Football Belongs: Australia's Football Identity, by Optus Sport

Welcome to Optus Sport's podcast instalment of the Football Belongs title, with a series charting the cultural threads of Australian society through the lens of nine football matches.


The Football Belongs title was launched by Optus Sport in 2020 to tell the often unheralded stories of Europe’s contribution to Australian football and society.


Hosted by David Davutovic and featuring John Didulica - the inspiration behind the series - as well as a long list of Australian sporting personalities, they will explore how football has played a fundamental role in shaping our nation and examine the game struggles to penetrate the mainstream - to the point that the sport continues to get diminished at every turn.


In December 2021, Football Belongs was named the Best Sports Podcast at the 2021 Australian Podcast Awards.



Produced & edited by Lucas Perry, Optus Sport.

Ep. 6 - First Nations People: John Moriarty's quest | The failures of a nation and a game | Giving voice to Aboriginal Australians

Ros Moriarty and Travis Dodd are the special guests on this episode of Football Belongs, as they join John Didulica and David Davutovic to have a powerful conversation about:


  • The outrageous notion of Aussie football superstar John Moriarty being selected to represent his country - before being allowed to vote
  • An unheralded role football and its migrant communities played in embracing the First Nations people
  • The Socceroos’ 1960 tour of South-East Asia - and why it was cancelled
  • Difficulties faced by Indigenous culture and football culture in gaining legitimacy and acceptance in mainstream Australia.
