277: Ange Postecoglou (Player Profile)

August 26, 2026 · 12 min

Show notes

To celebrate a decade of The Howie Games, Howie launches the Millionaires Club, a special three-guest series featuring the podcast's most downloaded guests ever.

First up: Ange Postecoglou - our first ever three time guest. And still the stories are flowing. 

From South Melbourne to Brisbane Roar, the Socceroos, Yokohama, Celtic and Tottenham, Ange has built one of the most remarkable coaching careers in Australian sporting history, winning the 2015 Asian Cup, a J.League title, multiple Scottish trophies and the 2025 Europa League.

But this FRESH Player Profile goes beyond the trophies.

Ange explains why the Ted Lasso comparisons annoyed him, remembers running into a skinny young Max Gawn running around Melbourne Victory hallways, and reveals his Carlton football heroes in a brilliant quickfire.

Funny, passionate, self-deprecating and unapologetically Ange.
