Nick Riewoldt is a one-time AFLPA MVP winner...but for a few moments it could have been two.

That's what Billy Brownless heard, at least, while the two co-hosted Triple M's Rush Hour on Thursday.

“A lot of people are forthcoming with stories about you, Roo,” he began.

So Billy told Roo he'd heard a story about how Riewoldt arrived at the 2009 AFLPA MVP awards to find a secret note left at his seat, addressed to him.

It turned into a pretty rough wind-up!

“True story, Bill,” he laughed.

“It wasn’t just a random ‘hey congratulations’…it was on my table addressed to me.

ROO'S STITCH-UP:
