Melbourne Football Club AFL players caused quite a stir in Euroa earlier this week – with a whisk, that is.

On Tuesday, February 13, Jack Viney, Christian Salem, Jake Bowey, Bayley Fritsch, Tom Fullarton, Josh Schache and Caleb Windsor visited St John’s Primary School to assist with their Shrove Tuesday celebrations in the kitchen.

With Christian Petracca, Demons star and online cooking sensation, absent, Schache and Windsor stepped up their culinary game to cook pancakes for the students.

The rest of the team served, and all players spent time signing autographs and taking photos with their junior supporters.

The News journalist Taylah Baker was also present to snap pictures of the Demons as they showcased their versatile skills beyond Aussie rules.
