Episode 155: Brandon Starcevich (AFL) Own Your Space

Brandon Starcevich joins Chris Titley for a grounded, thoughtful conversation about change, pressure and backing yourself when the spotlight is on. Fresh off a move back to Perth and into a new club environment, Brandon reflects on leaving Brisbane after a premiership run, navigating free agency and choosing what felt right personally rather than purely professionally. He opens up about being an intensity driven defender who relies on preparation and mental sharpness to compete with more naturally gifted opponents. From spending hours studying matchups to grounding himself through breathing and visualisation before running out, Brandon explains how he manages big game nerves and turns emotional energy into focus. He shares the shift from early career hype and pressure to appreciating the moment, smiling before a packed stadium and embracing the noise rather than fearing it. There is honesty around setbacks too. Brandon talks about injuries, the frustration of watching from the sidelines, and the discipline required to attack rehab so that when opportunity returns he is ready. He reflects on the sting of losses, the importance of reviewing vision with coaches to properly put games to bed, and the mindset of staying even keel across a long season. A powerful thread through the episode is belief. Brandon revisits a pivotal under 18 moment when a tough conversation with Peter Sumich forced him to lift his standards and truly commit. Later in his AFL journey, advice about “owning your space” from David Boon became a mental anchor. Whether it is a one on one contest, a matchup, or a moment late in a game, he believes in claiming responsibility for what is directly in front of him. Off the field, Brandon is leaning into business with a new venture called Club Scout, aimed at bringing data driven valuations into local football recruiting. It reflects his broader interest in growth beyond the game and understanding value, opportunity and long term impact. 🔗 Show notes This episode was Powered by Swyftx — Where can crypto take you?👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://swyftx.com/about/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Join over 1.5m users in Australia and NZ The Do You Budget Segment is powered by PocketSmith.
