Oppo Camp - Non-Eagles Discussion

Who gives a * about finals anyway So overrated It’s all about the draft these days

[The_Eagles]

WCE and Syd have now both played in 7 GFs since the AFL began in 1990.

Luckily for us we are 4-3

Sydney are 2-5

Things could be worse...

On SM-S908E using BigFooty.com mobile app

Geelong are 4-5 since 1990
We’ve dropped to equal second best club in the league after the ruthless Hawks
“Not good enough” lol

Yeah but two of our flags we beat the Cats so that had to count for something

[Spange]

You have to wonder how having your CEO of the club, Hocking, who was the AFL's head of football operations between 2017 and 2021, plus the coaches twin brother Brad Scott, influences the cats game plan and recruitment. I’m still shocked that you could leave a position like Hocking had to go back to a club without any gardening leave for 2 years.

* the cats.

 

[MrWoollie]

With his 22nd finals win today, Joel Selwood has now won as many as St Kilda in their history

No fan of the club but you have to respect his durability and sustained performance over a long period.

 

[Biggie]

Dogs' flag hero re-signs for two more years at the Kennel

 

[ioppolo]

Jeez that's strange from the Dogs. He's been cooked since about '18.

 

[Forward Press]

With Ely Smith being delisted today by Brisbane and RCD on the outer at Richmond, there is a real chance that in the highly rated 2018 super draft that picks 17 to 21 could be a real bust aside from Duursma.

Even Duursma was on the outer at Port this season

 

[Forward Press]

Even Duursma was on the outer at Port this season

If they can get an unremarkable 100 games out of Duursma I wouldn't consider him a bust, but yeah that range is not that flash.

2018 is looking like a great one aside from that anomaly - the entire top 10 has definitely delivered so far.

 

[Ochre]

With Ely Smith being delisted today by Brisbane and RCD on the outer at Richmond, there is a real chance that in the highly rated 2018 super draft that picks 17 to 21 could be a real bust aside from Duursma.

17 - Sam Sturt (Fremantle) - 4 games
18 - Xavier Duursma (Port) - 57 games
19 - Liam Stocker (delisted) - 28 games
20 - Riley Collier-Dawkins (Richmond) - 11 games
21 - Ely Smith (delisted) - 0 games

Sturt was very impressive in Peel's finals win over SF. I wouldn't call him a bust just yet.

I'm hoping Stocker gets picked up some where. Kid can play, just didn't get the best run at Carlton. But it needs to be the right type of club.

 

[KERRPOW]

Deguey has knocked back Collingwood's contract offer due to the behavioural clauses.

Would be funny if he signs that 5 year deal from the saints and it goes belly up.

Like the lovett and carlisle deals.

No chance, PA bound....# clauses .

 

[Farang83150]

Would be surprised if it gets to the PA TBH.
WC had clauses in Willie's contract as well.

Apparently port don't have any clauses in Jnr deal but just rumours

 

[Tugga27]

Yep, but WC did.

Yeah ok

One hell of a career.

One hell of a family of footballers. And Troy.

I must be one of the rare posters that doesn't mind Selwood. Well played sir.

 

[Biggie]

Hell of a career Joel

I’m sure he’ll enjoy retirement

 

[TheGhostOfJohnBelushi]

One hell of a career.

One hell of a family of footballers. And Troy.

I remember when he was being raved about when he and Adam first started.

They all pale in comparison to Joel Selwood, though.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Would slot straight into our midfield and lower the average age in there.

Pick 2 for Selwood, Bowes, Bock, Gunston and Pick 7?

 

[Keys]

Selwood has had a career most people could only dream of. In terms of talent he’s probably not in Geelongs top 5 but I doubt there’s been a more important player. Definitely their best ever captain

Absolute legacy player for the club and for all the (deserved) criticism he gets for his ducking antics he’s never shirked a contest. Ever. Hard as nails and there isn’t a supporter that wouldn’t wish he was at their club
