Callan Elliot responds to Lachie Brook's character assassination! | EP34 - The Unused Subs
The Unused SubsShow Notes
Last week, Auckland FC’s Lachie Brook joined the Subs Bench at Tyler St Sport and took it upon himself to reveal the secret life of teammate Callan Elliot. The man Lachie described was something of a moody, angry individual, capable of abusing a postman or messing with a stranger’s car for no good reason. In this week’s episode, Callan will attempt to set the record straight and clear his name.
But not without some difficulty along the way! From an unscheduled guest popping in, to receiving absolutely no support from former mentor Paul Ifill, it’s clear that the odds are against the AFC wingback. And of course, we have to ask Callan about that brilliant own goal he scored… just to make him feel even better about himself!
Away from Lachie’s character assassination, we learn about Callan’s experience as a trialist under Marko Rudan at the Wellington Phoenix, how former Nix player David Williams nearly ‘broke’ Callan one morning at 3am, the difficulties he faced both on and off the pitch when exiting Wellington, and he provides the lowdown on his fellow Evil Twin: who is the real angry man - Callan or Lachie?
And because it’s Christmas, Paul Ifill tells a story involving Neil Warnock, a heart rate monitor, a chocolate fountain and man's best friend!? Happy holidays indeed from the lads at The Unused Subs!

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?
Cristiano Ronaldo to play on for 2030. Yep, CR7 will play at a home World Cup, at the age of 45.
