    I don't G.A.F.F. that we beat Hawthorn. It's next week that matters.

    I don’t often write lengthy posts, but I felt inclined this morning I’m feeling really confident about this Saturday Confidence is a funny thing and often particularly Geelong supporters is based on a gut feel That being the case, I just took a little bit of time this morning to delve into some...

    Agree. And tirade is a pretty strong word to use. He was walking around the boundary, certainly not demonstrative. Should he have done it? Definitely not. He’s apologised, so kinda moot now surely

    Good to hear Like your use of ad hominem Which is exactly what you did lol Just so you know, it means arguing against the person rather than their point of view for example you calling me a fool rather than attacking my point of view

    Whilst not condoning Bailey Smith’s behaviour I think the answer is in the detail The photographer seems surprised and stated she had no problem with photographing Duncan earlier Different player, different circumstances, she can’t automatically assume that Bailey Smith is okay being...

    Well put and thank you. I do think some on here are overreacting Thank you for encapsulating exactly what went on A couple of things however that are surprising to me is that with Bailey Smith’s mental issues. I am surprised there is not more communication with photographic staff and how he...

    Didn’t say I knew anything abiut you. You’re reaction is very antagonistic Not looking to start a war of words just hoping or trying to educate you about people who suffer from mental demons. Their responses can be overblown, and emotionally charged. Anyway in no way is this about you or me...

    Rumour GFC 2025 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 2

    Gee who knows? Maybe more money for disgruntled other players? Maybe have their eyes on a player from another club (not SDK) I don’t think clubs are that flippant about $800k yet, still can net a very decent player or help grease the wheels of listed players to keep at the club. Truth is we...

    Rumour GFC 2025 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt 2

    Add to all of these good points. If we turn around now and put Guthrie on the long term injury list, what was the point in putting all the work into him over the last couple of years if we just give up on him now. Doubt that happens

    Review Cats spay Demons by 39 points.

    Ah think you might find VFL listed players are not eligible. So not dropped. Plus dropped implies you were elevated into the AFL team first? So if you have never been elevated you can’t be dropped

    News Vale Troy Selwood - passes away aged 40

    Thank you so much for posting such a thoughtful reply. Without going into details this touches on the one thing people (at least very few will know/understand). A person who takes their life is not the person you know, nor the person they really are. Having been lucky enough to survive, I do not...

    Review Geelong whip Eagles by 93 points to secure Top 4 spot

    If GWS beat dogs by literally a few points or more we can’t get second. Ideally we need dogs to win, Freo to win by about three goals or more and we can finish second. Potentially we can also finish third so need GWS and Port to lose (Port by three plus goals) otherwise we’re travelling to port...

    Preview Rd 14 Bye week - time to look ahead.

    I wasn’t suggesting the list of retirees was over the top nor do I suspect Kobe was either. With the exception of Stanley (If we don’t get a back up ruckman) understand the point. What I am saying is 9-10 changes is too deep (including young players, players leaving etc). Taking more than five...

    Preview Rd 14 Bye week - time to look ahead.

    Not what I’m saying. Yes agree we don’t want to kick the can down the road. However don’t need to do in one hit. The drafting hit/miss is getting better all the time, yes you may pick up a diamond in the rough at 50 or 60 but most likely not at 90 or later which is what you get with too many...

    Preview Rd 14 Bye week - time to look ahead.

    My questions for this post are: If we delist Stanley or he retires who backs up Conway? Do we honestly want to make 8- 9 changes? We don’t want to be taking complete Hail Mary picks that late in the draft. We may trade a player or two in, but six draft picks I think is too many. I know it’s...

    Rumour GFC 2023 Player Trading, Drafting FA, Rumours and Wish lists Pt II

    Lot of talk about who retires, who’s delisted etc. My question is: I may be wrong but as I understand it we have two live picks at this point, Cegs and Smith are finished so how do we get all these extra picks to delist/retire/trade all these players mentioned in the preceding pages. Menegola...

    Review Geelong exorcise the Demons by 15 points.

    Must admit I’m always go smacked when players do this, more often than not comes back to bite them. From my observation it’s rarely done by the best players. Big shout out to Ollie Robinson, get a guy out early before carrying on like a complete tool

    MRP / Trib. Geelong MRO & Tribunal decisions 2023

    Exactly, it’s such double standards. The AFL want to be seen doing something to protect players heads, yet a player flying for a mark chooses to put his kness up and smashes an opponent in front, and possibly causing concussion. No case to answer, no duty of care which they keep harping on...

    MRP / Trib. Geelong MRO & Tribunal decisions 2023

    And this is how it started with bumping, look at where that is now? The AFL is jumping at shadows, we must and I believe will challenge this if only because we have so many missing. The only reasonable way to look at this is to consider what Close could have done differently? He didn’t drive...

    Opinion Bomber Thompson vs Chris Scott

    Except in 2013 we didn’t even play in the GF. Big difference In any case anyone who has played at any level or watched football know sometimes the footy gods abandon you. Sliding door moments, if we had done things in 2008 or 2013 differently doesn’t necessarily change things. Both are...

    2024 Membership Discussion

    Just went to book social club ticket for the Dawks game. I assume if it’s showing GA entry it means nothing left in the SClub area. In previous years if I booked a ticket 10 days out or so I was usually ok. Seems more demand I assume this year. Unless we have less space allocated, not sure...
