Tony Wilson - Facilitator
After an AFL football career that never ascended beyond the Hawthorn reserves, and a short stint as a lawyer at Minter Ellison, Tony Wilson has had success as a sports writer (The Age, Inside Sport, Australia United) and documentary maker (Race Around the World).
He wrote sports comedy novels, Players and Making News, and is now the author of twelve books. He was part of the Breakfasters on Triple R for six years, and is still a regular visitor to both Triple R, ABC Grandstand, and 774 ABC Melbourne.
His sports themed kids book Stuff Happens: Jack was short listed for the Readings Children's Book Prize 2015, and he's recently released two funny, rhyming picture books Emo the Emu and The Cow Tripped Over the Moon (both Scholastic, 2015).
He’s a natural speaker, MC and moderator, who loves his sport, especially the Socceroos, Matildas, Hawthorn and Melbourne Victory.
Tony has also started a website, Speakola, which collates speeches of all types; political, sporting, birthdays, weddings and eulogies, literally 'all speeches great and small'. http://speakola.com/ .
