Strauchanie: Pure B.S.

Bryan Strauchan - Collingwood's last pick in the 2004 AFL national draft and yet to play a senior game, yet he has captured the hearts of football fans across the country. His daily struggle to make his debut has been graphically depicted, warts and all, with Network TEN's "Before The Game" cameras gaining unprecedented access to Collingwood's inner sanctum. "Strauchanie," as he has become affectionately known, is embroiled in a constant battle with not only the Collingwood selectors, but also a less than desirable diet, an over inflated ego, and the cultural barriers associated with his Asian heritage on his mother's side. He has a common touch that anyone who has dreamed of playing in the AFL can relate to... and as Strauchanie himself says to those who think it's easy being a superstar: "Give it a wash!"
