There’s no doubt a lot of us are feeling a bit lost or struggling at the moment.

Well you’re not alone. In Bounce Back, Andrew talks to prominent Australians about major challenges that have been thrown their way, and how they’ve overcome these difficulties on the road to success.

In this episode Dr. Rochford speaks with Richmond Tigers Captain Trent Cotchin.

In 2016 The Richmond Football Club was in the dumps, finishing thirteenth. It is fair to say the fans weren't happy with some wanting to overthrow the Board and the Coach and Captain in the media firing line.

Whether Trent Cotchin was cut out to be a leader was a regular talking point, Trent himself had doubts. One year later Richmond FC are AFL Premiers, breaking a 37 Premiership drought. They followed up with another Grand Final victory in 2019.

Their Captain was then and remains Brownlow Medalist and three-time Richmond Best & Fairest Winner Trent Cotchin.

This series will feature some of Australia’s most recognised sports men and women, prominent businesspeople and well-known politicians, allowing them to tell their story, in their own words.

On the morning of the 18th of May 2019, Australians woke up to vote in the Federal Election with most expecting the Labor party to elected to Government and Bill Shorten to be Prime Minister that night.

The polls, media and public commentary all pointed to that result, after almost beating Malcolm Turnbull in 2016 Labor were confident this were their time. Soon after the polls closed things weren't looking good for Labor. This certainly wasn't the plan.

Within hours Bill Shorten had phoned Scott Morrison to congratulate him on his unlikely victory. Bill announced he would stand down as Labor leader but committed to stay in Parliament under the new leadership. He's currently the Shadow Minister for the National Disability Insurance Scheme and for Government Services.
