News from the rooms

Snuck into the rooms last night after the game.
All pretty quiet in fact.
Grammy was limping - looked like a "cork" limp.
Players weren't allowed to see their family til quite a while after the game.
Kingy hung around with child with only flesh coloured skins undieso n for a while - the ladies I was with appreciated that.
Had some strange padding/taping on his back.
Bakes and Milney were in their element. CJ looked rapt and Zac was getting heaps of calls - maybe from Hawthorn wondering if he would consider a trade to them, they are a bit short on tall back men I hear.
Quick chat to X, what a bloke. Said he will be in his brothers pocket next week!

Umm I have to ask..how do you "sneak" into the rooms after a Preliminary Final??lol

Umm how do you get in at all actually just out of interest?

You can get in if you know family, or know Andrew on the door

Its pretty easy. Just get a pass off a player or an official. I will be in there next week if we win. not a place to go if we lose. leave that for immediate family.

I also have the art of invisibleness, like Zac The Cougar Dawson.

It does happen

Managed to get in at the gold coast with some random pass, i didnt think it would work, but it did.

But after a prelim/GF would be unreal, especially after a win

I am glad they kept their lid on

We went in after the North game, not a good place to be.

i'm a bit curious, but a bit hesitant in asking this...
after the game i went outside and turned on the radio - don't know if the call was from sen or other - they had to wait to get into the rooms - this from kelly: ross first called the 22 in behind closed doors, then the fringe players
were called in along with officials - about 40 in behind closed doors - she said there was one glaring omission -max.
is this so? seemed very strange thing to say and not follow up on?

I saw him at the game but didn't see him in the rooms but didn't see the whole squad either so that doesn't mean he wasn't there.

PS Jack Barker was there too, looking not great but battling on like his son and the Saints.

Not likely. She is in Sydney every week for work.

Great to see.

Surely just adds that little extra bit of inspiration.

Channel 7 showed a nice close up of him talking to Kosi (I think) in the changerooms after the game.
