Northam visit

[dockers_bengals]

The last of the players go back tomorrow. 6 players visited my sons school today(just over a hundred kids)and he reckon it was fantastic.Have only heard good feedback(so far) about thier visit to Northam from people I know.They seemed to be everywhere visiting and signing autographs and getting pics taken.The auskick and training arfternoon was great.There where 2 kids standing on the balcony of the clackline shop with a flag and freo stuff on waiting for them to drive pass at the end of the day hoping to get a wave from someone.Unbelievable!They ended up getting honked and waved at by every freo vehicle that passed including the bus.The only downside to the visit is that its making the wait for the season to start harder.

Yep job well done. I watched the Ch 10 news and the difference in attitude of our players stood out like bushies camels balls.

While the other mob were playing golf & bowls, our blokes were playing with the kids.

My camels balls are not purple!!

But I will paint them when the season starts!!

Watched the 10 news as well and the difference between the two clubs interaction was indeed stark.

My son had Judd etc... visit his school at Geraldton, which he raved about of course, but there was no interaction on a basic level with the kids. More a hello, look at me aren't I god (good) visit.
