They may be labeled as outcasts or rebels, but in reality, they're the ones who are brave enough to challenge the status quo and forge their own path. Let's celebrate the black sheep in our lives - the ones who inspire us to think differently, to question the norms, and to embrace our individuality.

Australia becomes the first World Cup team to slam Qatar over the deaths of up to 6,500 foreign workers building stadiums?for?the?event.

Australia's Socceroos have publicly slammed Qatar ahead of next month's World Cup  over the deaths of up to 6,500 foreign workers building stadiums for the event and laws that make being gay illegal. 

They are the first FIFA World Cup squad to release a statement of protest, where they also highlighted the ongoing 'suffering' of local workers ahead of the sporting tournament.

The video message, delivered by 16 players, has the support of Football Australia, who released their own statement on the matter.

FA insist the 'suffering' of workers and their families stemming from the tournament 'cannot be ignored.'

'We stand with FIFPro, the Building and Wood Workers International, and the International Trade Union Confederation, seeking to embed reforms and establish a lasting legacy in Qatar,' the video outlines.

'This must include establishing a migrant resource centre, effective remedy for those who have been denied their rights, and the decriminalisation of all same-sex relationships. 
'These are the basic rights that should be afforded to all and will ensure continued progress in Qatar ... [and] a legacy that goes well beyond the final whistle of the 2022 FIFA World Cup.'
The Australian players involved in the video are: captain Mat Ryan, Bailey Wright, Jamie Maclaren, Nick D'Agostino, Jackson Irvine, Craig Goodwin, Danny Vukovic, Andrew Redmayne, Mathew Leckie, Mitchell Duke, Mitch Langerak, Denis Genreau, Cameron Devlin, Adam Taggart and Kye Rowles.
Alex Wilkinson, the president of players union Professional Footballers Australia and Sydney FC skipper  also features in the extended clip.

The players' statement was made following a series of briefings with numerous authorities over the past 12 months, including FIFA and Qatar's Supreme Committee for Legacy and Development, the Sydney Morning Herald reports.
The World Cup kicks off on November 20 in Doha in the the oil-rich, highly conservative Middle Eastern state.
