@NoToHomophobia Thanks for highlighting & acknowledging this interview from 2002 in Blue magazine which was sold Internationally

[Matt Hall @matthall1972]

@CarolineLayt @mqff @FilmFreeway Congratulations! Thoroughly well deserved. Love your work Caz

@matthall1972 @jasonballau Brilliant article about you Matt. Well done and looking forward to working with you in the near future.

[Matt Hall @matthall1972]

@KirstiMiller30 Please call me. Thank You xo

[Matt Hall @matthall1972]

Very happy with this article which is based on actual facts unlike the proven false claims made by Jason Ball who was not the first Australian rules footballer to publicly come out as gay in an interview. Jason has built his entire career on a significant lie @jasonballau

@RefJackie @KirstiMiller30 @BreeGorman13 @proud2playinc 1/2's already been filmed Jackie. Not that part though. Kirsti & I have experience on being used & then discarded by these orgs. Mr Storr picked my brains for conference on Thursday, had it following weekend, which I wasn't invited to speak at. These orgs erase @matthall1972 too

@PrideofTerraces @LEAPsports @hughlio @PrideHouseIntl @SportsMediaLGBT Thank you for speaking with me and highlighting the fact that I was the very first Australian rules footballer at any level to publicly come out as gay in an interview in an Internationally sold magazine in 2002.

@JMcKMelbourne @matthall1972 @KirstiMiller30 @QueerGreensVic @TraceyLeeHolmes Love Matt, he’s a champion @JMcKMelbourne like yourself. As you’re aware he always great to interview, as he always researches the subject matter and is likely an expert himself such as when we talked about mental health issues in my film.

[Matt Hall @matthall1972]

@CarolineLayt @KirstiMiller30 @QueerGreensVic @TraceyLeeHolmes Congratulations!!! You have come a long way and are so talented.
I’m ready for anything you require.

@CarolineLayt @matthall1972 @QueerGreensVic @matthall1972 historic victory in the courts opened the doors for a whole global community of already stigmatised people living with HIV enabling to play full contact sports like everyone else can. He walked Kokoda Matt’s story is an Oscar winner in waiting.

[Kirsti Miller @KirstiMiller30]

Isn't Jason Ball an ambassador for @beyondblue they would understand how erasure can kill. Jason needs to @matthall1972 first and alsonhonour Australia Day award and acknowledge it was received on fulse pretences.

[Caroline Layt @CarolineLayt]

@KirstiMiller30 @matthall1972 @QueerGreensVic Since early 2000s that should say. As you’re aware @matthall1972 is a true Aussie LGBTQ pioneer! @KirstiMiller30

[Kirsti Miller @KirstiMiller30]

Could someone at @PrideCup have these records corrected re Jason Ball. I thank you for previously correcting your website.
@afldiversity

[Caroline Layt @CarolineLayt]

Is important for the record ... @matthall1972 is credited in my film festival award winning documentary “Is this Queensland in the 20s” as being the first openly gay aussie rules player via Blue Magazine in the early 200s @KirstiMiller30

[Kirsti Miller @KirstiMiller30]

@PrideinSportAU @PrideCup @matthall1972 @AFL @CarolineLayt Why is @PrideinSportAU engaging with groups like @PrideCup & ProudtoPlay one is homophobic the other transphobic CEO Ryan Storr accusing trans women in sports for displaying male privilege & @PrideCup founder erasing a gay trailblazer.
#Transphobia
#Homophobia

[Kirsti Miller @KirstiMiller30]

@PrideinSportAU Why is @PrideCup founder Jason Ball still erasing @matthall1972 from the history books? Jason Ball was not the first openly gay man to play Aussie Rules football it was @matthall1972 a decade before him. @PrideCup are committing homophobic erasure in the @AFL @CarolineLayt

[Matt Hall @matthall1972]

The facts are the facts. I was first to come out in 2002. Jason Ball has deliberately lied about the truth repeatedly to the Australian public for his own self promotion & ego. He has failed to acknowledge facts & be honest by publicly stating that I was first 10 years earlier!!!

[Caroline Layt @CarolineLayt]

💯per cent @matthall1972 was via Blue Magazine around the same time Ian Roberts appeared in the same magazine.

One of my first videos I made was about Matt when I was a journalism student.
