Episode 154: Matt Flynn (AFL) Voice, Consistency and the Long Game

Описание: Matt Flynn joins Chris Titley to reflect on a season that finally clicked and on the habits that let him stay available, useful and calm in a demanding AFL life.

Matt talks honestly about early-career injuries and the work he and the medical team did to close gaps in his body, how a focus on simple, daily routines, sleep, walks, meditation and steady social connection fed into more consistent performances, and why consistency off the field follows consistency on it.


He explains the practical side of being a modern ruckman: building aerobic capacity to influence contests both in front of and behind the ball, using GPS and game metrics to monitor load, and learning to be present rather than over-aroused before big games.
Matt also describes the quiet shift from chasing personal stats to helping teammates win, how the “voice” became his most reliable contribution, and why demanding communication lifts team standards.
Matt reflects on the move from GWS to West Coast, the awkward reset that turned into a fresh start, and the club work that gives the group a clear path to improve year on year. He is candid about the sting of narrow losses, the need to learn fast from review, and the simple metric mindset the group uses to measure progress.
