I can't wait for the classic "Scott has done a good job with his costume as the North Melbourne coach" joke.

He really should have worn a North Melb hoddie like Brad.

Stokes as Monkey Magic is brilliant. Not sure if Goodes would approve though.

Eddie McGuire sure as hell would.

He should be ok, I don't think he can call a fellow aboriginal a racist

Why do Geelong do Wacky Wednesday instead of Mad Monday? Is it just to avoid conflicts with other events?
8
And given they've played finals the last several years, it may be a bit too short-notice to schedule Mad Monday after a loss on a Friday or Saturday
7
Probably, clubs usually have player reviews, exit meetings etc. on the Mondays and Tuesdays
4
Dockers under RTB scheduled for Sombre Saturday.

“I had another idea but it probably wasn’t appropriate.”
I'd give anything to know what it was. Bartel is a very witty dude.

Love Selwood and Bartell's work

Plastic pots? Must be a class establishment.

They had to change to plastic after blokes who said "class establishment" kept getting glassed.

Have another West End draught, cobber. It'll all turn out okay.

Spaghett about it mate, it's in the pasta.

Are they seriously live tweeting the End of Season piss up?
-10
Why wouldn't they give media coverage for their fans on a fun event both the club and the fans can enjoy?
4
I'm all up for the fans enjoying it, but for a news outlet to dedicate someone to live tweet the whole thing is a bit weird IMO.
3
It's the Geelong Advertiser doing it. What else are they going to report on - more factory closures?
25
It's the Geelong Addy. It's weird for the Cats not to be on the front page.
8
They only live tweeted an hours worth, really not that much dedication.

Yeah true haha

have you ever been part of a "mad monday" before? Sure, the costumes and stuff is fun, but it's the one day of the season that all the players can really relax and get a bit loose. I wouldn't want any media snapping off a few pics and taking it out of context
1
Yeah the players are allowed to have fun, no one is denying that. But I don't think anything can be taken out of context for a costume? Like the Melbourne player that dressed up as Rolf Harris and his teammate dressed up as an underage girl beside him. I don't think the Melbourne player's intentions was to dress up as the guy thinking "he had the best paint can ads on Telly" In that sense its about the players common sense more than the Media scrutinizing them.

when the Crows had their Mad Monday celebrations, The Advertiser wrote on Facebook, asking people to take pictures and send them in
