Dee Salmin has been spotted running errands in Melbourne after announcing that she will not be attending the 2026 Brownlow Medal count.
The WAG, who is the girlfriend of Collingwood captain Darcy Moore, made the decision in the wake of the Sydney Swans sexual assault allegations.
The 31-year-old appeared downcast and pensive as she popped out to grab some supplies, a day after revealing that she plans to boycott the AFL awards night.
Leaving her usual, eye-catching fashion pieces at home, Dee was casually dressed in black tracksuit pants and a black oversized jumper.
She added a pair of sneakers and a pale green headband, while going makeup-free for the outing.
Her long, blonde hair was worn down around her face and repeatedly got caught in gusts of wind.

Dee picked up fresh juice, a tub of yoghurt, and a box of supplies including a head of broccoli.
She also carried a number of takeaway containers, as well as her mobile phone.
Salmin had slammed 'the culture surrounding AFL' in a lengthy post on her Substack page this week – however, on Tuesday, she said those comments were 'taken out of context' by some.
In a video shared on Instagram, she provided that further context, which included her explanation that she spoke up after being repeatedly asked what fashion pieces she would be wearing to this year's awards ceremony, since she attended last year.
The podcaster had written that this year, she has 'decided not to go' to the prestigious AFL awards event, despite attending previous ceremonies and enjoying the experience.
