What is your most memorable game?
The 2004 grand final without a doubt.

Who would you like on your table at the Brownlow Medal count?
Dom Cassisi, just because he’s funny and good to pay out on, as well. Obviously my wife would be there, too.

Who is your most annoying teammate?
Definitely Brett Ebert or Steve Salopek. They are both annoying, play little games and act like they’re 19, so probably those two.

What’s in your locker at the club?
I’d say a towel, vitamins, my playing goals and some loose change. I keep a pretty tidy locker.
What’s something you’re always being reminded to do?
Take the bin out and probably pick up my clothes.

If you were Prime Minister for a day, what would you do?
Stop whaling. I just think it’s disgusting that people can get away with killing a protected species. I’m a bit of a greenie so I have a passion for animals.

What’s your most hated training drill?
The 'Cornes drill' - named after Chad. It’s basically a drill where you’re on your hands and knees and a couple of people with pads try to bash you to the ground and you have to put in six or seven efforts towards getting the ball. It’s quite tiring.

If you were a cartoon character, who would it be?
I was a massive cartoon fan when I was young and He-Man was my all time hero. So if anyone, I’d have to say him.

If you could take one skill from another player in the competition, what would it be?
Definitely Ryan O’Keefe or Kane Cornes’ running ability – they go all day. I’d love to know what it was like to never get tired.
