Selwood brothers pull off epic Schapelle gag
Geelong have gone all out for their annual Wacky Wednesday celebrations, with Schapelle Corby, Mack Horton and Pennywise all making an appearance.
While most clubs celebrate Mad Monday after their season ends, the Cats have Wacky Wednesday.
The players and coaches got together at Newtown's Lord of the Isles Tavern on Wednesday after they were eliminated from the finals last weekend, setting a new benchmark with some of their costumes.
Mark Blicavs rocked up as Olympic gold medal-winning swimmer Mack Horton, while Darcy Lang and Jackson Thurlow came as Futurama characters Bender and Zoidberg.
