The former AFL player and coach and motor neurone disease (MND) advocate was named Australian of the Year on the weekend, a decision that has been met with plenty of public support.
“It’s still sinking in, really,” Jan told Gerard Whateley on SEN.
“He gets himself up for any occasion that is important. He was totally chuffed but the whole thing.
“It was pretty amazing.”
