Russell Hoye talks to Mick Malthouse, Senior Coach of the Carlton Football Club and a Vice-Chancellor’s Fellow here at La Trobe University and Dr Mandy Ruddock-Hudson, a lecturer from the School of Public Health about the AFL coaching lifestyle. What is life like as professional coach? How do people become senior or assistant coaches in the AFL? How do coaches deal with the stress associated with their jobs? How can we conduct effective studies of coaches in such a high pressure environment?

Sport Unpacked is a regular podcast hosted by Russell Hoye, Director of La Trobe Sport.
