Tupps from Caloundra (Queensland)
Yeah, I think Luke just finished his degree in media or journalism and Blacky does have investments in a couple of Bank of Queensland franchises.
I don’t have anything at the moment - although I’m looking. I would like to open a Krispy Kreme store over in Perth.
Hi Ash, I really enjoyed hearing Browny lay it on the line to you fellas that if anyone complained about the cold weather in Tassie, they had to cough up $50. Are there any other commitments that have got money penalties between you boys?
Anthony from Moonee Ponds (Victoria)
Not really. It was something that came up for that particular trip.
We learnt a fair bit from the Geelong game when a few of the boys mentioned how cold it was and we copped a hammering.
We decided as a group that we would treat Tassie’s cold weather just like Brisbane’s warm weather and it obviously worked for us because we had a good win.
Have the boys planned anything for their end of season trip yet?
Andrew from Victoria
Not yet. A few boys are going to Fiji for Mitch Clark’s wedding at the end of the year but there isn’t anything planned for the entire group.
I’m sure a few boys will get together and head off somewhere.
Do you plan on having any children? If so, how many and what would you name them?
Maria from Melbourne (Victoria)
I do plan on having kids at some stage down the track. But I have no idea how many or what I would name them just yet.
Do you watch the Amazing Race?
Emma from Melbourne (Victoria)
No, I don’t. But I head it’s a pretty good show.
Hi Ash, I always see guys like Leon Davis and Daniel Motlop kicking freaky goals nearly every week. Who at the Lions would be the freakiest goal-kicker - besides you of course?
Anthony from Moonee Ponds (Victoria)
Besides me, probably Jared Brennan. He seems to do things that most people can’t. We both learned most of our tricks from Daryl White.
How many guernseys does each player have? And how often are they replaced?
Lee from Caboolture (Queensland)
We actually have a pretty tight property steward who only gives us one jumper for the entire year and if it gets ripped during a game, we have to buy our own.
We also only get two pairs of socks for the whole year.
Do you and Troy Selwood get along?
Allison from Glen Waverley (Victoria)
Yeah, me and Troy get along fine.
We just like to throw little jabs at each other to see if the other can take it. He does hang out with Rhan Hooper a lot though and I think that Rhan’s starting to rub off on him.
Hey Ash, I have noticed there are quite a few female support staff members at the Lions. Are they well respected in the AFL?
Jessie from Brisbane (Queensland)
Yeah, we have a few at the Club in our staff and support staff and they have the utmost respect. They are just like one of the boys.
Hey Ash, what kind of music does Braddy listen to?
Benjamin from Carina Heights (Queensland)
Braddy gets into a bit of Shania Twain and loves the country and western stuff. But he also likes a bit of Metallica at different times.
Hey Ash. Do you guys celebrate when a player reaches a certain number of matches? Could you tell Simon Black that we think he is awesome and congrats on 250 games!
Alysha from Brisbane (Queensland)
All milestone players at the Club get presented with the game ball in the locker room after the match.
We try our hardest every week so it’s hard to say we try harder. But it’s always much more special when you can win for one of the blokes’ milestones.
What's your favourite vegetable and why?
Oscar from Melbourne (Victoria)
I like all of them.
Hi Bruz, It's Ding Hood here again from your hometown Armadale. Bruz, after that deadly game you played against the Cats a few weeks ago everyone around town can't stop talking about you!! It's crazy. Your number one fan, Ding.
Ding Hood from Armadale (WA)
Hey Ding, cheers for all your support Brudda.
PS: Say hello to Mirdle for me.
Hey Ash, who at the Lions is the most competitive player? And who has the worst temper?
Anna from Brisbane (Queensland)
We’re all pretty competitive guys and we all lose our temper at different stages - particularly when it comes to ping pong at the Club. There are plenty of broken bats and holes in the wall downstairs in the Footy Department.
None of the boys like to lose.
