Triple J’s Alex turns to footy
Triple J's Breakfast announcer Alex Dyson is a man of many talents.
He is regarded as quite a handy Australian Rules player, and turned out last week for Sydney University, after receiving a clearance from his former club near Warrnambool 'Russells Creek'.
Sydney University, with Dysons assistance, defeated Illawarra by 14 points and he was named best on field.
Dyson also was awarded best on field for the 'Sydney Sailors' recently. The Sailors are a team featuring radio and entertainment identities including Adam Spencer, Scott Dooley, Fitzy & Wippa, Merrick Watts and Brett Kirk.
Their opponent in the one off, annual, game was made up Sydney-based musicians. The annual match is called the 'Reclink Community Cup' and raised money for disadvantaged Australians through sports and arts programs.
