Q&A.JAMES
BY: KATELIN NELLIGAN
James Ezard
POSITION: ROVER, HALF-FORWARD
Nickname (and its origins):
Jimmy or Jimbo from Jim’s Mowing. I think Mark Dragicevic
came up with that a couple of years ago.
As a boy I supported:
The Cats (Geelong).
My most memorable football moment is:
Winning back-to-back flags with Calder Cannons in Under
18s. We played at the MCG.
I’d rather forget when:
We have a big loss.
I’m praised for:
My Jimbo walk.
I’m not so good at:
Riding motorbikes. I think I’ve just stuffed my brother’s.
The SANFL’s most exciting player is:
Daniel Caire, when he’s on the go because of his pace and
his rugby background. No one can catch him.
The best thing about playing football is:
Friendships with team-mates and winning.
I play in the SANFL because:
It’s the highest level I can play at the moment.
The best advice given:
It’s only a game. That’s what my old man always says.
My perfect Saturday night is:
Having a good night out with my close mates.
The person I would most like to meet is:
Ben Stiller, to see if he’s that funny in real life.
My last holiday was:
On a footy trip to Thailand at the end of last year.
If I had to take three things to a deserted island I’d take:
Matches, a bug zapper and Wilson from Castaway.
My favourite film/television show is:
My favourite movie is probably Anchorman and my
favourite TV show is that Ramsay’s Kitchen Nightmares. It’s
funny the way he just goes off at people.
The last album I listened to was:
Chilli Peppers’ Greatest Hits album.
My biggest fashion mistake was:
Ask my missus. She’ll probably say everything.
If I won $1million, I’d spend it on:
A trip around the world. I’d put half on black in Vegas and
that’d probably be the difference between getting the whole
way round the world, or only making it half-way.
In my future I see:
Myself winning a Nobel Prize.
Besides playing football my ambition in life has always
been to:
Travel, because I haven’t seen much yet. I’ve always wanted
to go to the States.
