Haters gonna hate. But here’s why we should all be Dr Rachael Gunn.
Being EXCELLENT, dammit, at too many things to count. But let’s try and count them, after a quick recap.
She was excellent at bringing the world what it most needs right now: joy. Her routine has launched literally thousands of memes and gifs, most of them hilarious and essentially good-hearted, not mean.She was excellent at embodying the most cherished Australian catchcry of all: have a go, ya mug! And by gawd, she had a go, in a manner we’ve never seen before.
She was excellent at bringing us together as a nation, as we gasped and then quickly fell in love with this unlikely hero. How long is it since we’ve all talked, mostly lovingly, about a fellow Australian, an underdog, who does sport in a different way? For we do love you Raygun, and want you to keep doing you, wherever and whenever you want. You and your routine were the very best of us, the joyous thing we all have in us, but too rarely display in public – and even then, only very late at night, at wedding receptions. From jumping like a kangaroo, to doing the sprinkler, you were all of us, all at once, and you had every right to wear that Australian uniform with pride.
