HomeNewsCats' Wacky Wednesday power play

Cats’ Wacky Wednesday power play

Oscars, babies, chooks and twitter feuds all featured at ‘Wacky Wednesday’ as Geelong Cats players drowned their sorrows after last Friday’s prelim final loss.

Patrick Dangerfield took the micky out of outspoken former footballer Kane Cornes, arriving as a fireman with an old Port Adelaide guernsey underneath.

The lighthearted jab reignited the pair’s long-running Twitter banter with 2004 AFL Premiership winner Cornes posting, “He forgot the premiership medal…”

“I’ll give you that!” Dangerfield admitted, before posting a picture of himself reeling ‘Cornes’ in “Hook, line and sinker!” half an hour later.

Gary Ablett arrived with a baby strapped to his chest as The Hangover’s Alan, while Tom Hawkins brought a chicken to impersonate ginger-haired teammate Gary Rohan.

Tom Stewart and Cam Guthrie both arrived as Keanu Reeves’ character John Wick, but the latter went the extra mile bringing his dog too.

Mark Blicavs brought an ‘Oscar’ to poke fun at his fine for staging while captain Joel Selwood turned up as Queen front man Freddie Mercury.
