Billy Brownless – AFL Legend | Media Personality | Entertainer
Billy Brownless is one of the most popular figures in Australian sport and media. A former high-flying forward for Geelong, he sits third on the club’s all-time goal-kicking list, behind only Gary Ablett and Doug Wade. Known for his larger-than-life personality, Billy has entertained fans for more than 25 years both on and off the field.
After his AFL career, Billy became a household name as a regular on the Nine Network’s Logie award-winning program The Footy Show, as well as a panelist on the Sunday Footy Show. He has also enjoyed a successful radio career, including his long-running role on Triple M’s Rush Hour alongside James Brayshaw, which quickly became a drive-time favourite across Australia.
As a speaker and event host, Billy brings the same humour and energy that have made him a media mainstay. With countless anecdotes from his football and media career, he is a guaranteed hit at awards dinners, sportsmen’s nights, charity events and corporate functions.
Billy is also the author of two books – Billy’s Book for Blokes (2008) and The Best Man Walks Into a Bar Jokes (2009) – further showcasing his wit and comedic flair.
A much-loved character, father of four, and natural storyteller, Billy Brownless ensures every event he attends is both entertaining and memorable.
