You are not wrong, but I would not have personally used a photo of him from when he was 15 to demonstrate how attractive he was.

He has the hello neighbor hair
Sadly, he’s a pretty heavily sanitised national icon. He’s a folk hero, but his issues with Australia’s extremely corrupt police force are largely ignored or dismissed as a “product of their times” (ignoring the fact that the same colonial police from back then is still the foundation for the police of Australia to this day).
