About

The Roar is an independently owned and run Australian sports opinion website, established by brothers Zac and Zolton Zavos in 2007.

The site features the writing of some of Australia’s best up and coming sports columnists, alongside that of more established names such as Spiro Zavos, Geoff Lawson and Jesse Fink, and ‘Roar of the Crowd’ articles written by our well-informed and opinionated reader base.

So it’s a mix of expert opinion and reader generated content.

The Roar reaches passionate sports fans, people who know sports so well that they’re no longer prepared to just consume content. They want to either comment on analysis or write their own articles (we call these ‘Roar of the crowds’). The combination is an article — and a website — which is much more interesting than if it were purely a one-way dialogue.

The Roar aims to make a difference to Australian sport, and has done so already by putting the thoughts of our readers direct to some of Australian sports’ leading administrators.

The Roar’s expert columnists include:

In addition to our columnists, we have daily content via AAP and a growing army of citizen journalists from around the world. This distribution of contributors allows us to break stories, like this one, before mainstream media can.

The Roar is published by Conversant Media Pty Ltd and can be reached at PO Box 225, The Junction, NSW 2291 Australia.

The team include Zac Zavos and Zolton Zavos.
