Kyle Pollard

@GFearnett G'day Glen. Totally agree, and there's more to be done. I worked on a lot of these stories in the background with Russell and have seen first hand the incredible work he's put together. He's a gem of a person.

@KylePollard Hey Kyle. Russell’s body of work on CSA at Beaumaris PS and other Govt schools, St Kilda FC etc deserves to acknowledged. ABC should consider putting it all together. From Rod’s story to Ian’s He helped create BOI in Ed Dept

Five years of work went into this story. It's long, but it's worth every word. I've never edited and produced a story that has had a more profound impact on me. Absolutely gut-wrenching, the entire thing. abc.net.au/news/2026-05-1…

@KarenWalkerCM Oh Karen the thank you belongs to you, Michael and Russell for sharing Ian’s story. I played such a small part but felt so much care for Ian by the end of it. You have done your brother proud.

@KylePollard Thank you Kyle for the work you did.

Incredible that Charlie Cameron is every chance to go into outright second this season as a small forward.

The top 40 AFL finals goalkickers since 2000. Put the question to several people about who the top three are and without fail they’d get the top two, but have no idea about third. (And who remembers the @davidking34 #randombag to start the new millennium of finals footy?)

@CapitalCityCody @cdesilva23 Fair point.

@KylePollard @cdesilva23 I think the point here is that Atkins is versatile to rotate in other roles through the game and across his career. Scott's alluding to Tsatas not having that ability, which means he has to be top of top. You've also got general role deployment within mid groups contest/post.

So he's saying Elijah Tsatas needs to win a Brownlow to play inside mid at freaking Essendon? If only the same selection integrity applied to the one-way running senior players at the club. Just ridiculous double-standards at this point.

Glass or no glass, I maintain that level at Carrara is the best place to see the footy in the country. Beautiful watching experience.

Malcom Rosas joins the #randombags club with Joel Amartey. Still not sure what the cut off for a “bag” is though. 7 feels like a bag.

The closing line on this from Dean is fantastic. abc.net.au/news/2026-05-0…

Young journos, if I can give you one piece of advice, let it be this: Do not normalize not having boundaries. Take it from someone who's been there - in the moment, it might feel OK sacrificing your vacation, your after-hours peace, your sanity. But it will catch up with you.

Very sincere thank you to all involved 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

A loss being felt by the Geelong football community. Condolences to the Christensen family.

Worpel must be a major concern. Extraction just isn’t there. Has to be noted that losing the best two footy brains of Blicavs and Miers stings but two players don’t make a team.

Not sure if it’s opposition negating or a game plan change but the wing play of Geelong from last year has disappeared this year. Running forwards also have a bad start to the season. #AFLPowerCats

The JUH footage is so good. That's a guy wants to play footy. Hardwick excellent with the announcement as well. x.com/GoldCoastSUNS/…

NEXT LEVEL 🤯🤯 14-year-old Charlotte Ehioghae has clocked 23.07 (+0.3) to set a new Under 16 Girls 200m championship record in Brisbane, posting the second fastest Australian Under 18 time ever behind only Raelene Boyle. #AthleticsNation #ThisIsQueensland #VisitBrisbane
