Family & friends are the most important treasures in my life. Weaknesses include: shopping, travelling & the Sydney Swans. Not necessarily in that order ;)
Heeney was instrumental in the Swans 16-point victory, finishing with game-highs of 38 disposals and 10 clearances, as well as two goals.
Heeney claimed the Goodes O-Loughlin Medal and becomes the first Swan to win the medal three times.
I am honoured to accept the title of Australian of the Year 2025. This award belongs to the MND community, the countless Australians who have joined this fight and my wife Jan, our children & their partners, who have supported me every step of the way.
