Had to say thanks to the bloke in the St Kilda top at the gym - I’ve just anger-lifted my PB in every exercise.

STFU

Wet.

Still drying off City2Surf run and done for 2025

Unsure if “homophobic language is ok if you get a bit angry” is the best argument to go with

The Rankine punishment being drawn out creates another day of media and vile social media comments. That’s what young kids are reading. I recognise everyone deserves due process, but the extended process helps nobody - especially young LGBTQ+ people. Parameters were set.

Had a brief chat to Andrew Bucklow for the news.com.au podcast about the Izak Ranike issue and my experience in footy open.spotify.com/episode/5MqZIk…

I’ve been reminded that it’s two years since I featured on the 4 Corners episode “The Silence” on homophobia in football. Feels pretty relevant today. The full episode is available on iView or YouTube youtu.be/QcH0yFq-bbE?si…

Izak Rankine has accepted his punishment and acknowledged his wrongdoing. He is not to blame for the AFL changing their mind regarding the punishment. There is no need to continue to hurl abuse in his direction. We hope he learns, and we move on.

Not many out gay men with a history in Aussie rules, which makes Mike O’Donnell (Michael O'Donnell 👏) an important voice amid lots of noise surrounding Izak Rankine and the latest #AFL homophobic slur incident. Don’t be distracted by Snoop Dogg. For Outsports outsports.com/2025/8/21/2411…

Going on TV to talk about Snoop Dogg was not on my bingo card

Mum went into a false labour with me on this day and it made Dad miss this game. Sorry Dad.

It’s sensational Mitch has come to a place where he feels confident & safe enough to talk about this. It’s such an important step and not only will it help the next generation of players, it will also help educate those he played alongside Congratulations and thank you, Mitch

Some responses to those questioning the importance of Mitch Brown’s coming out: - “who cares?”. Me. I care. Lots. - Don’t want politics in football?Sexuality is not politics, it’s humanity. - Don’t want to know what he does in the bedroom? That’s ok - no one’s inviting you in.

Unfortunately the booing of Quaynor is proving the point of so many that believe the AFL is not ready for an openly gay player on the field. Adelaide fans that are booing are saying so much more about themselves than they are about anything else. #aflcrowspies

My interview on RRR about the importance of Mitch Brown’s coming out. If anything, my Monday morning voice post-playing footy is worth the laugh rrr.org.au/on-demand/segm…

It was Izak Rankine’s fault he didn’t play last night. No one else’s. Homophobic comments on field should be called out and punished - and will continue to be.

Genuinely intrigued as to why Izak Rankine doesn’t have the red X next to his name at the #brownlowmedal

Hurts to see Petracca and Oliver depart the Dees. Forever two of my favourite Melbourne players. I do thank them, however, for choosing to go to the least offensive teams possible. I wish them both success.

6am coastal walk in Sydney. Not usually in my wheelhouse, but it’s not hard to see why people get up and do it daily.
