Geelong rorting the system

Just tell me when the MCC gave the ground EXCLUSIVELY to Coll as a home ground?
Asking for a friend!!

Do they need to when you can use it two thirds of the season. What’s your next angle going to be if you lose Saturday night?

God almighty the world really does cave in when things don’t go the way they’re supposed to when footy results are the lifeblood of your being, doesn’t it.

Probably for similar reasons to Geelong finishing 12th the year after winning a flag.

Taste it.

Cats had the oldest team ever coming off that 2022 win, bunch of old blokes broke down in 2023 and retired shortly afterwards.

Lions have the rolls royce superstar stacked squad of blokes in their 20's, they should win the next 3 Premierships with this list.

Anything less would be not living up to the hype, no excuses. The Lions rorting strategy should have them in top 4.

But the Cats have the rorts. They should win the flag every year.
 
Hm - maybe the irregular shaped ground is your answer. No team can have a HG win rate of over 85%, without such an advantage.
The first 'grounds' that football was played on in 1859 were rectangular and the length and width were determined by the captains. Ergo; most games had matches played on fields that were irregularly shaped and sized.

In any case, we've played on this venue since 1941. 84 years on our ground with this shape.

AFL LAWS:

3.3 PLAYING SURFACE AND POSTS GENERAL
The dimensions and markings of the Playing Surface are contained in this Law 3 and illustrated in Diagram 1.
PLAYING SURFACE (a)

The Playing Surface shall be:
(i) oval in shape; :whitecheck:
(ii) between 135 metres and 185 metres in length; :whitecheck:
(iii) and between 110 metres and 155 metres in width. :whitecheck:

(b) A white line shall be marked on the ground to identify the Playing Surface. This white line shall be drawn in the shape of an arc from the behind post (refer Law 3.3 below) at one end of the Playing Surface to the behind post at the other end of the Playing Surface. The white lines which are drawn are called the Boundary Line. :whitecheck:
 
Like I said there is stench you cannot shake - name one other Club that’s persistently under suspicion by supporters of all other Clubs.
Let’s not kid ourselves that Cotton On and Real estate deals with Big Frank Costa never happened.
Bomber made a fortune from one well publicized transaction.
Other supporters see these deals and rightly look at Geel suspiciously.

So please spare me your indignation
Thats jealousy dude. Nothing else but jealousy. You have confused suspicion with jealousy. Pathetic.

This crap needs to move to the bay.

Which umpire did they pay?

This reminds me of the time a poster from Brisbane was trying to talk crap about Geelong when up until recently they were collecting their poop in bags for poop collection days because there was no functioning sewerage system. Are RADelaide folk able to drink their tap water nowadays without having to chew it first?
Speaking of which, Esava had a perfect head of hair before he went to Adelaide. Gorgeous man.

What the f**k has happened to him since? Is the water seriously that bad?

Didn’t the bombers opt not to match your offer for Daniher and thus you didn’t have to give up anything for him?

So one injury riddled player who we saved from the Bombers and turned into a star.

He averaged 0.25 goals per game more with Brisbane than he did with Essendon and 1.5 more touches. He was already kicking 1.8 goals a game and he nudged over the 2 mark with you guys. All that changed was he became injury free after a few years largely on the sideline.
When we signed Bailey Smith the fact that he hadn’t pulled on a boot in over a season didn’t matter nor did the fact that we had to trade for him. We cheated to get him and he was better than Leigh Matthews remember?

You sign a key forward of reasonable repute who while injured had still at least been getting on the park each year, without giving up anything, and we are the ones being kissed on the pecker?
