Lovelock was for many years a contributor to the SBS show The World Game.
He also co-hosted ABC Radio Grandstand for a brief period.
Until recently he co-hosted Football Fever, a weekly football radio show on Sky Sports Radio, created by the late Paul Williams, alongside Les Murray and other football journalists, such as Francis Awaratife. The show was axed by the station, who decided to provide more airtime to its coverage of horse racing. Lovelock claimed in final episodes during March 2010 to be searching for another station for the program to be revived on.
He is also a yoga instructor in Mauritius, and can be seen on Sky News alongside former Socceroo Paul Wade on Monday evenings. He is a known Southampton, Cagliari and New York Jets supporter.

Famous quotes containing the word sports:
“In the end, I think you really only get as far as you’re allowed to get.”
—Gayle Gardner, U.S. sports reporter. As quoted in Sports Illustrated, p. 87 (June 17, 1991)
“The whole idea of image is so confused. On the one hand, Madison Avenue is worried about the image of the players in a tennis tour. On the other hand, sports events are often sponsored by the makers of junk food, beer, and cigarettes. What’s the message when an athlete who works at keeping her body fit is sponsored by a sugar-filled snack that does more harm than good?”
—Martina Navratilova (b. 1956)
“Even from their infancy we frame them to the sports of love: their instruction, behaviour, attire, grace, learning and all their words aimeth only at love, respects only affection. Their nurses and their keepers imprint no other thing in them.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
