It is a truth universally acknowledged that carefully coiffed hair equates with careful pre-season preparation. The man who takes pride in his hair also takes pride in his football. The pre-season do is a strong indicator of footy season performance.
So, due to popular demand, the 2016 Pies players' hair do review returns. It is also the season of the photo-shoot, with the boys all looking their best and showing off their new dos.
Optimism reigns, before the demands of actually playing footy cause a rethink and change of hair style.
Who can forget Pendle's infamous early season dreads of 2012? They didn't last long.
This year, in preparing this thread, I've actually done some research to ensure I use the correct hair-dressing terms. I'm now right up there with Knightmare in terms of professional thread preparation.
We may see the undercut, man bun, top knot, the fade (much favoured by some of our lads), the pompadour (sadly also favoured), the classic with side part (it never dies) and the short back and sides (this one needs a better name).
And the big questions of 2016:
Is the bearded hipster look finished? Run its course? Gone the way of the substitute? (Caff? Caff?)
Will Broomhead continue to disappoint in the (unruly) hair department?
Who will step up, Maxy style, now that The Seed and Karnesis have departed? Some of you might miss Seedsman's outside flair in 2016, or Patty K's unerring shots on goal. But I will miss their hair dos. They were innovative, brave, hard at it...in the hair salon (wish the lads all the best).
Will Bucks finally cast aside the hair product, and look his age?
Who will win out of Witts versus Grundy? Not the no. 1 ruck spot, but the best big man do. Wittsy is out in front ATM, as Grundy makes no effort whatsoever, unless his messy disheveled look is carefully orchestrated. Is Mason Cox even in this discussion?
But first up I give you Adam Treloar
Ok, its a pompadour, described by my impeccable source as being 'characterised by tightly held down sides with a large volume on the top that gradually recedes as you move towards the back'.
But look carefully. The do is perfectly balanced, just like the player. It is poised, but ready to spring. I like it. A great debut effort by Treloar.
Other pompadours?
Not bad Marley. Could provide some protective cushioning to that hard nut of his.
Not quite Jeremy. You need some assistance. Have a word to Adam.
Further installments to follow...
