How shocked were you to hear the news about Vossy? Has it been a bit weird around the Club over the past week given what’s happened?
Jimmy from Capalaba (QLD)

Everyone is slowly getting used to it and the boys are just trying to focus on playing out the season!

With the end of the season nearing, is it sad knowing that some of your teammates won’t be there with you next year? Secondly, what teammate have you missed the most during your time at the Club?
Tim from Narre Warren (VIC)

It comes with the job knowing some of your mates won’t be there next year. Over the years there have been a lot of blokes that you grow a close bond with and it’s always sad to see them go.

I was rapt at the start of the season when Joel Patfull shaved his hair. It was thinning on top anyway and made him look more intimidating. How come he’s never shaved it since?
Bradley from Cottesloe (WA)

Yeah I think Joel saw the success that I had when I shaved my head so he thought he would jump on board. We keep telling him he is getting very thin on top, but he keeps telling me the sun makes it look worse than what it is. I’ll try and get him to shave his head a bit more, because I think the girls like the Bruce Willis look on him.

I’m a regular watcher of Lions TV and reckon that Sam Michael would have to be one of the funniest blokes on the list – along with yourself, of course. Any chance of him getting his own show or even web column?
Beau from Epping (VIC)

Sam Michael is not the funniest bloke on the list.

Hi Ash. Just wondering if you guys have any nicknames for Rohan Bewick? I'm hoping there are some interesting or funny ones.
Kylie from Athelstone (SA)

He is known as the servant because he lives with Daniel Rich and whatever Richy says, he does. For example, picking up Richy’s girlfriend from the airport on days when Richy can’t be bothered to pick her up.

Hey Ash, When is Chrissie Johnson going to get you on the Marngrook Footy Show. Or is it a case that CJ has no influence at all with the producers on the show?
James from Balwyn (VIC)

I’d like to get on there, I would probably just sit there laughing too much. But would love to get on there one time before I retire.

Hey Ash! I've been really impressed with Sam Mayes’ performances over the last few weeks. What do you think about him and are there any other young players to look out for?
Brodie from Kyabram (VIC)

He’s been good the last couple of weeks, good to see a young kid come through. Also keep your eyes out for Michael Close and a couple of other boys in the NEAFL squad.

Hey Ash, just wondering how Brent Staker is these days and does he ever speak about Barry Hall?
Tim from Clayfield (QLD)

Actually I’ve been on a couple of footy trips and community camps with Stakes and I was lucky enough to room with him, and he still wakes up in cold sweats thinking about Barry Hall. One of the most common things you hear him say in his sleep is “Barry no, No Barry.”

Is Joel Patfull a tad on the thick side when it comes to the ladies? Surely he's noticed one fan coming to training a lot to talk to him! How did the boys react to him kicking a goal against Geelong, pretty weird stuff that!
Anon from Brisbane (QLD)

He’s still looking for that special someone. He loves girls who wear denim jeans so if you’re out there and you wear denim jeans then you might catch his eye. Joel’s known as ‘Ghost Eyes’ in front of the goals, so when he marked it a few of the boys were looking for the handball because he was that scared of trying to get it between the two goal posts.
