Lachie Brook on Wondergoals, Mormon Undies & Callan Elliot EXPOSED! | EP33 - The Unused Subs
The Unused SubsShow Notes
This week on The Unused Subs it’s Lachie Brook of Auckland FC joining the bench. Where doesn’t this chat take us?! When he’s not ripping on his new ‘Best Friend Forever’ Callan Elliot we chat about his growing collection of fabulous goals in the A-League, the son of ‘Goldenballs’ Romeo Beckham, Lachie’s love of music but his disdain of sing-song football initiations, and yes, it seems that all roads lead to… Mormon underwear.
But we start with the almost-obvious first question: who did it better when Auckland met Central Coast Mariners - his BFF or Sam Cosgrove? After all, they both scored from stunning diving headers! Perhaps Cal would like to address which net he deposited the ball into, but it was splendid technique nonetheless.
Lachie has started playing more centrally in recent weeks for the Black Knights, so does he prefer that or a wider, roaming role? Playing in the middle allowed him to score in the 2nd kiwi derby, a move that he reveals came straight from the training ground!
Elsewhere, Jacob and Lachie trade David Beckham stories. How does Becks make a crisp white shirt look so damn good? Spoon also tells us about his time at Chasing the Fox with Team All Whites, and Goran has some big news to share… which is something of a Christmas present come early for the Subs. So chuck on your favourite undies, Mormon or otherwise, and enjoy the latest episode with one half of ‘The Evil Twins’, Lachlan Brook of Auckland FC! Apologies to Callan Elliot in advance.

Spain has defeated Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Final to become WORLD CHAMPIONS for the second time! On the surface, a solitary goal in extra time doesn't sound overly impressive or convincing, but dig a little deeper and you will see that this was not only a one-sided finale, but one of the most dominant World Cup campaigns, ever.
England has been defeated by Argentina in the 2026 FIFA World Cup Semifinals. And of course, the finger of blame is pointing directly at England's manager Thomas Tuchel. Were his defensive tactics in the final half hour of the clash 'cowardly' as has been reported in the UK media since the 2-1 loss?
