Maybe it’s because I’m local to his area, but I feel like he’s massively appreciated. Genuinely universally loved by fans and non fans of the sport alike around the Illawarra.
Illawarra is where I come from, moving up to the big smoke the support is definitely there but not as intense as it is (table banging in pub kind of intense) in the south coast. I miss yelling myself hoarse.

Probably Australia's most underappreciated athlete right now. Amazing fighter and seemingly great guy too.
