‘Out of my face, mate’: England security guard clashes with a cameraman at Brisbane Airport

The incident involved a security guard pushing a Channel 7 cameraman away while enforcing media distance rules during England's Ashes team departure, officials said.

  • On Saturday at Brisbane Airport, an England team security guard confronted Nick Carrigan, 7NEWS camera operator, as the team prepared to depart for Adelaide ahead of the third Test.
  • Travel-Day directives required players from both sides be unavailable for interviews, while Cricket Australia and NRMA Ashes organisers asked images be taken from a respectful distance at Brisbane Airport.
  • Footage shows the security guard repeatedly yelling `Get out of my face mate, out my face, out my face!` while trying to block Channel 7, pushing players aside and a cameraman through terminals.
  • The matter is being managed through appropriate channels, the England and Wales Cricket Board spokesperson declined to comment, and the English camp later asked security staff not to go physical with reporters.
  • Australian media have been a persistent thorn for the England touring side, with this clash marking at least a second rift amid scrutiny of security and poor results.
