There has only ever been one gay rugby player?
Ian Roberts distinguished himself as one of Australia's great Rugby League players in the 1990s. In 1995 he made history by becoming the first Australian sportsman to openly declare himself gay. This courageous move surprised many, both because Ian did not fit many stereotypes of what a gay man acted like and because of the minimal repercussions that resulted. Ian's career continued until the end of the millenium. Sadly, Ian remains the only professional Australian gay sportsmen (and one of very few globally) courageous enough to be open about himself while playing his sport. He remains an inspiration to young men all over the world who see in him a brave, tough role model who stands against the clichés of what gay men can be. Now living in Sydney, he is currently studying acting at the National Institute of Dramatic Art. Well done m8.
Note from seb : Well maybe, there has only been one who is gaye, but that must mean there is many who are bi, just like soccer players, tennis players, boxers...etc
