We’re diving into the remarkable journey of Justin Plapp, a proud Penguin local who went on to shine on the biggest stages of Aussie Rules. 

From booting 98 goals in a single season with Burnie to making an immediate splash in the AFL with Richmond, Justin's footy story is filled with highs, heartbreaks, and a whole lot of resilience. 

We’ll talk about the bright lights of the MCG, the move to St Kilda, life back in Tassie, and his evolution into a respected coach in the VFL. This is a conversation about talent, transitions, and what it takes to keep your passion alive in the ever-changing game of footy.
