Anthony “Kouta” Koutoufides is a former award winning AFL player and a Carlton Football Club legend, playing over 270 games for the club. Anthony was often referred to as the ‘Prototype of the Modern Footballer’ as he was notably athletic and versatile, allowing him to play almost every position throughout his career.
Koutoufides – who insisted he was independent and not in any way aligned with the Liberal Party – said he was committed to bringing Melbourne “back alive”.
“Where are the people? People don’t come in. It’s too hard. It’s not enticing,” he said.
He said he was also familiar with adversity. In his footy career, he underwent a 10-day “torture camp” at which he cried nearly every day.
“I had to endure quite a bit, but if you have that goal and love for it, you push through,” he said.
One of Koutoufides’ primary policies is to take on the work-from-home culture and force CBD-based employees back into the office at least four days a week.
