Hamish McLachlan
Hamish Angus McLachlan (born 28 August 1975) is an Australian sports broadcaster with Seven Sport.
Since joining Seven Sport in 2008, McLachlan has covered multiple events including the Australian Football League (AFL), the Australian Open, the Olympics and the Commonwealth Games. He also hosted AFL Game Day (2008-2020) and co-hosted Australian Spartan (2018-2019).
Hank McLachlan began working in sports management in 1998, with Elite Sports Properties (ESP). As general manager of the Events and Entertainment Division, he was involved in multiple different sporting events, including the 2000 Summer Olympics, the 2002 Winter Olympics, the 2002 FIFA World Cup, and the 2002 Commonwealth Games.
In 2004, McLachlan became a director of the Australian Football Hall of Fame and Sensation exhibition in Melbourne. This was placed into administration two months after opening due to outstanding debts. He had previously co-founded Spyglass Management, which was awarded the licence to operate the Hall of Fame. In November 2004, the Federal Court of Australia described Spyglass Management as "hopelessly insolvent", with "many creditors, whose debts in aggregate exceed $26 million".
In January 2008, McLachlan joined Seven Sport to cover the Australian tennis season, most notably the Australian Open. His roles included conducting live interviews and filming pieces with players on the courts. In 2011, McLachlan became a host presenting the afternoon sessions, and in 2013 he took over from Johanna Griggs as anchor of the prime time sessions, a role he held until 2018.
In March 2008, McLachlan started hosting sports program AFL Game Day, an Australian Rules Football review panel television show on Sunday mornings. He also took up a role at Triple M radio as a match-day commentator, calling Saturday-night and Sunday-afternoon AFL matches. He co-hosted the 2009 and 2011 Brownlow Medal 'Blue Carpet' ceremonies with Seven News presenter, Rebecca Maddern, and fellow Seven Sport presenter, Rachel Finch, respectively.
Later in 2008, he called the Spring Racing Carnival for Triple M and he went on to become a presenter on the Seven Network's coverage of the Melbourne Cup Carnival, as well as other race days during the Spring, Autumn and Magic Millions Racing Carnivals.
Outside of Australian rules football and horse racing, McLachlan has been involved in calling polo matches. He owns Ten Goals, a small media and production unit specialising in "sports broadcasting, commentary, hosting and multimedia presentations".
