Billy Brownless BILLY BROWNLESS Talent Profile © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com A loveable character on and off air, Billy Brownless has enjoyed a 25-year connection to footy fans through the media since hanging up the boots. NATIONALITY CAPABILITIES Australian Guest Panellist Ambassador DATE OF BIRTH Social Media 1/28/67 PR Campaign Appearances TEAMS INTERESTS Geelong Football Club Triple M Lifestyle Nine Network Wellbeing Leadership Family Business © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com BIO Brownless first came to prominence as a high-flying forward for Geelong. Growing up in Jerilderie in southern NSW, Brownless was a schoolboy star with Assumption College before making his debut with Cats in 1986. The proud father of four has son Oscar following in his footsteps, with the young midfielder in to his second year on the Cats’ AFL list. Brownless made his senior VFL debut in Round 1, 1986 and quickly made a name for himself as a strong full-forward, winning the Cats’ best first year player award that year. Twice he led Geelong’s goalkicking, was All-Australian in 1991 and had a thirst for the big occasion. Nine goals in the 1992 Qualifying Final, eight in the classic 1991 Elimination Final win over St Kilda and an average of three goals per game across the four Grand Finals he played in stamped his qualities. Today, he sits fifth with 441 goals on Geelong all-time list, alongside iconic names Gary Ablett Snr, Doug Wade, Tom Hawkins and Steve Johnson. © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com For the past decade, Billy and good friend James Brayshaw have been part of Melbourne’s drive home as hosts of ‘The Rush Hour’ on Triple M. Their camaraderie and connection to their listeners continues in 2020 in the all-new timeslot of 6-7pm. He also can be heard as part of Triple M Footy’s weekend coverage of games. On Television, Billy was a central member of the halcyon days of the Logie-award The Footy Show on the Nine Network. Memories of ‘Billy’s Wheel’ making it’s way to local footy clubs on a Thursday Night will remain part of TV folkolore. Billy continues to be part of the panel on Nine’s Sunday Footy Show that looks back at all the action of the AFL round each Sunday morning. Billy has had a longstanding relationship with CUB for many years and for the last two years has been an ambassador for Pointsbet.

  • Week9 E-Record .Indd
    E-Footy RECORD 31st May 2008 Issue 9 Editorial with Marty King AFL AND AFLPA SET TO MOVE ON NEW ALCOHOL POLICY It’s terrifi c to see the AFL and the AFL Players Association working collaboratively to formulate a new policy on responsible alcohol consumption in the football environment. They are seeking feedback from each of the 16 AFL clubs, together with key national drug and alcohol experts, before framing a policy with guidelines that all AFL clubs and associated bod- ies like AFL Queensland can use to develop their own. This comes after a lot of background work was done over almost two years and the AFL Com- mission received a full briefi ng. The AFL, the Players’ Association and the AFL clubs understand that quite clearly that they have a responsibility to promote responsible drinking within the AFL and among the 16 clubs, the players and staff. But it’s not just about the elite level. The same will apply at the grassroots level and we at AFLQ will look to partner with the League on this important initiative. The guidelines within the AFL Framing Policy will provide a framework for AFL clubs and asso- ciated bodies to assist them in developing their own individual club responsible alcohol policies. The AFL Framing Policy lists a set of objectives for players and club staff, including the devel- opment of approaches for responsible consumption, effective pathways for treatment of alco- hol-related problems, creating responsible drinking cultures and using player welfare oriented and education-based approaches to promote responsible alcohol consumption.

  • Going Down the Hole Beaconsfield, Celebrities and the Changing News Culture in Australia JASON BAINBRIDGE
    going down the hole Beaconsfield, Celebrities and the Changing News Culture in Australia JASON BAINBRIDGE We didn’t realise the hype would be as big as it has been, and it hasn’t really sunk in yet. When we were down the hole one day, I remember tapping Brant on the shoulder and asking him if he thought we’d make the front page of The [Launceston] Examiner, our local paper. Then we get out and Oprah wants to interview us! Todd Russell1 I would like my life to settle down and to be normal again … Before we could go outside and there would be no cameras on us but now cameras follow Dad and everyone wants his autograph … And I wish the media would mind its business because they say things that are not true. Maddison Russell (Todd Russell’s daughter, from a writing competition)2 — Introduction By the time this article sees print, the events at Beaconsfield, Tasmania will have joined a backlog of similar news moments, largely unremembered by all but those who were personally affected by what happened there. Yet for fourteen days in mid-2006 this small mining town became, like so many places before it, ‘the network executive’s best friend’3 and an indication of a significant change in the way television news is reported and packaged in Australia. At 9.23 pm, on 25 April (Anzac Day), a rockfall at the Beaconsfield gold mine killed miner Larry Knight (his body was recovered two days later). On 30 April, two miners—Todd Russell and Brant Webb—were discovered to still be alive one kilometre underground.
