AFL players off-season travel diaries

There’s been weddings and wisdom teeth, fast cars and festivals, costumes and big catches.

But while some steal sunshine, others — including Richmond superstar Dustin Martin — are continuing to shift steel in the gym.

Martin, 31, has been spotted at a private gym in Burleigh Heads this week, a venue that specialises in “functional training”.

It is understood that he has been visiting outside of opening hours while no one else is there.

Patrick Cripps has been living it up in America, Clayton Oliver has been all around Europe,

Jack Ginnivan has been in Italy while Jordan De Goey went to … you know where, adding some more ink to his growing collection of body art.

Richmond’s Nathan Broad and Giant Phil Davis took a trip down the aisle, while for the North Melbourne crew, Bali was the destination of choice in a mass end-of-season trip.

But there’s been some hard work along the way, too, with Bombers pair Peter Wright and Will Snelling just two who were captured helping out amid the current flood crisis.

We take a look at what they’ve been up to over the last few weeks.

And with a few weeks remaining until the pre-season officially kicks off, there’s still some time to kick the heels up.
