Football Commentator Simon Hill

The Risk Equation

Millions of people watching, hanging on your every word. What you say next will be played countless times, acting as a moment in history for your country and the world. Simon Hill has faced these moments hundreds of times before, commentating World Cups, Champions Leagues and Asian Cups, acting as the voice of Australian Soccer for more than 20 years.

You’ll know him from Aloisi’s penalty or Tim Cahill’s goal in Kaiserslautern. He’s recognised and celebrated as one of the country’s great media personalities and is cherished by Australian sports culture.

On this week’s episode of The Risk Equation, Dr Chris Maguire explores how Simon overcame his greatest failure, what gave him the edge in those high pressure moments and how he is channelling experiences from 20 years ago to overcome challenges he faces today.
