If you were on a flight from Perth to Melbourne on Sunday night and witnessed a man wearing swimming goggles, your eyes weren’t deceiving you.

That man with a freshly shaved head was Collingwood midfielder Levi Greenwood.

Licking their wounds after a loss to West Coast at Domain Stadium, the 22 players who took on the Eagles were in the air hours after the final siren.

Some listened to music, others elected to sleep. Greenwood and Jordan De Goey decided to pass their time by playing a little game called ‘what are the odds’.

An amused passenger was fellow teammate Adam Treloar.

“Jordy for some reason had goggles on him,” Treloar begun telling the story to co-host Mark Allen on Collingwood Media’s vodcast ‘Sports Galore’.

“So Jordy says to Levi ‘what are the odds of you putting these goggles on for an hour on this plane’, and Levi goes ‘one out of ten’.

“So they’ve got to guess a number between one and ten at the same time and if they get it right he (Greenwood) has to do it.

“So they go ‘three, two, one…’ and they both say ‘four’.

The result…

“The lady has come down and sort of taken a second look at Levi and goes ‘are you wearing goggles?’ And he said ‘yeah I’m wearing goggles’.

Hear Treloar tell the story on episode six of Sports Galore, which can be played in the module below.


Below are five key moments to listen out for as Treloar and SEN’s Mark Allen discuss the most daunting roadtrips in world sport.

How Treloar will “hit the ground running”

“It’ll be a massive emphasis on recovery having a six-day break,” the 23-year-old said.

“It’s pretty much the ice baths, the yoga, the massage, the physio – as much as we can get.

“And then it’s reviewing and previewing the game.”

Why did Levi Greenwood shave his head?

When the former North Melbourne midfielder emerged on Domain Stadium on Sunday with a shaved head, it wasn’t by choice.

Treloar tells of how some accurate skills from one of his teammates resulted in Greenwood losing the locks.

Our favourite NBA star names his Magpies starting five

Fresh from a playoffs victory for the Cleveland Cavaliers, Australian NBA star Matthew Dellavedova took time to speak to 'Sports Galore' about which Magpies’ he’d like to be sharing the court with.

The Collingwood diehard and Maryborough native put together a fearsome starting five, albeit with a touch of country bias.

A sporting moment to remember

“It sent shivers down my spine,” Treloar said during the weekly ‘Do you care?’ segment.

“That’s exactly how you want to feel on the footy field.”

An NFL connection

Treloar had words of encouragement for former teammate and current New York Jets punter Lachlan Edwards.

“I played my bottom-age year with him and then I got drafted to the Giants,” Treloar said.

“Then two days ago when the draft was on I saw that Lachie Edwards got drafted… I couldn’t believe it. I messaged him saying ‘well done mate, you should be proud’.

Ironically, Treloar had a distinct memory of playing with Edwards for the Dandenong Stingrays in the TAC Cup.

“This is funny because now he’s a punter, but I remember him being a massive kick.”
