VideoGeelong premiership defender Jake Kolodjashnij is heading towards likely retirement after 209 games, with a formal announcement expected within a week.

Brisbane grand final hero Logan Morris may be a three-time premiership player and an All-Australian, but he will never live down the story of his debut as the Lions carried their flag celebrations into Mad Monday.

Morris famously made his AFL debut the same day he’d already played a VFL game and had smashed a McDonald’s meal ahead of playing for the Lions.

Despite the moment coming three years ago, his dressing up as McDonald’s mascot, Ronald McDonald, stole the show of the Lions’ third premiership Mad Monday in as many seasons.

In fact, his first of the two majors gave Brisbane the lead back after trailing by 17 points with four minutes left, while his second sealed the Lions’ place in AFL immortality.

Another player enjoyed the celebrations, dressed as politician Pauline Hanson, while Josh Dunkley donned Lycra to impersonate a Colombian cyclist.

Polarising star Lachie Neale posted a pic of the three premiership cups as well as a selfie biting down on his medallion.

It was later revealed Lions skipper Harris Andrews had encouraged coach Chris Fagan to take the Cups home to avoid any damage with players, including Morris, drinking from them.

Cigars were also very prominent in the celebrations.

It was alluded to that players had paired up and picked costumes for each other.
