In this raw and revealing chat, the former Bomber opens up about the highs and lows of his career, including the supplements scandal that derailed the Bombers and the heartbreak of watching his Bulldogs teammates win the 2016 flag while he was sidelined. Crameri takes us inside the Bombers' supplements program, revealing he and his teammates "didn't blink an eye" when told to take injections and didn't realize the trouble it would cause. He talks about the constant "groundhog day" of having to face the media scrutiny, Jobe Watson's incredible leadership through the crisis, and the "devastation" of ultimately being banned for a year. The big-hearted country boy also shares the setbacks and rejections he faced early in his career, moving to Melbourne and staying in a "terrible" hostel to chase his AFL dream, his special bond with coach Brendan McCartney, and how he managed to still perform on the field despite the mental toll of the saga.

When Andrew Russell was called into Kevin Sheedy’s office at the Hilton Hotel as a teenager and offered a job, not in his wildest dreams would he have been able to predict the three decade high performance career that included six premierships across three clubs that was to come. Russell was there at the end of the Bombers dynasty, Port’s ‘04 choke-breaker and the start of the Hawks decade of dominance. From Stuart Dew to Luke Hodge and Cyril Rioli, Russell made a career out of preparing premiership players. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

And yet, when Andrew Russell made the shift from a four-premiership winning stint at Hawthorn to Carlton, it was seen as joining the missing link holding the Blues back. So why, five years later, did the 26 year AFL industry career of Andrew Russell end in disappointment? So, what happened?

Sheedy, Clarkson, Malthouse, Pagan, Thomas, Frawley, Blight, Bailey, McCartney, Lyon. To close out season 5 of Sacked: AFL, we’ve gone back and delved deeper into the 10 greatest modern coach sackings since 2000. And who better to come on that journey than a pair of esteemed journos who saw it all happen up close, and, at times, were the first to know. Jon ‘Ando’ Anderson was there at some of the most important sporting events for the Herald Sun over the past four decades and is still a key member of the Sunday Herald Sun team with his weekly Ando’s Shout. Bruce ‘Beva’ Eva is a Saints tragic and has seen it all since he began on the Herald sports desk in the late ‘80s and has gone on to Inside Football, SEN and now, 3AW.

Damian Drum spent more time as the next AFL coach in waiting than he did in the hot seat given he was up for roles as coach of the Swans, Demons and almost had the Collingwood job before moving to Fremantle. In one of the most notorious coach axings in AFL history, Drum learned of his sacking on live TV - just 9 games into his third season in the top job. And yet, it allowed the former shed builder to embark on his most consequential role yet - two decades as a member of state and federal parliament.

Damian Drum - Barass the man who couldn't lie 53:25

vor 39 weeks53:25

53:25

Damian Drum was a late-bloomer when he was plucked out of bush footy by Geelong at the age of 20 and spent eight frustrating seasons battling to 63 games. And yet, it was only another injury sustained in the 1989 Preliminary Final that denied him the notorious role on Dermott Brereton eventually performed by Mark Yates in the opening moments of the famous 89 Grand Final. Drum would eventually become famous as the last one to know he’d been sacked as Fremantle coach, but that journey got its start in Sydney as an assistant at the Swans, as the right-hand of the man who couldn’t lie, Ron Barassi.

Mal Michael played 238 games including the historic three-peat of premierships with the Brisbane Lions. But it might never have happened in the first place. PNG born Michael was brought from his hometown of Brisbane to Collingwood with no promises and very little money but was able to turn himself into the fearsome full-back of the Lions dynasty. And yet, it is the one that got away - their chance of four in a row in 2004 - that stayed with Michael for years. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.…

Alastair Lynch played over 300 games for Fitzroy, the Brisbane Bears and then the Brisbane Lions in a career that spanned 16 years. It was a career that had incredible highs, devastating lows and one five minute brain fade right at the end. A three time premiership player with the Lions, Lynch spent much of the mid to late 90s in bed with chronic fatigue having previously broken Roys fans hearts by signing a notorious 10 year contract to defect to the Brisbane Bears in 1993.

Nathan Burke has been involved in elite football across five decades and was involved in some of the biggest stories in that time. Towards the end of his playing career, Burke had a seat at the table for the incredible recruitment of Malcolm Blight as senior Saints coach and he was at the Saints through the tumult that was the Thomas and Lyon eras. Burke was also at the business end of the early days of the AFLW as coach of the Western Bulldogs. And don’t forget his role in helping Trent Cotchin to beat a suspension in the lead up to the 2017 Grand Final in his time on the Match Review Panel.

Nathan Burke played 323 games with St Kilda across three decades, and took the field with some of the best of the modern era - Lockett, Frawley, Harvey, Winmar, Loewe. He captained the club and played in a heartbreaking Grand Final loss in 1997 but was in teams that finished in the bottom four as much as they spent in contention. And when his playing career was over, it was a seat on the Saints board that brought him back to Moorabbin, and a front row seat to the turmoil that was the end of Ross Lyon’s first tenure as Saints coach.

Daniel Harford - The larrikin footballer 44:34

44:34

Daniel Harford was a top 10 draft pick and Vic Metro under 18 captain when he was taken by the Hawks. Harford went on to play 153 games in the brown and gold (and nine in a single season with Carlton). He was cocky and sure of himself with a good dose of self deprecation, that made Harford a favourite of the footy variety shows of the late 90s and early 2000s. The larrikin nature prepared him perfectly for a life as a breakfast radio host, but it was his footy smarts that gave Harford the edge as senior coach of the Blues AFLW team.
