St Kilda Saints star Darragh Joyce gives an X-RATED answer in AFL Record magazine interview

St Kilda star Darragh Joyce’s X-rated answer to an innocent question has slipped past the proofreaders at the AFL Record magazine and gone into print.

When the defender was asked which musical instrument he’d like to play in last weekend’s edition of the publication known as the ‘AFL bible’,  he answered ‘skin flute’ – which is Aussie slang for penis.

The cheeky Irishman’s obscene remark was a rare miss by a magazine that is loved by footy fans all over the nation.

One definition on Urban Dictionary says a skin flute ‘is a lesser-known euphemism for a “penis.” Use of the term “skin flute” is of an obviously hip, knowledgeable individual.’

Joyce, who was previously a Hurling star for Kilkenny in Ireland, joined St Kilda as an international rookie in 2017 and has since played 13 games for the club, primarily as a key defender.

He showcased his witty personality throughout the rest of the interview, describing his ideal day as simply ‘breakfast, golf, lunch, golf, dinner and pints’.

The defender didn’t shoot for the stars when he said what he most proud of, suggesting it was simply ‘surviving on a list for six years’, though it is an amazing accomplishment for someone who had never previously played the game.

Joyce suggested his biggest fear was ‘exit interviews’ and gave a ruthless analysis of his schooling: ‘Hard worker but got nowhere’. 

Joyce is far from the only footballer to use an AFL Record pocket profile to show their humorous side.

Darragh Joyce also said in his AFL Record interview that his dog Cooper was the one who ruled the roost in his household

Kangaroos prankster Kayne Turner in his 2017 interview revealed his least-preferred household chore was ‘turning off a light’, and suggested his wife/partner/best friend would describe him as ‘sub-par’.  

A year prior, Suns veteran Alex Sexton gave fans a chuckle when he said the best piece advice his mum ever gave him was ‘to stop doing wrestling moves on his sister’.
