Coach Trent Robinson is urging Australian sport to do better in creating a safe space after his former Sydney Roosters player Kane Evans came out as gay.
In an emotional interview with Channel Nine's 100% Footy on Monday, the 131-time NRL prop became the first men's professional rugby league player to come out since Ian Roberts more than 30 years ago.
He detailed his struggles with coming to understand his sexuality, speaking candidly about his drug addiction, suicidal thoughts and homelessness.
