21.01.2022 Celebrity All Stars Team Announcement - BRETT KOHLHAGEN Many people might think he's known as "Plough" for the tenacious way he'll dig for a story, but once upon a time Brett Kohlhagen would be doing his best work at the bottom of a pack for the Walla Hoppers and Albury Tigers. The mad North Melbourne fan has stepped up his training at Adrenaline in recent weeks ahead of Saturday's match, where he'll be keen to impress a couple of modern-day Shinboners in Jack Ziebell and Shaun Atley.
