Former AFL player Mitch Brown has returned to the footy field for the first time in seven years, playing in Melbourne’s inclusive Renegade Pub Football League.
Brown, who played 94 AFL games, says he felt unable to be open about his bisexuality during his playing career and that it took years after leaving the game to become comfortable with who he was. Now, Brown wants the next generation of queer footballers to have a different experience.
