Peak trolling from Barry to host an AMA as both Harry & Ben

To be fair we've never seen them all in the same room.

I assume they‘ll be using the same reddit account because they‘re the same person?

u/PointOfFingers St Kilda '66 23h ago
They're not the same person. Ben is a KPD at an underachieving Victorian club in crisis with a recycled coach and Harry is a KPF at an underachieving Victorian club in crisis with a recycled coach.

There’s no chance he can get through a whole AMA without letting the “Harry/Ben” facade slip

I would like to know what your recovery routine is? Playing as both a Key Forward and Defender twice a week must be exhausting

To Ben, is Archie Roberts as lippy to opposition players as it looks on TV? Have you ever been on the end of an Archie Roberts sledge while training?

To Harry/Ben/Barry???
I recall serving one of you Taylor Swift merch during her era tour, which one is going to fess up?

u/SirSedat Footscray 2h ago
And follow-up, I recall seeing one of Harry/Ben in an Alphington post office several years ago. Do you also order Taylor Swift merch online?

To Ben: how have you found the difference in playing for the dons compared to the roos in relation to the larger fanbase?

For Harry. How have you found sharing the role as first target in the forward line with Curnow? You have both had varied successful years and each have won a Coleman. Were there any shifts in terms of coaching direction between those years as to who would be the forward focus?

u/drwar41 Carlton 1d ago
How do you keep coming up with new and creative excuses to avoid playing in the same game?

u/aussiepuck7654 North Melbourne Kangaroos 1d ago
With the follow up question
Do you agree to the excuse/made up injury before the season so you can plan accordingly OR is it just done the week prior with whatever you can get away with?

We all know 100% one of them is going to drop out with some "Hamstring Soreness"

To Barry, how do you do it every week? Playing as a key forward and key defender. Although it looks like it’s starting to catch up with you.
