ANDREW RULE

'They're the best stories to write … it's like big wave surfing; it's the big stuff.'

Andrew Rule's passions are sport and crime and today he writes about both for the Herald Sun, as well as writing books and podcasting. But it was when he was on The Age earlier in his career that he wrote two award-winning investigative stories that continue to have an impact on the key characters today. Among his many honours, Rule was twice awarded the prestigious Graham Perkin Australian Journalist of the Year.
