00:02 This is me, 12 years old,

00:05 joining my first rugby club in Australia.

00:07 And this is me now.

00:10 I'm a reporter and a cameraman,

00:12 so I'm used to telling stories,

00:14 but I've never told one this personal.

00:17 Puffter, faggot.

00:22 The bullying was unrelenting, especially in sports class.

00:27 So I never imagined that a rugby club

00:29 would one day change my life.

00:31 Nibs, I found that I had these really great players

00:39 who had a real lack of self-belief.

00:41 I can be a really competent gay person,

00:44 but on the sports pitch, that doesn't belong to me.

00:46 Three, two, one, Stephen!

00:49 There's this element of being a rugby player,

00:52 even as a gay rugby player,

00:54 that there's a certain masculinity

00:56 that you need to maintain.

00:59 To me, that's bollocks.

01:01 I will be tough and brutal and kick your ass on the pitch.

01:05 When I'm off the pitch, I will be as flagrant

01:08 and as flamboyant as I want.

01:10 (crowd laughing)

01:13 I'd never had depression before,

01:17 but I was definitely at that.

01:19 I was at the lowest level of the life.

01:22 And just when I was about to walk away from rugby,

01:24 but something told me, no, rugby can still help you,

01:27 then the club and this season saved my life,

01:31 probably saved my life, you know?

01:33 ♪ Oh, I can see it ♪

01:37 ♪ I can feel it ♪

01:38 The referee often doesn't recognise me,

01:41 so I feel like I'm still needed to be validated by men.

01:44 That is all I want from you for 40 minutes.

01:47 You absolutely have it, and you,

01:49 you'll get more than that, thanks.

01:51 So for me, this isn't a coming out story

01:54 or a story about winning a tournament,

01:56 or even about being gay.

01:59 It's a story about searching for where you belong

02:03 and never giving up,

02:04 because you just might find happiness

02:07 where you least expect.
