HE PLAYED alongside Cats legend Gary Ablett Snr, now he calls the play as a sports commentator on radio and pay TV.
But away from the spotlight Dwayne Russell’s a committed family man who met wife Lisa at 16 and volunteers as a “roadie” for his son’s band.
He invited the summer edition of Geelong Coast Magazine (GC) into his family life, split between homes in Highton and Fairhaven.
“I believe in quantity time rather than quality time,” Russell tells GC.
“I prefer spending long periods of time with my kids rather than cram in a super-duper three hours then not see them for four days.”
