@HistoryMOB@dublincomments@sanguine61981@IsraelOlatunde5@set_speedet@irishathletics I’m equally proud of my heritage being of Aboriginal and of Irish descent that is what shaped me as a man I’m today and being born as a Australian. My hope is that we can all share in the success that anything is possible no matter your situation, location or heritage.
