After reading the snippet about what Dick promised the players if they made the Finals in 2008, I was wondering what trip would be incentive enough for the players to play above themselves in 2008?

The type of trip that you come up with, must not include an over abundance of females being made available or any other sexist crap.

To kick it off, I will start with the players are outfitted in Giorgio Aramani tuxedo's [nicer than the Rabbitoh's green Aramani suits], then flown in Dick's private jets [he has hired a couple to transport the players/coaches and partners] to the Monte Carlo, where a number of limousines are waiting to spirit them off to the Hermitage.

On arrival to their rooms, each player and partner will find $20,000 Euro in spending money to be used for their 1 week stay in Monte Carlo.

They will be wined and dined at all that Monte Carlo has to offer including the famed casino.

Partners will be looked after at the famous salons and will be treated to facials and pampering and whatever their hearts desire.

The players will 'Bond' over games of Baccarat where the players cannot lose!

That's all for me, please free to add your version of what would get the players to play above themselves and to realise Dick's end of season trip to be the envy of all other AFL clubs.

Unless the bunnies are on holidays from the mansion, then yes, it would be sexist. :-D

I know we're just pissing around here - but wouldn't any trip funded by Dick need to be counted under the salary cap?

That's easy. Just turn it into a 'learning and training experience' like collingwood's annual player trips to the U.S, and you're laughing.

High-altitude training at St Tropez, anyone?

The casino at Monte Carlo is overrated IMVHO.
The carpark is impressive, though.
