Fans are urging footy star Darcy Moore to pop the question to his ‘ultra-woke’ girlfriend Dee Salmin after the 2025 Brownlow Medal count.
The Collingwood key defender attended the AFL’s night of nights with his Triple J radio star partner on Monday, who turned heads in a couture dress, featuring intricate beading, shimmering sequins and textured floral embellishments.
However, fans of the sportsman and his beloved were quick to point out that the Brownlow ensemble was very bridal, hinting that Darcy should propose to his longtime love.
In the comments section of the 29-year-old’s Instagram post, which showed him and Dee at the prestigious annual event, fans let their thoughts be heard on the pair’s wedding-suitable attire.
‘Giving wedding vibes just saying,’ one person wrote.
Another chimed in: ‘That dress is stunning. I thought they got married!’

‘What a beautiful couple. You both scrub up nicely,’ one fan sweetly penned.
Darcy and his girlfriend Dee turned heads at the Brownlow Medal count in Melbourne on Monday night – but not just for their outfits.
The pair shared a series of highly stylised photos to Instagram ahead of the event, both pulling very serious expressions that left fans wondering if they would crack a smile at all.
Moore looked dapper in a sharp black Oscar Hunt suit with satin lapels, which he paired with a simple black turtleneck and polished leather shoes for a sleek, understated look.
A brooch pinned to his lapel added a subtle touch of flair, giving the Collingwood captain a dash of old-school sophistication.
Meanwhile, Dee revealed she was channelling a ‘sea witch’ in a dramatic strapless white gown with a keyhole cut-out under the bust.
Wearing her blonde hair slicked back into a severe bun, Salmin accentuated the sculptural drama of the dress with minimal accessories and glowing, bronzed makeup.
The statuesque couple struck several high-fashion poses in front of peach curtains, with one snap showing the radio star staring up at her towering boyfriend as he returned her intense gaze.

Salmin has developed a reputation for speaking out about her very ‘woke’ views.
In July last year, she gave an incredibly woke explanation for the fact she doesn’t want to live with the premiership-winning Collingwood skipper.
Salmin hosts Triple J radio’s The Sunday Hook Up sex education program, and she went into detail about their romance on another ABC show, Ladies, We Need To Talk… Back.
‘I don’t live with my partner at the moment and we have such different, independent, busy lives,’ she said.
‘We get to have so much of what we had when we were still single in our relationship.
‘But I wonder how much you can actually upkeep that when you do end up living together.
‘So much of it is hetero-dynamic learnt behaviours you might fall into.’
To clarify, it appears she was using those five key words to indicate she and Moore don’t conform to the heterosexual gender stereotype of women taking on the bulk of housework and domestic duties when they live with a partner.
She was supported by the show’s host, TV star turned radio personality and author Yumi Stynes, who said living together would lead to ‘domestic drudgery’ that’s ‘not sexy’ and asked if Salmin thought all couples should live separately.
‘I’m going to be doing it for as long as possible,’ Salmin said.
‘I also said to my partner we are going to have separate bedrooms [if/when they live together]. I just think it’s so important.
‘I think that it’s something you really need to make sure that you’re taking care of and working on… your partner can’t be everything,’ Salmin explained.
