We're playing for the Geoffrey Edelsten Cup.


.... the loser of this game has to keep him.
This club will benefit when there is no more association with that embarrassing criminal idiot and his various escort-girl partners.

He is precisely the opposite of what this great club stands for.

Who's doing drinks with me before the game? I could probably get a guest pass for level 2 if anyone wants...?

I should be at PJ Gallagher's before the game from around 5:30-ish, I can't do drinks after the game though I think a few others on here might be.

Well considering he was technically never the owner just a front man and that he was kicked out within 12 months by his partners, it was a pretty short association.

Just shows how a first impresssion can linger though even after decades have passed.

doesn't help that he advertises on his on site that "he" was issued the sydney swans afl licence. nothing is in fact further from the truth.

Yes I was amazed when I learned the truth. In fact the VFL were shocked when they found out...which happened when supposedly the money for the licence never was paid.

Edelston was actually broke when they sold him the Swans. He couldn't pay the full $2.9m cash component.

So to save face the vfl agreed to let him set up the licence under a public company and brought in the mining company to stump up the cash on the hush hush.

His partners bought the Swans for exposure in Sydney and all they saw was Edelsten and cheerleaders. No one heard of Westeq even until this day.They ended up cutting ties pretty quickly with the Dr. He was 'sacked' within a year.

Bloody incompetence of the VFL was astounding. They were so desperate for money.
