Where are they now? Players from Last Year.

Paddy Dow continues to be named in the Blues best 22, gathering X amount of disposals last week against opponent, X.

Staying with the Blue baggers, former Pioneer Mitch Kemp, older brother of current player, Brodie, has signed a deal with the VFL equivalent, Carlton Blues.

Kayle Kirby had a scare last week, collapsing on the field with a heart problem in his Collingwood VFL game against opponent, X. He has been released and appears to be in fine spirits, we are sending Kayle our best.

Dirty Laundry:
A segment in which players, parents and all other readers can email in their stories of dumb stuff that has happened in their playing careers. Everything anonymous.

I was on a sports trip that required us to stay overnight in the city we were playing in,  I was sharing a room with our teans star player,. I sleep naked,  and it was hot, throughout the night I had kicked my blankets off and the royal jewels had been exposed. I wake up in the middle of the night, a sweaty mess, hearing voices from across the room., one of which is female. Our star player had gone out for dinner with his sister that night, so I assumed she must have been dropping him off. Ashamed, I close my eyes and try to get back to sleep. Not ten minutes later I hear suspicious noises, I turn to look at my roommate, and as if by some psychic connection he turns to face me, smiles, and gives me a thumbs up. I didn’t see much of the girl, but I saw enough to know she definitely wasn’t his sister. The next overnight trip we had I requested a different room.

I was at a coach in a rural town, when we had a bad farming season it was decided that the under 18 footballers, and the under 18 netballers would share a bus to our away games, three pregnancies later, everyone was carpooling.

I was a player for a local club that had a well known coach, after a particularly bad loss, a rowdy fan shouts ‘Hey coach, you earn a bucks a game and still can’t get us a win.’ Without missing a beat, the coach turns around, raises his two middle fingers and replies ‘It’s two thousand a game, bitch.’ Our coach was a big fan of Breaking Bad.
