Bailey Smith joins online dating site with added twist
AFL heart-throb Bailey Smith has invited his 376,000 Instagram followers to join him on a date. The Geelong midfielder has officially joined Tinder, and it's unlikely that he'll struggle to find any interested suitors. 'Rightio guys, I've done it, I've joined Tinder,' he revealed in a video on social media on Wednesday. 'They've just come out with a new double dating feature. 'Basically, you match with other pairs and get thrown into a group chat. 'I've got pretty busy schedule sometimes, so it's hard to get out there. 'But being able to hang out with a mate and also go on a date is pretty fun, so I'm enjoying that at the minute. 'I've got my best mate (with me on it), it's awesome, so come find us on Tinder Double Date.' The 24-year-old Brownlow Medal chance says it will be 'a fun way to mix things up'. 'I'm always with the boys, so bringing them along makes meeting people way more relaxed,' he said. 'I'm giving it a go with my best mate, so match with us and we'll see you in the group chat.' Smith has been single since splitting with his ex-girlfriend, Gemma Dawkins, last year. The pair dated for around two years, going public for the first time at Flemington's Derby Day in 2023. Smith missed the entire 2024 season with an ACL injury before requesting a trade to Geelong, where he has become one of the competition's premier midfielders. The dashing Cats star has been one of the favourites for the Brownlow all year, but has recently slipped in some predictions after missing some games. He was a late omission last week due to illness. Smith did not train last Friday and coach Chris Scott said he woke up sick on Saturday morning. It was the third time this season that Smith has been a late out.
