About this listen
Phoenix Trinidad and Mitch Keating sit down with AFL commentator and former Geelong and Port Adelaide player Dwayne Russell, who’s added another title to his résumé — novelist.
Dwayne talks about his debut fiction book 'Killing for Sport', a fast-paced art world thriller two decades in the making. He dives deep into his inspirations, his love of music, his Beatles obsession, the art of great commentary, and what it’s really like calling the big AFL moments live on air.
