England Security Staffer Confronts Channel 7 Cameraman at Brisbane Airport as Team Departs for Adelaide

Seven says it is handling the incident through formal channels to protect its staff.

Overview

  • Channel 7 aired video showing the guard blocking and pushing the camera while repeating “Out of my face, mate,” as England left Brisbane for Adelaide.
  • The cameraman was identified as Nick Carrigan, who said he was left shocked by the encounter.
  • Seven stated the operator was filming respectfully in a public area and said the matter is being managed through appropriate channels.
  • Cricket Australia’s transit rules call for “vision only” from a respectful distance; Seven maintains its crew complied, and the ECB declined to comment.
  • The Guardian identified the minder as Colin Rhooms, and separate reports described a later exchange involving Ben Stokes in Adelaide, with no public disciplinary outcome announced.
