Darcy Vescio has an announcement

[kruddler]

The funny thing about all this is that it wouldn't even rate a thread or a mention except for the fact that Darcy is a prominent figure in the Carlton women's AFL team.

Not entirely true. I made a thread about Ellen/Elliot Page when that occured. Big enough names, get mentioned.

But yes, this specific one was because its a carlton player.

Same would occur when the first mens player actually comes out of the closet publicly. I suspect we all know someone who is gay and its not entirely big news....unless its the 'first'.
