Michael Voss on coaching the Brisbane Lions

It was a decade ago that the Brisbane Lions won the first of their now legendary three-in-a-row premierships, nearly four!

The Lions have since struggled to regain such blistering form, languishing anywhere between 10th and 13th except in 2009 when, under new coach Michael Voss, the side made the semi-finals.

Voss was arguably one of the best players the AFL has ever seen, a Brownlow medallist, All-Australian team captain, someone who could turn a game around and inspire a team to victory.

Voss took up the role of senior coach when Leigh Matthews stepped aside, but that move hasn't been all smooth sailing.

Coaching any top level team, no matter what the code, is not for the faint of heart.

Michael Voss joined Kelly Higgins-Devine on 612 ABC Brisbane.
