Spending time with family and some good weather is on Michael Barlow’s Christmas list this year.

Barlow was joined by the playing squad this evening at the annual Junior Members Christmas Party at Fremantle Oval.

“I’m heading home for Christmas, I’ll meeting up with my family then we’re heading to Apollo Bay,” Barlow said.

“So I’m hoping for some sunny weather and looking forward to spending quality time with my extended family.”

More than 1000 eager young fans turned up in the warm conditions to see their favourite footy stars, practice some skills and meet Santa.

Barlow said that seeing so many junior fans enjoying their afternoon was a great thing for the club.

“It’s a really good day, we had a good turn out,” he said.

“Having so many youngsters down here only solidifies our position as a strong club both on and off the field.”
