Met Carey outside AFL headquarters, when my work was out that way.

Used to see a few current AFL players there too. Ziebell and Fyfe come to mind.
Carey is so tall; seen him in RL a few times

Sat behind Mase last year...he changed seats when I kept whispering Phillyroo loves you

Met Jz, Thomo and LT

Older players Crackers, Xave Tanner, and Sammy K

I met JB at a sporty he was doing a few years ago. He jumped on our table at the end of the night and chatted for ages. Ended up jumping in our car and heading down to the pub with us. We all bought a round except for him and he was about to ditch us until he heard my mate say, "It's that campaigners shout." Straight to the bar, got us drinks and then pissed off.

I sat next to Carey on a plane once. He was huge. Bigger than he should have been. I think he was too wide for the aisle.

Did he ask for your autograph (hoof print?)
I took him for a spin out to Craigieburn in the Jaguar. We had a few kicks on the Oval; taught him the correct way to hold the ball when kicking for goal. We had some KFC at Wallan. He spilt some BBQ sauce on his RMWilliams jeans and I hired him a Uber back to the City because I had to get home and put the Chooks to bed.
