Episode Synopsis

In Episode 8 of Scoreboard, host Chris Titley sits down with Bulldogs premiership hero Dale Morris to unpack one of the most inspiring AFL journeys—from countless rejections as a teenager to delivering one of the most iconic grand final moments of all time.Dale shares how he was overlooked year after year, trained without guarantees, and mailed out VHS tapes just to get noticed. He reflects on his “last chance” rookie trial, the coaches who backed him, and the moment he got the call-up that changed his life.From dodging media during sneaky fitness tests to visualising every second of his debut, Dale walks us through the lead-up to that unforgettable tackle on Buddy Franklin and how it felt to finally climb the AFL mountain.Now coaching at the Lions, Dale talks about building culture, managing pressure, and staying ready—whether you're lining up for a grand final or coaching from the box.💥 Pure grit, humble wisdom, and the kind of underdog energy that never gets old.📌 Subscribe for more athlete stories and insights.Follow us at: ⁠⁠⁠⁠www.scoreboardpodcast.com⁠⁠⁠⁠insta: @scoreboardpody: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@Scoreboardpodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠p: Partnership opportunities – ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/ctitley/⁠⁠⁠⁠#sport #business #life #ScoreboardPodcast
