Saints Tragic Gocsy, St Kilda & the Art of Backing Battlers

Episode 377 Published 5 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
Aaron “Gocsy” Gocs is back on the couch to unpack his love affair with one of footy’s great battler clubs: the St Kilda Saints. From growing up a Broncos and NRL kid in Brisbane to falling in love with Melbourne’s AFL culture, Gocsy explains how family ties, Shane Warne, Eric Bana and a bit of self-imposed suffering turned him into a diehard Saints tragic.We yarn about his unofficial role with the club, shooting vids with players, getting shouted membership when he was broke, rubbing shoulders at Best & Fairest nights and copping it non-stop from fans of richer clubs. Gocsy breaks down sports fandom, why people act like they won the premiership, and why following a struggler teaches you to actually enjoy the little wins in footy - and in life.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.
