worked under coaching greats including Leigh Matthews and Damien Hardwick before taking over as Collingwood coach in 2022 and leading the Pies to their famous 2023 premiership. The boys get into how Craig's coaching philosophy has evolved, the influence of his time at Brisbane and Richmond, and why optimism, gratitude, joy and being “good humans first” sit at the core of the way he coaches. They also unpack the rituals, pillars and themes that helped shape Collingwood's culture. They also chat about the legendary Brisbane Lions dynasty, life alongside characters like Voss, Black, Brown and Akermanis, and what it was like winning three flags in a row. The conversation also goes beyond football, with Craig talking about his background as a teacher, his passion for learning and leadership, his purpose in life, and how is finds balance in a profession that pulls you in every direction. We thank Craig for his time.

He is one of the most influential figures in Australian sport — and his story is as powerful as the way he played. From a teenager bursting onto the scene at Hawthorn to becoming one of the most feared and respected players the game has ever seen, Leigh’s career is stacked with extraordinary moments. Four premierships as a player. Over 900 goals. A reputation as one of the toughest competitors to ever pull on a guernsey. But that’s just the beginning. Leigh takes us inside his incredible journey — how he got his start, the mindset that fuelled his legendary career, his transition to coaching, and the honest reflections that have made him one of the game's great storytellers. Whether it’s breaking a point post in half, leading Collingwood to drought-breaking glory, masterminding the Brisbane Lions’ famous three-peat, or analysing the modern game, Leigh shares it all with sharp detail, raw honesty, and a brilliant sense of humour. *** Follow the Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/ Follow the Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
