Last week the North Melbourne Football Club began a groundbreaking new initiative allowing members and supporters unprecedented access to players, coaches and staff.

Within days of launching All Access, the club was inundated with more than 250 questions.

Below is a selection of questions and answers so far:

From Tony to Brent Harvey: Hi Brent, how long do you think that you will keep playing footy for? I am 42 and I still play, I just love the game.. I'm just about to start my 20th pre season. Thanks Tony.

I turn 32 in May next year, just after the start of the season but feel that I still have plenty to offer on the field. My body feels great and this pre-season has been enjoyable so far. I really hope I’m as durable as you and can have another 10 years!

I think I could play at least another two seasons, perhaps three but it will most likely be determined by the club. We will continue to look at rolling one year deals until I feel that I’ve reached the end.

Good luck with your 20th pre-season mate, I hope you have a few wins!

From Scott to Eugene Arocca: Is there going to be an open day so Members can take in the fantastic new facilities at Arden Street???

We are planning to hold Family Day at the new facility to give all our members a chance to look through it. This will probably take place early next year.

We are also looking to invite everyone down to Arden Street to go through the old building for the last time before it is demolished in December. There will also be an auction with everything from office furniture, gym equipment and the old turnstiles to go under the hammer.

There will be further correspondence on the above events shortly via kangaroos.com.au and our eNews.

From Jess to Josh Smith: Why does everyone call you Oscar?

It’s a nickname that has stuck with me for a long time from school. I used to muck around a lot and jump into bins so I was named Oscar after the Sesame Street character Oscar the Grouch.

Thanks for asking,

Josh ‘Oscar’ Smith
