To quote a great man (?) from a great movie - Sid from Ice Age:

"You're hanging out with us now. Dignity's got nothing to do with it."

[Whispering_Jack 29,174]

Let's face it, the entire club lost it's dignity on or about 30 July 2011. A great deal of what's happened since then has been about restoring it's dignity. We've reconstructed our football department, re-signed the players we wanted to keep, had the dark shadow of the Tom Scully saga removed off our shoulders and are now looking forward to the trades, drafting and what promises to be an interesting and exciting pre season in which our promising young list can start catching up to the competition's elites under the most expert guidance available. Why can't our players perform on a public stage acting and looking like knobs just like the players from every other club? It's absolutely therapeutic and good on them as long as I don't have to watch it!

I shouldn't have used the words losing dignity, I actually liked their performances.

Sloth.

[PaulRB 6,297]

I thought Jack T rocked. Gutsy move starting the show solo and the boy can dance... nice one.

[mauriesy 7,153]

Melbourne looks relatively tame.

I would have cringed if I came from St Kilda. That was a terrible image to portray after the events of 2011.

While I'm at it ... Campbell Brown, please go. You're such a jock.

[dees189227 12,031]

Actually I thought ours wasnt ot bad. Jack started well and big Maxy had a grin on his face and I think he enjoyed it. Im just glad he didnt trip over.

David Rodan is just awesome. For a guy who has had knee re constructions and lars his knees must still be pretty good.

I agree with the stkilda one. They didnt do anything except Sam Fisher watching a girl pole dance. Is that why they did the skit just so they can get a girl pole dancing.

Too true and by gee they are in for a HUGE pre season after the end of October and by gee they do not want to have been eating the likes of turtle in the meantime. There is a time and place and last night., I thought it was great to see 5 young players bonding together having FUN.You never know Neil & Dave may bring in some dancing for pre season.However doubtful. Maybe in high altitude next year. I hear that Neeld is very eager to go down that track.

I'm aware - it's my son's favourite movie, so I've watched it approximately a gazillion times (conservative estimate).

Great film!

I was mighty impressed with Jack Trengove's confidence and moves, and that is the only comment I'm going to make!

[Guest Thomo]

I've never understood why people find watching footy players dance while they mime to songs almost naked good television. For those that enjoyed it, what’s the appeal?

[Jesse Christ 2,884]

The "player reviews" are cringe worthy. I don't see what the appeal is to anyone without mild brain damage.

Trengove rocked though. I had a dream about it last night.

Watts lost me a bit.

Hmm

When Billy Brownless of all people tells you you might need to put some socks down the frontal region your probably not packing much "firepower"

i haven't been over to Bigfooty for a while but I would assume Bay13 would be having a field day!

[WhateverItTakes 17]

I liked it, and I do every year. I guess the appeal is just watching the players have a bit of fun.

But then again, I can see why a female would look at it more differently than a male.. My boyfriend didn't enjoy it at all.

I wonder how old that pole dancer was? Hmmmm.

As for a comment on the boys' performance, I'm glad they had dancing lessons! And it took a lot of nerve for JT to start it all off. But probably not as much nerve as it took for Wattsy to put on that costume!

Skin-coloured spandex, nerd glasses, black wigs and American flags have always been a winning combination in my book. Sorry you don't agree.

[Kento80 83]

I thought it was a bit of harmless fun for the boys, and it is good to see them let their hair down a bit. JT is usually very professional and reserved, so it was great to see that they aren't like that boring little moneygrubber that shot off recently, and can actually be kids and have some fun.

[Trengove the Magnifique 9 23]

I thought they were all brilliant, Trengove especially. He was dancing for a good two minutes before the act actually started, I was wetting myself.

with all the lower abdominal saturation I hope you're not implying he has become a gay icon?

[dee-eee 231]

Trenners, of course, would do a quality job serving snags outside Bunnings on a saturday morning ! "Cringe-worthy" is too polite an expression for the rest !

[RalphiusMaximus 6,012]

I don't really care about the quality of the performance. The important thing was that four of our young stars got out there in a very public bonding exercise and showed that they are both a team and a great group of friends. Once again our young brigade are showing themselves to be very media savvy and aware of the image they project and how it impacts on the perception of our club. I don't think there could have been a better way to show that the Scully defection hasn't broken the cohesion of our playing group.

[Redleg 40,040]

Interesting that the Dees boys on the Footy Show GF revue did a song by Maroon 5, "Dance Like Jaeger" or should that be "Jagger". Wonder if they know something?

[Striker475 696]

It's Jagger Redleg.

Good on 'em. Five mates, all part of a footy team, having a bit of fun with it all. Why not?

I have it on good knowledge JW is hung like a horse.

Don't ask you don't want to know.
