In nearly 130 years of Australian Rules no male player has revealed they're bi-sexual, until now. Former West Coast player Mitch Brown has opened up about his sexuality at a time where the sport has been grappling with multiple cases of homophobic slurs, headlined by last week's Izak Rankine saga. It's a powerful moment for the LGBTQIA+ community inside and outside the sport and has the capacity to make huge positive change. Featured: Marnie Vinall, journalist, ABC Sport.
