Mark McLinden's not the next David Pocock. The former Canberra Raider sees activism rather than politics as where he can do the most good for the environment.

McLinden was arrested, fined $5000 and banned from attending future games after he ran onto the field during the NRL grand final between Penrith and Parramatta at Stadium Australia last Sunday.
