Over more than two decades at the helm, Trevor transformed the Eagles from a financially troubled interstate newcomer into one of the AFL's most commercially successful clubs, competing in five grand finals and winning four premierships. Far more than a football story, this conversation is a masterclass in leadership, culture, resilience and people. Trevor reflects candidly on navigating the club's darkest chapter, the qualities that define great leaders, what it really takes to build a winning culture, and the wisdom he'd pass on to his 25-year-old self. Whether you work in sport, mining, or any people-driven organisation, the lessons here are universal.
